Answer: 5.47x10^24 molecules

Explanation:

6.02214076x10^23 molecules CO2 = 44g

400g = (400/44)*6.02214076*10^23 = 5.47x10^24

According to the concept of Avogadro's number, there are 54.75 ×10²³ molecules of carbon dioxide are 400 grams of the substance.

What is Avogadro's number?

Avogadro's number is defined as a proportionality factor which relates number of constituent particles with the amount of substance which is present in the sample.

It has a SI unit of reciprocal mole whose numeric value is expressed in reciprocal mole which is a dimensionless number and is called as Avogadro's constant.It relates the volume of a substance with it's average volume occupied by one of it's particles .

According to the definitions, Avogadro's number depend on determined value of mass of one atom of those elements.It bridges the gap between macroscopic and microscopic world by relating amount of substance with number of particles.

Number of atoms can be calculated using Avogadro's number as follows: mass/molar mass×Avogadro's number .Number of moles= 400/44=9.09 moles which is number of molecules =9.09×6.023×10²³= 54.75 ×10²³ .

An aqueous solution of ethanol, CH3CH2OH, has a concentration of 5.82 mol/L and has a density of 0.957 g/mL. What are the mass percent and mole fraction of CH3CH2OH in this solution

Answers

Answer:

1. Mass percent of ethanol = 28.02 %.

2. Mole fraction of ethanol = 0.13.

   

Explanation:

1. To find the mass percent we need to use the following equation:

[tex]\%_{m/m} = \frac{m_{e}}{m_{s}} \times 100[/tex]

Where:

[tex]m_{e}[/tex] is the mass of ethanol

[tex]m_{s}[/tex] is the mass of the solution

We need to calculate the mass of ethanol and the mass of the solution:

[tex] d = \frac{m_{s}}{V} [/tex]

Where:

d: is the density of the solution = 0.957 g/mL

V: is the volume = 1 L

[tex] m_{s} = d*V = 0.957 \frac{g}{mL}*\frac{1000 mL}{1 L}*1 L = 957 g [/tex]

Now, from the concentration we can find the mass of ethanol:

[tex] C = \frac{n_{e}}{V} = \frac{m_{e}}{M_{e}*V} [/tex]                      

Where:

[tex]M_{e}[/tex]: is the molar mass of ethanol = 46.07 g/mol

[tex]n_{e}[/tex]: is the number of moles of ethanol = m/M

[tex] m_{e} = C*M*V = 5.82 \frac{mol}{L}*46.07 \frac{g}{mol}*1 L = 268.13 g [/tex]

Finally, the mass percent of ethanol is:

[tex]\%_{m/m} = \frac{268.13 g}{957 g} \times 100 = 28.02 \%[/tex]

2. The mole fraction of ethanol is given by:

[tex] \chi_{e} = \frac{n_{e}}{n_{s}} [/tex]

The number of moles of ethanol is:

[tex]n_{e} = \frac{m_{e}}{M_{e}} = \frac{268.13 g}{46.07 g/mol} = 5.82 moles[/tex]

And the moles of the solution is:    

[tex] n_{s} = n_{e} + n_{w} [/tex]

Where w is for water

[tex] n_{s} = n_{e} + \frac{m_{w}}{M_{w}} [/tex]

[tex] n_{s} = n_{e} + \frac{m_{s} - m_{e}}{M_{w}} [/tex]

[tex]n_{s} = 5.82 moles + \frac{957 g - 268.13 g}{18 g/mol} = 44.09 moles[/tex]

Hence, the mole fraction of ethanol is:

[tex]\chi_{e} =\frac{5.82 moles}{44.09 moles}=0.13[/tex]

Gaseous methane CH4 reacts with gaseous oxygen gas O2 to produce gaseous carbon dioxide CO2 and gaseous water H2O. What is the theoretical yield of water formed from the reaction of 15.4g of methane and 90.3g of oxygen gas

Answers

Answer:

50.8 g

Explanation:

Equation of reaction.

[tex]CH_4 + 2O_2 \to CO_2 + 2H_2O[/tex]

From the given information, the number of moles of methane = mass/ molar mass

= 15.4 g /  16.04 g/mol

= 0.960 mol

number of moles of oxygen gas = 90.3 g / 32 g/ mol

= 2.82 mol

Since 1 mol of methane requires 2 moles of oxygen

Then 0.960 mol of methane will require = 0.960 mol × 2 = 1.92 mol of oxygen gas

Thus, methane serves as a limiting reagent.

2.82 mol oxygen gas will result in 2.82 moles of water

So, the theoretical yield of water = moles × molar mass

= 2.82 mol × 18.01528 g/mol

= 50.8 g

Which of the following Group 17 elements is the least reactive?

Answers

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Which of the following Group 17 elements is the least reactive

a) Flourine

b) Chlorine

c) Astatine

d) Iodine

Answer: c) Astatine

Explanation:

Halogen is the name given to Group 17 family with general electronic configuration of [tex]ns^2np^5[/tex] which have 7 valence electrons and thus easily gain one electron to attain stable configuration.

As we move down the group from flourine to chlorine to bromine to iodine to astatine , the valence shell moves farther from nucleus and thus tendency to accept the electron decreases and thus reactivity also decreases.

Thus Astatine is the least reactive of all.

You have a solid 7.00 gram mixture of sodium nitrate and silver nitrate. You add distilled water to dissolve the solids. Now you have aqueous solutions of sodium nitrate and silver nitrate. Next you add excess sodium chloride which results in a precipitate forming. You collect and dry the precipitate that forms and it has a mass of 2.54 grams. Write a balanced net ionic equation for the reaction that occurred. Determine the percent silver nitrate in the original mixture by mass assuming 95.9% actual yield.

Answers

Answer:

Net ionic equation: Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) → AgCl(s)

44.9% as AgNO₃

Explanation:

When sodium nitrate, NaNO₃ and silver nitrate, AgNO₃ are dissolved in water, the Na⁺, NO₃⁻ and Ag⁺ ions are formed.

Then, the addition of NaCl (Na⁺ and Cl⁻) produce AgCl⁻ as precipitate. The net ionic equation is:

Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) → AgCl(s)

If 2.54g of AgCl are formed and represents the 95.9% of yield. The real amount of AgCl is:

2.54g AgCl * (100% / 95.9%) = 2.65g AgCl.

In moles (Molar mass AgCl = 143.32g/mol):

2.65g AgCl * (1mol / 143.32g) = 0.0185 moles of AgCl = Moles of AgNO₃

Because all Ag comes from AgNO₃

Thus, the original mass of silver nitrate and its precentage is (Molar mass AgNO₃ = 169.87g/mol):

0.0185 moles AgNO₃ * (169.87g / mol) = 3.14g of AgNO₃

Percentage:

3.14g AgNO₃ / 7.00g * 100 =  

44.9% as AgNO₃

How many particles of argon (Ar) are present in 18.4L of argon?​ please

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

C

[tex]4.9 \times 10^{23}[/tex]  are present in 18.4L of argon (Ar).

To calculate the amount of particles present in a given amount of volume, it is necessary to have knowledge of the molar volume:

                                          [tex]1 mol = 22.4L[/tex]

Thus, in 22.4L there is 1 mol of an element, remembering that:

                                   [tex]1 mol = 6\times10^{23}[/tex] particles

In this way, it is enough to relate the value of the molar volume given with the value requested by the question:

                                     [tex]\frac{6\times10^{23}particles}{xparticles} = \frac{22.4L}{18.4L}[/tex]

                                    [tex]x = 4.9 \times 10^{23}[/tex] particles

 So, [tex]4.9 \times 10^{23}[/tex] are present in 18.4L of argon (Ar).

17. Which of the following
hydrocarbon undergo addition
reaction:
С3Н6
С2Н6
ОООО
С3Н8
CH4​

Answers

Answer:

С3Н6.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since addition reactions imply that a radical or some radicals are added to the parent chain, we notice that only unsaturated hydrocarbons are able to undergo addition whereas saturated ones undergo substitution reactions as they already have all the carbon bonds bonded to leaving groups.

In such a way, we can rule out C2H6, C3H8 and CH4 as they are all alkanes; therefore, only С3Н6 is able to undergo an addition reaction due to the C=C which is able to lose one of those bonds and allow an incoming radical to get included into the parent chain.

At 400K both compounds are gases. At this temperature, which compound, CH4(g) or CCl4(g) , behaves more like an ideal gas

Answers

Answer:

CH4

Explanation:

The ideal gas behavior of individual gases often depend on the magnitude of intermolecular interaction between the molecules of the gas as well as the presence or absence of polar bonds.

In CCl4, there are polar bonds and the presence of the more electronegative chlorine atom in the molecule and consequently a greater degree of intermolecular interaction at 400K compared to CH4 which contains only non polar bonds.

Therefore, CH4 displays greater ideal gas behavior at 400K than CCl4.

3: Consider molecules of hydrogen (tiny ones) and oxygen (bigger ones) in a gas mixture. If they have the same average kinetic energy (they will at the same temperature), which molecules have the greatest average speed

Answers

Answer: Hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed.

Explanation:

The formula for average speed is  :

[tex]\mu_{av}={\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi\times M}}}[/tex]

R = gas constant  

T = temperature  

M = Molecular Mass

Now putting all the values:

[tex]\frac{\nu_{H_2}}{\nu_{O_2}}=\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi\times M_{H_2}}}/{\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi\times M_{O_2}}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\nu_{H_2}}{\nu_{O_2}}=\sqrt{\frac{16}{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{\nu_{av}_{H_2}}{\nu_{av}_{O_2}}=8[/tex]

Thus average speed of hydrogen is 8 times the average speed of oxygen. Thus hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed

In such a way, solving for the concentration of the acid, HNO3, we obtain:

[tex]M_{acid}=\frac{M_{base}V_{base}}{V_{acid}}[/tex]

Therefore, by plugging in we obtain:

[tex]M_{acid}=\frac{0.12L*0.2M}{0.32L}\\\\ M_{acid}=0.075M[/tex]

according to the kinetic molecular theory the pressure exerted by a sample of gas at constats volume doubles when the absolute temperature is doubled because

Answers

Answer: gas molecules will hit the container walls more frequently and with greater force

Explanation:

According to the postulates of  kinetic molecular theory:

1. The pressure exerted by a gas in a container results from collisions between the gas molecules and the container walls.

2. The average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is proportional to the kelvin temperature of the gas.

When the temperature is increased, so the average kinetic energy and the rms speed also increase. This means that the gas molecules will hit the container walls more frequently and with greater force because they are all moving faster. This increase the pressure.
