Determine the empirical and molecular formulas of the mandelic acid​

Answers

Answer:

Both empirical and molecular are C₈H₈O₃.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according the attached picture, it is possible to figure out the molecular formula of the mandelic acid by counting each carbon, hydrogen and oxygen in the molecule.

In such a way, we can see the presence of eight carbon atoms, eight hydrogen atoms and three carbon atoms; thus, the molecular formula is:

C₈H₈O₃

Furthermore, since the empirical formula is the smallest representation of the molecular formula when we are able to simplify it, we evidence no simplification is possible, consequently, the empirical formula equals the molecular one.

If 0.64 mol PCl5 is placed in a 1.0 L flask and allowed to reach equilibrium at a given temperature, what is the final concentration of Cl2 in the flask?

PCl5 (g)→ PCl3 (aq) + Cl2 (g) Kc= 0.47

Answers

Answer: The final concentration of [tex]Cl_2[/tex] at equilibrium is 0.36 M

Explanation:

Moles of  [tex]PCl_5[/tex] = 0.64 mole  

Volume of solution = 1.0 L

Initial concentration of [tex]PCl_5[/tex] = [tex]\frac{moles}{Volume}=\frac{0.64mol}{1.0L}=0.64 M[/tex]

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

                     [tex]PCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)[/tex]

Initial conc.       0.64 M         0M        0M  

At eqm. conc.     (0.64-x) M   (x) M      (x) M

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

[tex]K_c=\frac{[Cl_2]\times [PCl_3]}{[PCl_5]}[/tex]  

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

[tex]0.47=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.64-x)}[/tex]

By solving the term 'x', we get :

x = 0.36

Thus, the final concentration of [tex]Cl_2[/tex] at equilibrium is x = 0.36 M

The concentration of Cl2 is 0.36M.

Number of moles of PCl5 = 0.64 mol

Volume =  1.0 L

Concentration of PCl5 = 0.64 mol/1.0 L  = 0.64  M

The equation of the reaction is;

          PCl5 (g)→ PCl3 (aq) + Cl2 (g)

I         0.64            0                0

C       -x                 +x               +x

E     0.64 - x           x                  x

Kc = [PCl3] [Cl2]/[PCl5]

0.47 = x^2/0.64 - x

0.47(0.64 - x) =  x^2

0.3 - 0.47x =x^2

x^2 +  0.47x - 0.3 = 0

x = 0.36 M

The concentration of Cl2 is 0.36M.

b) the weight-average molecular weight is 36,320 g/mol

c) the degree of polymerization is 770

48,000-56,000         52,000       0.07           0.12          3640              6240

∑                                                                                Mn=32,400     Mw=36,320

so;

a)  the number-average molecular weight

Mn = ∑Mixi

so from the table above; summation of Row Mixi

Mn = ∑Mixi = 32,400

Therefore, the number-average molecular weight is 32,400 g/mol

b) the weight-average molecular weight

Mw = ∑Miwi

so from the table above; summation of Row Miwi

Mw = ∑Miwi = 36,320

Therefore, the weight-average molecular weight is 36,320 g/mol

c) the degree of polymerization

the degree of polymerization of polypropylene can be determined using number-average molecular and repeat unit molecular weight.

now, for polypropylene { CH₂ = CH - CH₃ }

the repeat unit consist of 3 carbon atoms and 6 hydrogen atoms

given that;

Atomic weight of Carbon mC = 12.01 g/mol and

Atomic weight of  Hydrogen mH = 1.008 g/mol

now we find the repeat unit molecular weight of polypropylene

m = nCmC + nHmH

where n is the number of repeat of atoms

so we substitute

m = ( 3 × 12.01) + ( 6 × 1.008)

m = 36.03 + 6.048

m = 42.078 g/mol

now we calculate the degree of polymerization;

DP = Mn / m

so we substitute

DP = 32,400 / 42.078

DP = 769.9985 ≈ 770

Therefore,  the degree of polymerization is 770

An aqueous solution of nitric acid is standardized by titration with a 0.174 M solution of barium hydroxide. If 13.9 mL of base are required to neutralize 28.7 mL of the acid, what is the molarity of the nitric acid solution?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

2HNO₃ + Ba( OH)₂ = Ba( NO₃ )₂ + 2H₂O .

2 mole      1 mole

13.9 mL of .174M barium hydroxide contains .0139 x .174 moles

= 2.42 x 10⁻³ moles .

1 mole of barium hydroxide reacts with 2 moles of nitric acid

2.42 x 10⁻³ moles of barium hydroxide will react with 2 x 2.42 x 10⁻³ moles of nitric acid

= 4.84 x 10⁻³ moles

4.84 x 10⁻³ moles of nitric acid is contained in 28.7 mL

molarity of nitric acid = 4.84 x 10⁻³ / 28.7 x 10⁻³

= .169 M .

On the basis of the information above, a buffer with a pH = 9 can best be made by using

A pure NaH2PO4

B H3PO4 + H2PO4–

C H2PO4– + PO42–

D H2PO4– + HPO42–

E HPO42– + PO43

Answers

Answer:

D H2PO4– + HPO42–

Explanation:

The acid dissociation constant for [tex]\mathbf{H_3PO_4 , H_2PO^{-}_4 , HPO_4^{2-}}[/tex] are [tex]\mathbf{7\times 10^{-3}, \ \ 8\times 10^{-8} ,\ \ 5\times 10^{-13}}[/tex] respectively.

[tex]\mathbf{pka (H_3PO_4) = -log (7\times 10^{-3} )=2.2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{pka (H_2PO_4^-) = -log (8\times 10^{-8} )=7.1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{pka (HPO_4^{2-}) = -log (5\times 10^{-13} )=12.3}[/tex]

The reason while option D is the best answer is that, the value of pKa for both

[tex]\mathbf{H_2PO^{-}_4 ,\ \& \ HPO_4^{2-}}[/tex] lies on either side of the desired pH of the buffer. This implies that one is slightly over and the other is slightly under.

Using Henderson-Hasselbach equation:

[tex]\mathbf{pH = pKa + log \Big( \dfrac{HPO_4^{2-}}{H_2PO_4^-} \Big)}[/tex]

The compounds that are used for the formulation of the pH 9 buffer are [tex]\rm H_2PO_4^-\;and\;HPO_4^+[/tex]. Thus, option D is correct.

The buffers are the solutions of acids and base of appropriate pH, that are able to limit the change in pH in the reaction mixture.

Which compound is used for pH 9 buffer?

The buffer pH is adjusted with the compounds that has been able to add base or acid to the solution.

For the formulation of buffer of specific pH, the acid and base solutions are required.

The compounds that are used for the formulation of the pH 9 buffer are [tex]\rm H_2PO_4^-\;and\;HPO_4^+[/tex], as they are able to provide acid and base to the solution.

Thus, option D is correct.

[tex]Ksp = 3.2 \times 10^{-11}[/tex]

no of moles of [tex]Ca^{2+}[/tex] = 0.01 L × 0.0010 mol/L

no of moles of [tex]Ca^{2+}[/tex] = [tex]1 \times 10^{-5} \ mol[/tex]

no of moles of [tex]F^-[/tex] = 0.01 L × 0.00010 mol/L

no of moles of [tex]F^-[/tex] = [tex]1 \times 10^{-6}\ mol[/tex]

Calculate the volume in mL of 0.100 of CaCl2 needed to produce 1.00 g of CaCO3. there is an excess of Na2CO3

Answers

Answer:

100. mL

Explanation:

The computation of the volume in mL is shown below:

The balance equation of the double displacement reaction is

[tex]CaCl_{2} + Na_{2}CO_{3} \rightarrow 2 NaCl + CaCO_{3}[/tex]

Now determine the moles that corresponding to 1.00 g of CaCO₃

As,

The molar mass of CaCO₃ is 100.09 g/mol.

So,

= 1.00 g × 1 mol/100.09 g

= 0.0100 mol

Now

the moles of CaCl₂ needed to generate 0.0100 moles of CaCO₃

As we know that

The molar ratio of CaCl₂ to CaCO₃ is 1:1.

So, The moles of CaCl₂ needed is

=  1 ÷ 1 × 0.0100 mol

= 0.0100 mol.

Now volume of 0.100 M CaCl₂ that contains 0.0100 mol is  

= 0.0100 mol × 1 L/0.100 mol × 1000 mL/1 L

= 100. mL

molar mass of nine oxygen = 9 × 16 g = 144 g

molar mass of one nitrogen atom = 14 g

molar mass of three nitrogen atom = 3 × 14 g = 42 g

molar mass of one chromium atom = 51.99 g

molar mass of chromium (III) nitrate molecule = 144 g + 42 g + 51.99 g = 237.99 g

Step 1: Given data

Number of atoms of Fe (N): 912 atomsMolar mass of Fe (M): 55.85 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate the mass, in grams, of 1 atom of Fe

We will use Avogadro's number: there are 6.02 × 10²³ atoms of Fe in 1 mole of Fe.

55.85 g/mol × 1 mol/6.02 × 10²³ atom = 9.27 × 10⁻²³ g/atom
