Answer:

S = 21.92 %

F = 78.08 %

Explanation:

To find the percent composition of each element in SF6, we must find the molar mass of SF6 first.

Molar mass of SF6 = 32 + 19(6)

= 32 + 114

= 146g/mol

mass of Sulphur (S) in SF6 = 32g

mass of Fluorine (F) in SF6 = 114g

Percent composition = mass of element/molar mass of compound × 100

- % composition of S = 32/146 × 100 = 21.92%.

- % composition of F = 114/146 × 100 = 78.08%.

When ethyl ether is heated with excess HI for several hours, the only organic product obtained is ethyl iodide. T/F

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Ethers react with HI to form the corresponding alcohols and alkyl iodides.

Similarly, ethyl ether react with excess of HI to form ethanol and ethyl iodide. But in the excess of HI as mentioned in the question, ethanol too undergoes $S^{N}2$ reaction with HI to form ethyl iodide.

<u>Hence, ethyl iodide is the only product when ethyl ether reacts with excess of HI for several hours.</u>

You determine the volume of your plastic bag (simulated human stomach) is 1.08 L. How many grams of NaHCO3 (s) are required to f

dsp73

Answer:

3.636 grams of sodium bicarbonate is required.

Explanation:

Using ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of gas = 753.5 mmHg = 0.9914 atm

( $1 atm = 760 mmHg$ )

V = Volume of gas = 1.08 L

n = number of moles of gas = ?

R = Gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of gas = 24.5 °C= 297.65 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$(0.9914 atm)\times 1.08 L=n\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 297.65K\\\\n=0.0438 mole$

Percentage recovery of carbon dioxide gas = 49.4%

Actual moles of carbon dioxide formed: 49.4% of 0.0438 mole

$\frac{49.4}{100}\times 0.0438 mol=0.02164 mol$

$2NaHCO_3\righarrow Na_2CO_3+H_2O+CO_2$

According to reaction ,1 mol is obtained from 2 moles of sodium bicarbonate.

Then 0.02164 moles f carbon dioxide will be obtained from:

$\frac{2}{1}\times 0.02164 mol=0.04328 mol$

Mass of 0.04328 moles pf sodium bicarbonate:

0.04328 mol × 84 g/mol = 3.636 g

3.636 grams of sodium bicarbonate is required.

58. Explain why each successive ionization of an electron

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

It's because removal of electron from an atom, reduces the size of an atom.

Explanation:

When an electron is removed from an atom, it becomes an ion and in this case it will become a postive ion.

When an electron is removed from an atom, the charge balance of an atom is disturbed and positive charge increases in comparison to the negative charge. This results in increase nuclear (positive) charge which exerts greater attraction on the remaining electrons and as a result the remaining electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus and in this way the atomic size is decreased. Due to this increased nuclear attraction and reduced atomic size, it bcomes difficult to remove more electeon from the positively charged ion of reduced size. This is the reason that each successive ionization of electron requires a greater amount of energy.

The ionization energy has inverse relation with the size or radius of an atom. This also justifies the reason that why each successive ionization of an electron requires greater amount of energy.
