When the molar mass M = mass (g)/ no.of moles (Mol)

∴ moles= 0.271 g / M

By using the gas equation:

PV = n RT

when P is the pressure = 847 mmHg / 760 = 1.11 atm

V is the volume = 0.294 L

n = 0.271 / M

R is constant = 0.0821 

T= 140+273 = 413 K

so by substitution:

when n = PV/RT

∴ 0.271/ M = 1.11 atm *0.294 L/ 0.0821 *413

∴ M = 28 


when the empirical formula of CH2 = 12+2 = 14 

∴ the exact no.of moles = 28/14 = 2

∴the molecular formula = 2(CH2) = C2H4

ValentinkaMS [17]

Based on the stoichiometry of the reaction, 156.114 g of CuNO3 are required to produce 88.0 grams of aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3.

<h3>What is stoichiometry of a reaction?</h3>

The stoichiometry of a reaction is the molar ratio in which reactants combine to form products.

The stoichiometry of the reaction shows that 6 moles of copper (i) nitrate produces 2 moles of aluminium nitrate.

molar mass of Copper(I) nitrate, CuNO3 = 126 g

molar mass of aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3 = 213 g

88.0 g of aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3 = 88.0/213 moles = 0.413 moles

0.413 moles of Al(NO3)3 will be produced by 0.413 ×6/3 = 1.239 moles of CuNO3

Mass of 1.239 moles of CuNO3 = 1.239 × 126 = 156.114 g of CuNO3

Therefore, 156.114 g of CuNO3 are required to produce 88.0 grams of aluminum nitrate, Al(NO3)3.

Therefore, 156.114 g of CuNO3

2 C4H10 + 13 O2--&gt; 8 CO2 + 10 H2O
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

4.14 x 10²⁴ molecules CO₂

Explanation:

2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ --> 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O

To find the number of CO₂ molecules, you need to start with 100 grams of butane (C₄H₁₀), convert to moles (using the molar mass), convert to moles of CO₂ (using coefficients from equation), then convert to molecules (using Avagadro's number). The molar mass of C₄H₁₀ is calculated using the quantity of each element (subscript) multiplied by the number on the periodic table. The ratios should be arranged in a way that allows for units to be cancelled.

4(12.011g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol) = 58.124 g/mol C₄H₁₀

100 grams C₄H₁₀          1 mol C₄H₁₀             8 mol CO₂

In your discussion consider a SN2 reaction mechanism concept. Propose a modification of experimental procedure that would improv
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

You may have done a Williamson synthesis of guaifenesin by reacting guaiacol with 3-chloropropane-1,2-diol.

A. Mechanism

Step 1

NaOH converts guaiacol into a phenoxide ion.

Step 2

The phenoxide acts as the nucleophile in an SN2 reaction to displace the Cl from the alkyl halide.

B. Improve the yield

You probably carried out the reaction in ethanol solution — a polar protic solvent.

You might try doing the reaction in a polar aprotic solvent— perhaps DMSO.

A polar aprotic solvent does not hydrogen bond to nucleophiles, so they become stronger.

C. Another method of ether synthesis —dehydration of alcohols

Sulfuric acid catalyzes the conversion of primary alcohols to ethers.

This is also a nucleophilic displacement reaction.

Protonation of the OH converts it into a better leaving group.

Attack by a second molecule of alcohol forms the protonated ether.

A molecule of water then removes the proton.
