A student is given a 2.002 g sample of unknown acid and is told that it might be butanoic acid, a monoprotic acid (HC4H7O2, equa

Elina [12.6K]

Answer: The identity of the unknown acid is butanoic acid or ascorbic acid.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.570 M

Volume of solution = 39.55 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.570M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}\times 1000}{39.55}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=\frac{0.570\times 39.55}{1000}=0.0225mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and monoprotic acid follows:

$NaOH+HX\rightarrow NaX+H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of HX

So, moles of monoprotic acid = 0.0225 moles

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and diprotic acid follows:

$2NaOH+H_2X\rightarrow 2NaX+2H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of diprotic acid

So, moles of diprotic acid = $\frac{0.0225}{2}=0.01125moles$

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

For butanoic acid:

Mass of butanoic acid = 2.002 g

Molar mass of butanoic acid = 88 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of butanoic acid}=\frac{2.002g}{88g/mol}=0.02275mol$

For L-tartaric acid:

Mass of L-tartaric acid = 2.002 g

Molar mass of L-tartaric acid = 150 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of L-tartaric acid}=\frac{2.002g}{150g/mol}=0.0133mol$

For ascorbic acid:

Mass of ascorbic acid = 2.002 g

Molar mass of ascorbic acid = 176 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of ascorbic acid}=\frac{2.002g}{176g/mol}=0.01137mol$

As, the number of moles of butanoic acid and ascorbic acid is equal to the number of moles of acid getting neutralized.

Hence, the identity of the unknown acid is butanoic acid or ascorbic acid.

Convert 16.8 L of nitrogen monoxide gas at STP to grams .

german

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L

x moles occupies 16.8 L

x = 1 mole * 16.8 L/22.4 L

x = 0.75 moles

number of moles = mass/molar mass

mass = number of moles * molar mass

mass = 0.75 moles * 30.01 g/mol = 22.5075 g = 2.25 * 10^1 g

the coefficient of the scientific notation answer = 2.25

the exponent of the scientific notation answer = 1

significant figures are there in the answer = 6

the right most significant figure in the answer = 3

number of moles = 12.5g/38g/mol = 0.3289 moles

1 mole occupies 22.4 L

0.3289 moles occupies 0.3289 moles * 22.4 L/1 mole

= 7.36736 L = 7.36736 * 10^0 L= 7.37 * 10^0 L

the coefficient of the scientific notation answer =7.37

the exponent of the scientific notation answer = 0

significant figures are there in the answer = 6

the right most significant figure in the answer= 3

Law Incorporation [45]

Aspartame (C₁₄H₁₈N₂O₅) is a solid used as an artificial sweetener. its combustion produces carbon dioxide gas, liquid water, and nitrogen gas

C₁₄H₁₈N₂O₅ + 16O₂-----> 14CO₂ + 9H₂O + N₂.

As it can be seen from the equation, that the coefficient of nitrogen gas in the balanced equation for the reaction is 1.

So the answer here is 1 only that is coefficient of nitrogen gas in the balanced equation for the reaction is 1.
