Answer:

54.5%

Explanation:

The percentage composition of oxygen in C₆H₈O₆ can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of C₆H₈O₆ = (12×6) + (8×1) + (16×6)

= 72 + 8 + 96

= 176 g/mol

Next, there are 6 oxygen atoms in C₆H₈O₆. Therefore the mass of oxygen in C₆H₈O₆ is:

Mass of Oxygen = 16 × 6 = 96 g

Finally, we shall determine the percentage composition of oxygen in C₆H₈O₆ as follow:

Percentage of oxygen =

Mass of Oxygen/mass of C₆H₈O₆ × 100

Percentage of oxygen = 96 / 176 × 100

Percentage of oxygen = 54.5%

Thus, the percentage composition of oxygen in C₆H₈O₆ is 54.5%.

What mass of H2 is needed to react with 8.75 g of O2 according to the following equation: O2(g) + H2(g) → H2O(g)?

Alika [10]

Answer:- B: $1.10g H_2$ is the right answer.

Solution:- The balanced equation is:

$O_2(g)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(g)$

We have been given with 8.75 grams of oxygen and asked to calculate the grams of hydrogen needed to react with given grams of oxygen according to the balanced equation.

From balanced equation, 1 mole of oxygen reacts with 2 moles of hydrogen.

So, let's convert grams of oxygen to moles and multiply it by the mole ratio to calculate the moles of hydrogen that are easily converted to grams on multiplying by it's molar mass.

The complete set up looks as:

$8.75g O_2(\frac{1mole}{32g})(\frac{2mole H_2}{1mole O_2})(\frac{2.02g}{1mole})$

= $1.10g H_2$

Hence, the right option is B: $1.10g H_2$ .

Aspirin can be prepared from salicylic acid ( C 7 H 6 O 3 CX7HX6OX3), which has a molar mass of 138.12 g/mol, and acetic anhydri

pychu [463]

Answer: The theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

$\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$ $\text{Moles of salicylic acid}=\frac{3.20g}{138.12g/mol}=0.023moles$

mass of acetic anhydride = $density\times volume =1.082g/ml\times 3.71ml=4.01g$

$\text{Moles of acetic anhydride}=\frac{4.01g}{102.04g/mol}=0.039moles$

$C_9H_6O_3+C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4+C_2H_3O_2$

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of salycylic acid require 1 mole of acetic anhydride

Thus 0.023 moles of salycylic acid require= $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.023=0.023moles$ of acetic anhydride

Thus salycylic acid is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and acetic anhydride is the excess reagent.

As 1 mole of salycylic give = 1 mole of aspirin

Thus 0.023 moles of salycylic acid give = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.023=0.023moles$ of aspirin

Mass of aspirin = $moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.023moles\times 180.15g/mol=4.14g$

Thus theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g

A 215-g sample of copper metal at some temperature is added to 26.6 g of water. The initial water temperature is 22.22 oC, and t

andrezito [222]

The initial temperature of the copper metal was 27.38 degrees.

Explanation:

Data given:

mass of the copper metal sample = 215 gram

mass of water = 26.6 grams

Initial temperature of water = 22.22 Degrees

Final temperature of water = 24.44 degrees

Specific heat capacity of water = 0.385 J/g°C

initial temperature of copper material , Ti=?

specific heat capacity of water = 4.186 joule/gram °C

from the principle of:

heat lost = heat gained

heat gained by water is given by:

q water = mcΔT

Putting the values in the equation:

qwater = 26.6 x 4.186 x (2.22)

qwater = 247.19 J

qcopper = 215 x 0.385 x (Ti-24.4)

= 82.77Ti - 2019.71

Now heat lost by metal = heat gained by water

82.77Ti - 2019.71 = 247.19

Ti = 27.38 degrees

1. Which graph shows the melting of crystalline solids? Explain your reasoning.

madreJ [45]

(1) The melting of a crystalline solid is best depicted by the second graph. This is because, the second graph shows a horizontal line which means that for a while there was no change in temperature. This zone is the latent heat of fusion.

(2) The first graph shows the graph of a solid that is just heated but does not experience phase change. However, the second graph shows a solid that changes phase (from crystal/solid to liquid).
