A 5.5 gg sample of a substance contains only carbon and oxygen. Carbon makes up 35%% of the mass of the substance. The rest is m

ade of oxygen. You are asked to determine the mass of oxygen in the sample. Which of the following expressions demonstrates a mathematical procedure to solve this problem using the proper order of operations?
a. ((100 - 35)/100) times 5.5 grams =
b. 100 - 35/100 times 5.5 grams =
c. 100 - (35/100) times 5.5 grams=

Answer:

a. ((100 - 35)/100) times 5.5 grams = 3.575 g

Explanation:

Given that:

The sample of carbon and oxygen = 5.5g

where carbon makes 35% of the mass of the substances.

It implies that oxygen will make: (100 - 35)% = 65%

Suppose y be the mass of the oxygen;

Then:

y = \dfrac{(100-35)}{100} \times 5.5 \ g

y = \dfrac{(65)} {100} \times 5.5 \ g

y = 3.575 \ g

The mass of carbon = \dfrac{35}{100} \times 5.5 \ g

= 1.925 g

An unknown compound displays singlets at δ 2.1 ppm and 2.56 ppm in the ratio of 3:2. what is the structure of the compound?
olasank [31]

1) As can be seen from any 1H NMR chemical shift ppm tables, hydrogens which have δ values from 2ppm to 2.3ppm are hydrogens from carbon which is bonded to a carbonyl group. From this, we can conclude that our hydrogens belong to the type, but from 2 different alkyl groups because of 2 different signals.

 

2) So, one alkyl group is CH3 and second one can be CH or CH2.

 

3) If we know that ratio between two types of hydrogens is 3:2, it can be concluded that second alkyl group is CH2. 


4) Finally, we don't have any other signals and it indicates that part of the compound which continues on CH2 is exactly the same as the first part.

The ratio remains the same, 3:2 ie 6:4
