A 558 mg of a mixture of fluorene and benzoic acid was weighed out and subjected to an extraction and recrystallization. After t

his purification was completed the product crystals were dried and analyzed. The purification procedure produced 185 mg of fluorene and 144 mg of benzoic acid. Calculate the percent composition of this mixture.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Mass of mixture of  fluorene and benzoic acid = 558 mg

Mass of pure fluorene  after purification = 185 mg of fluorene

Mass of pure  benzoic acid after purification = 144 mg of benzoic acid

Percentage of fluorene int he mixture = 185mg/558mg * 100 = 33.15 %

Percentage of benzoic acid in the mixture = 144mg/558mg * 100 = 25.81 %

Percentage of impurities = 100% - [33.15 + 25.81]

Percentage of impurities = 100 - 58.96

Percentage of impurities = 41.04 %

What mass of Cu(s) is electroplated by running 24.5A of current through a Cu2+(aq)solution for 4.00 h?Express your answer to thr
Masja [62]

Answer: 116 g of copper

Explanation:

Q=I\times t

where Q= quantity of electricity in coloumbs

I = current in amperes = 24.5A

t= time in seconds =  4.00 hr = 4.00\times 3600s=14400s  (1hr=3600s)

Q=24.5A\times 14400s=352800C

Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu

2\times 96500C=193000C  of electricity deposits 63.5 g of copper.

352800 C of electricity deposits = \frac{63.5}{193000}\times 352800=116g of copper.

Thus 116 g of Cu(s) is electroplated by running 24.5A of current

Thus  remaining in solution = (0.1-0.003)=0.097moles

Why are gases compressible
Kamila [148]

Hi my dear friend,

The atoms, ions, or molecules that make up the solid or liquid are very close together. There is no space between the individual particles, so they cannot pack together. ... Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles.

~Thank you
