<u>Answer:</u> The metal having molar mass equal to 26.95 g/mol is Aluminium

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$ .....(1)

Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.5000 M

Volume of solution = 0.03340 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.5000M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}}{0.03340L}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=(0.5000mol/L\times 0.03340L)=0.01670mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and sulfuric acid follows:

$2NaOH+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of sulfuric acid

So, 0.01670 moles of NaOH will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.01670=0.00835mol$ of sulfuric acid

Excess moles of sulfuric acid = 0.00835 moles

Calculating the moles of sulfuric acid by using equation 1, we get:

Molarity of sulfuric acid solution = 0.5000 M

Volume of solution = 127.9 mL = 0.1279 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.5000M=\frac{\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4}{0.1279L}\\\\\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=(0.5000mol/L\times 0.1279L)=0.06395mol$

Number of moles of sulfuric acid reacted = 0.06395 - 0.00835 = 0.0556 moles

The chemical equation for the reaction of metal (forming $M^{3+}$ ion) and sulfuric acid follows:

$2X+3H_2SO_4\rightarrow X_2(SO_4)_3+3H_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of sulfuric acid reacts with 2 moles of metal

So, 0.0556 moles of sulfuric acid will react with = $\frac{2}{3}\times 0.0556=0.0371mol$ of metal

To calculate the molar mass of metal for given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Mass of metal = 1.00 g

Moles of metal = 0.0371 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0371mol=\frac{1.00g}{\text{Molar mass of metal}}\\\\\text{Molar mass of metal}=\frac{1.00g}{0.0371mol}=26.95g/mol$

Hence, the metal having molar mass equal to 26.95 g/mol is Aluminium

what is the molecular formula of a compound that contains 38% c, 45% n and 16% h if 0.157 g of the compound occupies 125 ml with

EastWind [94]

The molecular formula of the given compound is CH₅N.

<h3>What is the ideal gas equation?</h3>

The ideal gas law has defined the product of the volume and pressure as equal to the product of the gas constant (R) and absolute temperature of the gas.

The mathematical equation of the ideal gas law is as follows:

PV = nRT

The temperature of the compound, T = 22° C = 295 K

The pressure of the compound, P = 99.5 KPa = 0.982 atm

The volume of the compound, V = 125 ml = 0.125 L

0.125 × 0.982 = (0.157 g/M) × 0.082 ×295

M = 31 g/mol

A number of moles of C = 0.157 ×0.37/12 = 0.00484

A number of moles of N = 0.157 ×0.45/14 = 0.00504

A number of moles of H = 0.157 ×0.16/1 = 0.0251

The simplest ratio of C: N: H is 1 : 1 : 5

The empirical formula of the given compound is CH₅N.

The molecular formula of the compound is CH₅N as the molecular mass is equal to 31 g/mol.

Give the n and l values and the number of orbitals for sublevel 5g.

Pepsi [2]

The n and l values and the number of orbitals for sublevel 5g is :

5g shell , n= 5 subshell g , l = 4, Number of orbitals for sublevel = 9.

There are total four quantum numbers:

1) Principal quantum number , n

2) Angular quantum number , l

3) Magnetic quantum number , ml

4) spin quantum number , ms

For 5g shell, n = 5

subshell g , l = 4 ....0 - s , 1 - p , 2 - d, 3 - f, 4 -g

number of orbitals in subshell = (2l + 1) ( 2×4 + 1) = 9

Thus, The n and l values and the number of orbitals for sublevel 5g is :

5g shell , n= 5 subshell g , l = 4, Number of orbitals for sublevel = 9.
