One difference between molecular formula and molecular weight.

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: The formula mass (formula weight) of a molecule is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in its empirical formula. The molecular mass (molecular weight) of a molecule is its average mass as calculated by adding together the atomic weights of the atoms in the molecular formula.

Hope this helps.... Stay safe and have a great weekend!!!!! :D

A solution that has a relatively large quantity of solute dissolved in the solvent is:? and please explain the answer

seraphim [82]

A solution that has a high amount of solute/concentration in the solvent is concentrated because if there is a lot of solute compared to the solvent, then the ratio of solute to solvent is higher, and thus the concentration is higher too.
Hope this helps!

A student did not read the direction to the experiment properly and mixed up where to place the NaOH solution and the vinegar. H

Mariana [72]

Answer:

At end point there will a transition from pink to colorless.

Explanation:

As the student put the vinegar in the titrator and NaOH in the beaker, it means that he has poured phenolphthalein in the NaOH solution.

The pH range of phenolphthalein is 8.3-10 (approx), it means it will show pink color in basic medium.

So on addition of phenolphthalein in NaOH the solution will become pink in color.

When we start pouring vinegar from titrator neutralization of NaOH will begin.

On complete neutralization , on addition of single drop of vinegar the solution will become acidic and there will be complete disappearance of pink color solution in the beaker.

What volume does 2.25g of nitrogen gas, N2, occupy at 273 Celsius and 1.02 atm

kotykmax [81]

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

0.126 Liters

<h2><u>Explanation:</u></h2>

V = mRT / mmP

First, convert the 2.25g of Nitrogen gas into moles. (m in the equation above)

2.25g x 1 mole / 28.0g = 0.08036 moles = m

28.0g = mm

Next, convert the 273 Celsius into Kelvin. (T in the equation above)

273 Celsius + 273.15 = 546.15K = T

R = 0.08206L*atm/mol*K

(Quick Note: The R changes depending on the Pressure Unit so do not use this number every time.)

Now, plug everything into the equation.

V = (0.08036)(0.08206)(546.15)/(28.0)(1.02)

V = 0.126 L

What is the name of this hydrocarbon? 2-dimethylyne 2-methylbutane 4-methylbutene 4,3-methylbutyne 4,4-methylbutane

Alisiya [41]

You have shown no structure, still we can work out for the answer :).

First Option: <span>2-dimethylyne: This name is incorrect, because it does not contain any parent chain name.

Second Option: </span><span>2-methylbutane: I have drawn its structure below, compare it with your structure.

Third Option: </span>4-methylbutene:<span> I have drawn the structure for this name. But this name is also against IUPAC rules, and its correct name is 1-Pentene.

Fourth Option: </span><span>4,3-methylbutyne: Again incorrect name, 4,3 are two positions, but here only one substituent is given (methyl). I have drawn structure of 3,4-Dimethylbutene, this name is incorrect, and the correct name for this compound is 3-Methyl-1-pentene.

Fifth Option: </span><span>4,4-methylbutane: Again incorrect name, 4,4 means at 4 position two substituents, but in name only methyl is given. Anyhow lets make it two and draw a structure, for 4,4-Dimethylbutane. Ooops!! This name is also incorrect, and the correct name for this compound is 2-Methylpentane.

Result:
Among all options only, option B (2-Methylbutane) is correctly named, and this will be the correct name for the structure given to you. </span>
