Answer: The correct answer is the ratio of oxygen atoms to hydrogen atoms in a molecule of sugar is 2 to 1.

Explanation:

The given chemical formula for table sugar is $C_{12}H_{11}O_{22}$ .

The above compound contains 12 atoms of carbon atom, 11 atoms of hydrogen and 22 atoms of oxygen.

The ratio of oxygen atoms to hydrogen atoms is $22:11::2:1$ and the ratio of carbon atoms to hydrogen atoms in a molecule of sugar is $12:11$

An oxygen atom contains 8 protons and a carbon atoms has 6 electrons.

Hence, the correct statement is the ratio of oxygen atoms to hydrogen atoms in a molecule of sugar is 2 to 1.

g Calculate the pOH of a solution that results from mixing 23.3 mL of 0.16 M trimethylamine ((CH3)3N) with 44.1 mL of 0.15 M (CH

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

pOH = 5.961

Explanation:

To find the pH of a weak base we can use Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for weak bases:

pOH = pKb + log [(CH₃)₃NHCl] / [(CH₃)₃N]

Where pKb is -log Kb = 4.187 and [] could be taken as moles of each specie.

Moles (CH₃)₃NHCl:

0.0441L * (0.15mol/L) = 6.615x10⁻³moles

Moles (CH₃)₃N:

0.0233L * (0.16mol/L) = 3.728x10⁻³moles

And pOH is:

pOH = pKb + log [(CH₃)₃NHCl] / [(CH₃)₃N]

pOH = 4.187 + log [6.615x10⁻³moles] / [3.728x10⁻³moles]
