Answer:

10.4664 grams of CO

Explanation:

Remark

There's a couple of things you must look out for in this question.

1. The use of the term atoms. There are 2 atoms in each mol of CO

2. You need to divide by 2 to find the number of molecules which will lead to moles.

Step one

Divide the number of atoms by 2

4.50 e^23 / 2 atoms = 2.25 * 10^23 molecules.

Step Two

Find the number of moles of CO

1 mol of anything is 6.02 * 10^23 molecules in this case

x = 2.25 * 10^23 molecules

1/x = 6.02 * 10^23/2.25 * 10 ^23 Cross multiply

1 * 2.25 * 10^23 = 6.02*10^23 * x Divide by 6.02 * 10^23

2.25 * 10 ^ 23 / 6.02 * 10^23 = x

x = .3738 moles of CO

Step Three

Find the gram molecular mass of CO

C = 12

O = 16

1 mole = 12 + 16 = 28 grams.

Step Four

Find the number of gram in 0.3738 mols

1 mol = 28 grams

0.3738 mol = x Cross multiply

x = 28 * 0.3738

x = 10.4664 grams

A voltaic cell has a zinc anode and a copper cathode. They are connected by a wire but no salt bridge. What can you predict will

Allisa [31]

The prediction is that B. The electrons will flow to the zinc anode where a negative charge will build up and eventually halt the reaction.

This is known as a chemical element, of the periodic table, that is essential to life and is one of the most widely used metals. Zinc is of considerable commercial importance.

Without the salt bridge, positive and negative charges will build up around the electrodes causing the reaction to stop.

Hence, we know that the purpose of the salt bridge is to keep the solutions electrically neutral and allow the free flow of ions from one cell to another.

What are the Lewis definitions of an acid and a base? In what way are Bronsted definitions? they more general than the In terms

kati45 [8]

Explanation:

Lewis definition of Acids and Bases

Chemical species which are capable of accepting electron pairs or donating protons are called Lewis acid.

Chemical species which are capable of donating electron pairs or accepting protons are called Lewis base.

Bronsted definition of acids and bases

Chemical species which are capable of donating H+ are called Bronsted acids.

Chemical species which are capable of accepting H+ are called Bronsted bases.

So all Bronsted acids are Lewis acids but all Lewis acids are not Bronsted acids.

For a chemical species to behave as Lewis acid, they must have:

Incomplete octet
Double bond
Vacant d-orbitals

For example, in BF3, octet of boron is incomplete, so it can accept a pair of electron and behaves as Lewis acid.

For a chemical species to behave as Lewis base, they must have:

lone pair of electrons

For example, NH3 and OH, both N and O have lone pairs of electrons, hence behave as Lewis base.

Propanoic acid (propionic acid) has the formula CH3CH2COOH. Draw the conjugate base, that is, the structure that results from de

devlian [24]

Answer:

Conjugate base: Propionate

Explanation:

Conjugate base contains one less proton as compared to it's parent acid. Deprotonation occurs from most acidic region.

Propionic acid deprotonates to produce it's strong conjugate base propionate.

In propionic acid, -OH group in -COOH functional moiety dissociates to produce $H^{+}$ . Because the O-H bond electrons remains highly polarized towards oxygen atom due to electron withdrawing inductive effect as well as resonating effect of -COOH moiety.

Structure of conjugate base has been shown below.
