Paul [167]2 years ago
5 0

In 1854, Cyrus West Field conceived the idea of the telegraph cable and secured a charter to lay a well-insulated line across the floor of the Atlantic Ocean. Obtaining the aid of British and American naval ships, he made four unsuccessful attempts, beginning in 1857.

Density measurements were conducted on a 22.5oC sample of water which had a theoretical density of 0.997655 g/ml. A volume of 10
Sophie [7]

Let's divide the three experiments: The experiment with 10.00 mL of water is A), the experiment with 15.00 mL is B), and the experiment with 25.00 mL is C).

  • (1) Now let's calculate the experimental density of each experiment. Density (ρ) is equal to the mass divided by the volume, thus:

p_{A} =9.98g/10.00mL=0.998g/mL\\p_{B} =15.61g/15.00mL=1.041g/mL\\p_{C} =25.65g/25.00mL=1.026g/mL

  • (2)To calculate the average density, we add each density and divide the result by the number of experiments (in this case 3):

p_{average}=\frac{p_{1}+p_{2}+p_{3}}{3}   \\p_{average}=\frac{(0.998+1.041+1.026)g/mL}{3}\\p_{average}=1.022g/mL

  • (3) The percent error is calculated by dividing the absolute value of the substraction of the theorethical and experimental values, by the theoretical value, times 100:

%error=\frac{|p_{average}-p_{theoretical}|}{p_{theoretical}} *100

%error=\frac{|1.022g/mL-0.997655g/mL|}{0.997655g/mL}*100

%error=2.44 %

Which of the following compounds has the most deshielded protons?A) CH3ClB) CH3IC) CH3BrD) CH4
Korolek [52]

Given :

Some compounds :

A)\ CH_3Cl\ B)\ CH_3I\ C)\ CH_3Br\ D)\ CH_4 .

To Find :

Which of the following compounds has the most deshielded protons .

Solution :

Deshielded means nucleus whose chemical shift has been increased due to removal of electron density, magnetic induction, or other effects .

In simple words deshielding means the ability to shift protons .

Now , among Cl , I , Br and H . Cl is the most electron negative .

Therefore , deshielding will be more in CH_3Cl .

Hence , this is the required solution .

Please help me and explanation would be really awesome thank you!
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

So the answer would be 10 moles

Explanation:

1) Start with the molecular formula for water: H_{2} O!

2) If there are 10 moles of water use a mole ratio to calculate the moles of oxygen it would produce.

(This question is... interesting... since they chose an element that is diatomic in free state so It could TECHNICALLY be two answers, moles of O or moles of O_{2})

The mole ratio is 1 moles of H_{2}O to 1 moles of O. This is because the coefficient for oxygen in water is simple 1, so the ratio is 1:1.

3) that means if 10 moles of water decompose, they decompose into 10 moles of H_{2} and 10 moles of O.

Extra:

About what I was saying before about the question being slightly interesting:

10 moles of pure oxygen is produced but free state oxygen exists as O_{2} so it could possibly be 10 OR 5! However, notice it says elements. This leads me to believe the answer is 10 (monatomic oxygen) instead of 5 (free state/diatomic oxygen).

I hope this helps!
