%Mass

Ar C = 12 g/mol, Mr C₄H₁₀ = 58 g/mol, Ar H = 1 g/mol

$\tt C=\dfrac{4.12}{58}\times 100\%=82.8\%\\\\H=100\%-82.8\%=17.2\%$

$\tt H=\dfrac{10.1}{58}\times 100\%= 17.2\%$

<span>An acid-base indicator (e.g., phenolphthalein) changes color depending on the pH. Redox indicators are also frequently used. A drop of indicator solution is added to the titration at the start; when the color changes the endpoint has been reached, this is an approximation of the equivalence point.</span>

Answer:

28%

Explanation:

Basically, all o did was write the equations, balance it and solve for them. Also, at the place I stared, I used simultaneous equation to solve it. Multiplying by 8 and also 3.

It's a pretty straightforward question.

At the final step that's missing, I Did

Draw the lewis structure of ch3nc; fill in any nonbonding electrons. Calculate the formal charge on each atom other than hydroge

jenyasd209 [6]

A visual representation of covalent bonding which represents the valence shell electrons in the molecule is said to be a Lewis structure. The lines represents the shared electron pairs and dots represents the electrons that are not involved in the bonding i.e lone pairs.

Number of valence electrons in each atom:

For Carbon, $C$ = 4

For Hydrogen, $H$ = 1

For Nitrogen, $N$ = 5

The Lewis structure of $CH_3NC$ is shown in the attached image.

The formula of calculating formula charge = $FC = VE - NE- \frac{BE}{2}$ -(1)

where, F.C is formal charge, V.E is number of valence electrons, N.E is number of non-bonding electrons and B.E is number of bonding electrons.

Now, calculating the formal charge:

For $C$ on left side:

$FC = 4 - 0- \frac{8}{2} = 0$

For $N$ :

$FC = 5 - 0- \frac{8}{2} = +1$

For $C$ on right side:

$FC = 4 - 2- \frac{6}{2} = -1$

The formula charge of each atom other than hydrogen is shown in the attached image.

According to the below equation, how many moles of SO2 are required to generate 1.43×1024 water molecules?

podryga [215]

Make sure the equation is always balanced first. (It is balanced for this question already) 6.022 x 10^23 is Avogadro’s number. In one mole of anything there is always 6.022 x 10^23 molecules, formula units, atoms. For one mol of an element/ compound use molar mass (grams).

Multiply everything on the top = 8.61x10^47
Multiple everything on bottom= 1.20x10^24
Divide top and bottom = 7.15x10^23

Answer: 7.15x10^23 mol SO2
