You find a little bit (0.150g) of a chemical marked Tri-Nitro-Toluene, and upon combusting it in oxygen, collect 0.204 g of CO2

and 0.030 g H2O (we’ll assume that these are the products, along with nitrogen). You know that TNT is made up solely of C, H, O, and N, and that it contains 18.5% nitrogen by mass.

1) Answer is: the formula is C₇N₃O₆H₅.

M(TNT) = 0.150 g; mass of the trinitrotoluene.

ω(N) = 18.5% ÷ 100%.

ω(N) = 0.185; mass percentage of the nitrogen.

m(N) = 0.150 g · 0.185.

m(N) = 0.02775 ·; mass of the nitrogen.

n(N) = 0.02775 g ÷ 14 g/mol.

n(N) = 0.002 mol; amount of the nitrogen.

n(CO₂) = 0.204 g ÷ 44 g/mol.

n(CO₂) = 0.0046 mol.

n(C) = n(CO₂) = 0.0046 mol; amount of the carbon.

m(C) = 0.0046 mol · 12 g/mol.

m(C) = 0.0552 g; mass of the carbon.

n(H₂O) = 0.030 g ÷ 18 g/mol.

n(H₂O) = 0.00166 mol.

n(H) = 2 · n(H₂O) = 0.0033 mol; amount of the hydrogen.

m(H) = 0.0033 mol · 1 g/mol.

m(H) = 0.0033 g; mass of the hydrogen.

2) m(O) = m(TNT) - m(N) - m(C) - m(H).  

m(O) = 0.150 g - 0.02775 g - 0.0552 g - 0.0033 g.

m(O) = 0.06375 g.

n(O) = 0.06375 g ÷ 16 g/mol.

n(O) = 0.004 mol; amount of oxygen.

n(C) : n(N) : n(O) : n(H) = 0.0046 mol : 0.002 mol : 0.004 mol : 0.0033 mol.

n(C) : n(N) : n(O) : n(H) = 2.33 : 1 : 2 : 1.66 /×3.

n(C) : n(N) : n(O) : n(H) = 7 : 3 : 6 : 5.

The majority of wind turbines consist of three blades mounted to a tower made from tubular steel. There are less common varieties with two blades, or with concrete or steel lattice towers. At 100 feet or more above the ground, the tower allows the turbine to take advantage of faster wind speeds found at higher altitudes.

Turbines catch the wind's energy with their propeller-like blades, which act much like an airplane wing. When the wind blows, a pocket of low-pressure air forms on one side of the blade. The low-pressure air pocket then pulls the blade toward it, causing the rotor to turn. This is called lift. The force of the lift is much stronger than the wind's force against the front side of the blade, which is called drag. The combination of lift and drag causes the rotor to spin like a propeller. So therefore your answer would be A.

What stress will shift the following equilibrium system to the left?
Alona [7]

<u>Answer:</u> Increasing temperature

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Principle of Le Chatelier states that <u>if a system in equilibrium is subjected to a change of conditions, it will move to a new position in order to counteract the effect that disturbed it and recover the state of equilibrium. </u>

The variation of one or several of the following factors can alter the equilibrium condition in a chemical reaction:

  • Temperature
  • The pressure
  • The volume
  • The concentration of reactants or products

In the case of the reaction in the question, <u>the change that moves the balance to the left will be the one that moves it towards the reagents</u>, that is, that favors the production of reagents instead of products.

  • Decreasing the concentration of SO3 and increasing the concentration of SO2 <u>will favor the production of SO3</u>, which is the product of the reaction.
  • Decreasing the volume increases the pressure of the system and the balance will move to where there is less number of moles. In the case of the reaction in question, we have 3 moles of molecules in the reactants (1 mole of O2 + 2 moles of SO2) while in the products there are 2 moles of SO3 only, therefore, <u>decreasing the volume will displace the balance to the right</u>, which corresponds to the sense in which there is less number of moles.

The reaction of the question is an exothermic since ΔH <0, therefore in the reaction heat is produced and it can be written in the following way,

2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2SO3(g) + heat

  • So, if we increase the temperature we will be adding heat to the system, so the balance would move to the left to compensate for the excess heat in the system.

scandium47 has a half-life of 35s. suppose you have a 45g sample of scadium 47 how much of the sample remains unchanged after 14
Mars2501 [29]

 The much  of the sample that would remain  unchanged  after 140 seconds is 2.813 g

Explanation

Half life  is time taken for the quantity  to reduce  to half its original value.

if the half life  for Scandium  is 35 sec, then the number  of half life in 140 seconds

=140 sec/ 35 s = 4 half life

Therefore 45 g after first half life = 45 x1/2 =22.5 g

               22.5 g after second half life = 22.5 x 1/2 =11.25 g

            11.25 g after third half life = 11.25 x 1/2 = 5.625 g

             5.625 after  fourth half life = 5.625 x 1/2 = 2.813

therefore 2.813 g  of Scandium 47 remains  unchanged.

What pressure is required to reduce 40 ml of a gas at standard conditions to 20 ml at a temperature of 21?c? answer in units of
ElenaW [278]
If you need half the volume, you need double the pressure (V * p). Normal air pressure in the atmosphere is 101300 Pa so that means you need double that, thus 202600 Pa (or 2,026 bars)
