7. How many liters of NH3, at STP will react with 10.6 g O2 to form NO2 and water? 4NH3(g) + 7O2(g) → 4NO2(g) + 6H2O(g) *

Alexus [3.1K]

7) Answer is: c. 4.24 L.

Balanced chemical reaction: 4NH₃(g) + 7O₂(g) → 4NO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g).

m(O₂) = 10.6 g; mass of oxygen.

n(O₂) = m(O₂) ÷ M(O₂).

n(O₂) = 10.6 g ÷ 32 g/mol.

n(O₂) = 0.33 mol; amount of oxygen.

Vm = 22.4 L/mol; molar volume at STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure).

At STP one mole of gas occupies 22.4 liters of volume.

V(O₂) = n(O₂) · Vm.

V(O₂) = 0.33 mol · 22.4 L/mol.

V(O₂) = 7.42 L; volume of oxygen.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(O₂) : n(NH₃) = 7 : 4.

n(NH₃) = 4 · 0.33 mol ÷ 7.

n(NH₃) = 0.188 mol; amount of ammonia.

V(NH₃) = 0.188 mol · 22.4 L/mol.

V(NH₃) = 4.24 L.

8) Answer is: a. 3.7 g.

Balanced chemical reaction: P₄(g) + 6H₂(g) → 4PH₃(g).

m(P₄) = 3.4 g; mass of phosphorous.

n(P₄) = m(P₄) ÷ M(P₄).

n(P₄) = 3.4 g ÷ 123.9 g/mol.

n(P₄) = 0.0274 mol; limiting reactant.

n(H₂) = 4 g ÷ 2 g/mol.

n(H₂) = 2 mol; amount of hydrogen.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(P₄) : n(PH₃) = 1 : 4.

n(PH₃) = 4 · 0.0274 mol.

n(PH₃) = 0.1096 mol.

m(PH₃) = 0.1096 mol · 34 g/mol.

m(PH₃) = 3.726 g.

9) Answer is: d. Percent yield is the ratio of theoretical yield to actual yield expressed as a percent.

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield.

Theoretical yield is the maximum amount of product that can be produced from limiting reactant and actual yield is a product that is obtained by experimentation.

For example:

the percent yield = 250 g ÷ 294.24 g · 100%.

the percent yield = 84.5 %.

Menthol, the substance we can smell in mentholated cough drops, is composed of C, H, and O. A 0.1005 g sample of menthol is comb

Bogdan [553]

Answer: The molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=0.2829g$

Mass of $H_2O=0.1159g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.2829 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.2829=0.077g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.1159 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.1159=0.0129g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.1005) - (0.077 + 0.0129) = 0.0106 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.077g}{12g/mole}=0.0064moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.0129g}{1g/mole}=0.0129moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.0106g}{16g/mole}=0.00066moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.00066 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.0064}{0.00066}=9.69\approx 10$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.0129}{0.00064}=19.54\approx 20$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.00066}{0.00066}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 10 : 20 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{10}H_{20}O_1=C_{10}H_{20}O$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

$n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 156.27 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 156 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{156.27g/mol}{156g/mol}=1$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(1\times 10)}H_{(1\times 20)}O_{(1\times 1)}=C_{10}H_{20}O$

Thus, the molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$
