You are given a sample of several compounds to separate by paper chromatography. You draw a pencil line exactly 1.00 cm from the

bottom of the paper, and place a spot of sample on it. You dry the sample, then develop it in a solvent. When the chromatogram is taken out of the solvent, the paper is wet up to 9.2 cm from the bottom of the sheet. The compound you are interested in shows up as a spot 7.1 cm from the bottom of the paper. Calculate the following:
a. How far did the compound move?
b. In the same time, how far did the solvent move?
c. What is the Rf factor for the compound?

Answer:

a) 6.3 cm

b) 8.0 cm

c) 0.7875

Explanation:

(a) The compound has moved above upto 7.3 cm from the bottom of the paper. Let us assume that line is drawn at 1.0 cm mark as the origin of spot. \

Distance traversed by compound= 7.3 - 1.0 cm = 6.3 cm

(b) Distance traversed by the solvent = 9.0 - 1.0 cm = 8.0 cm

(c) The Rf = Compound Migration distance / Solvent front migration distance

                      = 6.3/8.0 = 0.7875

Zinc metal reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce zinc(II) chloride and hydrogen gas. How many liters of hydrogen gas will be
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

0.120 L of hydrogen gas will be produced

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of zinc = 10.0 grams

Volume of hydrochloric acid = 23.8 mL

Molarity of hydrochloric acid = 0.45 M

Molar mass of zinc =65.38 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

Step 3: Calculate moles Zinc

Moles Zn = mass Zn / molar mass Zn

Moles Zn = 10.0 grams / 65.38 g/mol

Moles Zn  =  0.153 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles HCl

Moles HCl = molarity * volume

Moles HCl = 0.45 M * 0.0238 L

Moles HCl = 0.01071 moles

Step 5: Calculate limiting reactant

For 1 mol Zn, we need 2 moles HCl to produce 1 mol ZnCl2 and 1 mol H2

HCl is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (0.01071 moles)

Zn is in excess. There will react 0.01071/2 = 0.005355 moles

There will remain 0.153 - 0.005355 = 0.147645 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles H2

For 1 mol Zn, we need 2 moles HCl to produce 1 mol ZnCl2 and 1 mol H2

For 0.01071 moles HCl we'll have 0.005355 moles H2

Step 7: Calculate volume H2

1 mol at STP = 22.4 L

0.005355 moles = 22.4 * 0.005355 = 0.120 L = 120 mL

0.120 L of hydrogen gas will be produced

Calculate the mass of carbon dioxide produced from complete combustion of 16.6 g of octane, C8H18, in the following reaction. C8
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

51.2g of CO2

Explanation:

The first step is to balance the reaction equation as shown in the solution attached. Without balancing the reaction equation, one can never obtain the correct answer! Then obtain the masses of octane reacted and carbon dioxide produced from the stoichiometric equation. After that, we now compare it with what is given as shown in the image attached.

Based on the sign of E cell, classify these reactions as spontaneous or non spontaneous as written.? assume standard conditions.
sammy [17]
A electrochemical reaction is said to be spontaneous, if E^{0} cell is positive. 

Answer 1:
Consider reaction: <span>Ni^2+ (aq) + S^2- (aq) ----> + Ni (s) + S (s) 

The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
    </span>S^{2-}/S //  Ni^{2+}/Ni

Hence, E^{0}cell =  E^{0} Ni^{2+/Ni} -  E^{0} S/S^{2-}
we know that, {E^{0} Ni^{2+}/Ni  = -0.25 v
and {E^{0} S/ S^{2-}  = -0.47 v

Therefore, E^{0} cell = - 0.25 - (-0.47) = 0.22 v

Since,  E^{0} cell is positive, hence cell reaction is spontaneous
.....................................................................................................................

Answer 2: 
Consider reaction: <span>Pb^2+ (aq) +H2 (g) ----> Pb (s) +2H^+ (aq)
</span>
The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
    H_{2} /  H^{+} //  Pb^{2+} /Pb

Hence, E^{0}cell = E^{0} Pb/Pb^{2+} - E^{0} H_{2}/H^{+}
we know that, {E^{0} Pb^{2+}/Pb = -0.126 v
and {E^{0} H_{2}/ H^{+} = -0 v

Therefore, E^{0} cell = - 0.126 - 0 = -0.126 v

Since,  E^{0} cell is negative, hence cell reaction is non-spontaneous.

....................................................................................................................

Answer 3: 
Consider reaction: <span>2Ag^+ (aq) + Cr(s) ---> 2 Ag (s) +Cr^2+ (aq)
</span>
The cell representation of above reaction is given by;
    Cr/Cr^{2+} // Ag^{+}/Ag

Hence, E^{0}cell = E^{0} Ag^{+}/Ag - E^{0} Cr/Cr^{2+}
we know that, {E^{0} Ag^{+}/Ag = -0.22 v
and {E^{0} Cr/ Cr^{2+} = -0.913 v

Therefore, E^{0} cell = - 0.22 - (-0.913) = 0.693 v

Since,  E^{0} cell is positive, hence cell reaction is spontaneous
