Answer:
Chelate, any of a class of coordination or complex compounds consisting of a central metal atom attached to a large molecule, called a ligand, in a cyclic or ring structure. An example of a chelate ring occurs in the ethylenediamine-cadmium complex:
The ethylenediamine ligand has two points of attachment to the cadmium ion, thus forming a ring; it is known as a didentate ligand. (Three ethylenediamine ligands can attach to the Cd2+ ion, each one forming a ring as depicted above.) Ligands that can attach to the same metal ion at two or more points are known as polydentate ligands. All polydentate ligands are chelating agents.
Chelates are more stable than nonchelated compounds of comparable composition, and the more extensive the chelation—that is, the larger the number of ring closures to a metal atom—the more stable the compound. This phenomenon is called the chelate effect; it is generally attributed to an increase in the thermodynamic quantity called entropy that accompanies chelation. The stability of a chelate is also related to the number of atoms in the chelate ring. In general, chelates containing five- or six-membered rings are more stable than chelates with four-, seven-, or eight-membered rings.
Explanation:
<span>A compound is found to be 40.0% carbon, 6.7% hydrogen and 53.5% oxygen. Its molecular mass is 60. g/mol.
</span>Q1)
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components making up a compound.
the percentages have been given, therefore we can calculate for 100 g of the compound.
C H O
Mass in 100 g 40.0 g 6.7 g 53.5 g
Molar mass 12 g/mol 1 g/mol 16 g/mol
Number of moles 40.0/12= 3.33 6.7/1 = 6.7 53.5/16 = 3.34
Divide by the least number of moles
3.33/3.33 = 1 6.7/3.33 = 2.01 3.34/3.33 = 1.00
after rounding off
C - 1
H - 2
O - 1
Empirical formula - CH₂O
Q2)
Molecular formula is the actual number of components making up the compound.
To find the number of empirical units we have to find the mass of one empirical unit.
Mass of one empirical unit = CH₂O - 12 + (1x2) + 16 = 30 g
Mass of one mole of compound = 60 g
Number of empirical units = 60 g / 30 g = 2
Therefore molecular formula - 2(CH₂O)
Molecular formula - C₂H₄O₂
Answer:
-7.34 kilo Joules is the change in enthaply when 20.0 grams of nitrogen triiodide decomposes.
Explanation:
Mass of nitrogen triiodide = 20.0 g
Moles of nitrogen triiodide = 

According to reaction, 2 moles of nitrogen triiodide gives 290.0 kilo Joules of heat on decomposition ,then 0.05063 moles of nitrogen triiodide will give :

-7.34 kilo Joules is the change in enthaply when 20.0 grams of nitrogen triiodide decomposes.
First, consider the steps to heat the sample from 209 K to 367K.
1) Heating in liquid state from 209 K to 239.82 K
2) Vaporaizing at 239.82 K
3) Heating in gaseous state from 239.82 K to 367 K.
Second, calculate the amount of heat required for each step.
1) Liquid heating
Ammonia = NH3 => molar mass = 14.0 g/mol + 3*1g/mol = 17g/mol
=> number of moles = 12.62 g / 17 g/mol = 0.742 mol
Heat1 = #moles * heat capacity * ΔT
Heat1 = 0.742 mol * 80.8 J/mol*K * (239.82K - 209K) = 1,847.77 J
2) Vaporization
Heat2 = # moles * H vap
Heat2 = 0.742 mol * 23.33 kJ/mol = 17.31 kJ = 17310 J
3) Vapor heating
Heat3 = #moles * heat capacity * ΔT
Heat3 = 0.742 mol * 35.06 J / (mol*K) * (367K - 239.82K) = 3,308.53 J
Third, add up the heats for every steps:
Total heat = 1,847.77 J + 17,310 J + 3,308.53 J = 22,466.3 J
Fourth, divide the total heat by the heat rate:
Time = 22,466.3 J / (6000.0 J/min) = 3.7 min
Answer: 3.7 min
