Molybdenum can form a wide series of halide compounds, including four different fluoride compounds. The percent by mass of molyb

denum in the four compounds is 63.0%,
56.0%,
50.0%,
and 46.0%.
Determine the formula and name for each of the four different molybdenum fluorides.

The formula and names of the compounds are:

1. Formula of compound => MoF₃

Name of compound => Molybdenum trifluoride

2. Formula of compound => MoF₄

Name of compound => Molybdenum tetrafluoride

3. Formula of compound => MoF₅

Name of compound => Molybdenum pentafluoride  

4. Formula of compound => MoF₆

Name of compound => Molybdenum hexafluoride  

1. Determination of the name and formula of the molybdenum fluoride having 63.0% of molybdenum.

Molybdenum (Mo) = 63.0%

Fluorine (F) = 100 – 63 = 37%

<h3>Formula =? </h3>

Mo = 63.0%

F = 37%

Divide by their molar mass

Mo = 63.0 / 96 = 0.656

F = 37 / 19 = 1.947

Divide by the smallest

Mo = 0.656 / 0.656 = 1

F = 1.947 / 0.656 = 3

Therefore,

Formula of compound => MoF₃

Name of compound => Molybdenum trifluoride

2. Determination of the name and formula of the molybdenum fluoride having 56.0% of molybdenum.

Molybdenum (Mo) = 56.0%,

Fluorine (F) = 100 – 56 = 44%

<h3>Formula =? </h3>

Mo = 56%

F = 44%

Divide by their molar mass

Mo = 56 / 96 = 0.583

F = 44 / 19 = 2.316

Divide by the smallest

Mo = 0.583 / 0.583 = 1

F = 2.316 / 0.583 = 4

Therefore,

Formula of compound => MoF₄

Name of compound => Molybdenum tetrafluoride

3. Determination of the name and formula of the molybdenum fluoride having 50.0% of molybdenum.

Molybdenum (Mo) = 50.0%,

Fluorine (F) = 100 – 50 = 50%

<h3>Formula =? </h3>

Mo = 50%

F = 50%

Divide by their molar mass

Mo = 50 / 96 = 0.520

F = 50 / 19 = 2.632

Divide by the smallest

Mo = 0.520 / 0.520 = 1

F = 2.632 / 0.520 = 5

Therefore,

Formula of compound => MoF₅

Name of compound => Molybdenum pentafluoride  

4. Determination of the name and formula of the molybdenum fluoride having 46.0% of molybdenum.

Molybdenum (Mo) = 46.0%,

Fluorine (F) = 100 – 46 = 54%

<h3>Formula =? </h3>

Mo = 46%

F = 54%

Divide by their molar mass

Mo = 46 / 96 = 0.479

F = 54 / 19 = 2.842

Divide by the smallest

Mo = 0.479 / 0.479 = 1

F = 2.842 / 0.479 = 6

Therefore,

Formula of compound => MoF₆

Name of compound => Molybdenum hexafluoride

5.36 liters of nitrogen gas are at STP. What would be the new volume if we increased the moles from 3.5 moles to 6.0 moles?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

V_2=9.20L

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given STP (standard pressure and temperature), it is possible for us to realize that the equation to use here is the Avogadro's law as a directly proportional relationship between moles and volume:

\frac{V_2}{n_2}= \frac{V_1}{n_1}

In such a way, given the initial volume and both initial and final moles, we can easily compute the final volume as shown below:

V_2= \frac{V_1n_2}{n_1} \\\\V_2=\frac{5.36L*6.0mol}{3.5mol}\\\\V_2=9.20L

Best regards!

The antibiotic prontosil, developed by bayer pharmaceuticals in 1932, was used in saving the life of president roosevelt's son f
Alja [10]

Prontosil is a compound produced by the coupled reaction of an aryldiazonium ion and an aromatic compound.

<h3>What are diazonium compounds?</h3>

These are organic compounds in which there are ionic interactions between the azo group (-N₂⁺) and an anion X⁻.

The general structure is RN₂⁺X⁻.

  • R is the lateral chain that might be an aromatic ring, among other options.
  • N₂⁺ is the azo group
  • X⁻ is the anion

The azo group characterizes as being unstable and reactive. This property is because one of the N atoms has a positive charge.

-N⁺≡ N

<h3>What is the coupling reaction of aryldiazonium compounds?</h3>

Aryldiazonium salt reactions can occur in two ways,

  • Substitution reactions
  • Coupling reactions

Coupling reactions are the aromatic electrophilic substitution, where the aryldiazonium ion acts as an electrophile for an activated aromatic compound to attack it.

The coupling reaction occurs at the azo group level.

In the exposed example,

  • the benzene ring with sulfur bonded to oxygen atoms is the coupling component
  • the benzene ring with NH₂ and the azo group is the diazonium ion

In the attached files you will find the drawings.
