Answer:

b

Explanation:

Provided the experiment is about the transfer of heat from one medium to another, any residual hot water on the metal would have added to the heat transferred from the metal to the cold water system.

The residual hot water on the metal posses its own heat and when such is transferred along with the metal into the cold water, the heat from the residual hot water will interfere with the measurement of the actual heat transferred to the cold water by the metal. Hence, the accuracy of the result would be impacted.

The correct option is b.

Answer:

Major product does not undergo oxidation since it is a tertiary alcohol whereas minor product undergoes oxidation to ketone as it is  secondary alcohol.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the attached picture, the hydration of the 1 methylcyclohexene yields to alcohols; 1-methylcyclohexan-1-ol and 1-methylcyclohexan-2-ol. Thus, since the OH in the 1-methylcyclohexan-1-ol (major product) is bonded to a tertiary carbon (bonded with other three carbon atoms) it is not able to increase the number of oxygen bonds (oxidation) as it already attained the octet whereas the 1-methylcyclohexan-2-ol (minor product) is able to undergo oxidation to ketone as the carbon bonded to it is secondary (bonded with other two carbon atoms), so one extra bond the oxygen is allowed to be formed to carbonyl.

[tex]V_{HCl}=0.208L=208mL[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the chemical reaction is:

[tex]2HCl+Mg(OH)_2\rightarrow MgCl_2+2H_2O[/tex]

We can see that hydrochloric acid and magnesium hydroxide are in a 2:1 mole ratio, which means that the neutralization point, we can write:

[tex]n_{HCl}=2*n_{Mg(OH)_2}[/tex]

In such a way, the moles of magnesium hydroxide (molar mass 58.3 g/mol) in 500 mg are:

[tex]n_{Mg(OH)_2}=500mg*\frac{1g}{1000mg}*\frac{1mol}{58.3g} =0.00858mol[/tex]

Next, since the pH of hydrochloric acid is 1.25, the concentration of H⁺ as well as the acid (strong acid) is:

[tex][H^+]=[HCl]=10^{-pH}=10^{-1.25}=0.0562M[/tex]

Then, since the concentration and the volume define the moles, we can write:

[tex][HCl]*V_{HCl}=2*n_{Mg(OH)_2}[/tex]

Therefore, the neutralized volume turns out:

[tex]V_{HCl}=\frac{2*0.00858mol}{0.0562\frac{mol}{L} }\\ \\V_{HCl}=0.208L=208mL[/tex]

Answer:

The correct answer is 1.68 × 10⁻⁵ Ci

Explanation:

The activity of the uranium is determined by using the formula,  

R = 0.693 N/t1/2 -------------- (i)

The number of atoms is, N = nNA

Here, NA is the Avogadro number and n is the number of moles. The value of n is m/M, that is, mass/molecular mass. Now the value of N becomes,  

N = (m/M) NA

The m or mass of uranium given is 50.1 grams, and the molecular mass is 238 g/mol, now putting the values we get,  

N = (50 g/238 g) (6.023 × 10²³) = 1.26 × 10²³

The half-life of 238U from year to second is,  

t1/2 = (4.468 × 10⁸ year) (3.16 × 10⁷ s/ 1 year) = 1.412 × 10¹⁶ s

Substituting the values of t1/2 as 1.412 × 10¹⁶, and 1.26 × 10²³ for N in equation (i) we get,  

R = 0.639 (1.26 × 10²³) / 1.412 × 10¹⁶ s  

= 6.18 × 10⁶ Bq (2.7027 × 10⁻¹¹ Ci/1 Bq)

= 1.68 × 10⁻⁵ Ci

Hence, the activity of the plate is 1.68 × 10⁻⁵ Ci

Answer:

74.3g of methanol were introduced into the vessel

Explanation:

In the equilibrium:

CH₃OH(g) ⇄ CO(g) + 2H₂(g)

Kc is defined as the ratio between concentrations in equilibrium of :

Kc = 6.90x10⁻² = [CO] [H₂]² / [CH₃OH]

Some methanol added to the vessel will react producing H₂ and CO. And equilibrium concentrations must be:

[CH₃OH] = ? - X

[CO] = X

[H₂] = 2X

Where ? is the initial concentration of methanol

As [H₂] = 2X = 0.426M; X = 0.213M

[CH₃OH] = ? - 0.213M

[CO] = 0.213M

[H₂] = 0.426M

Replacing in Kc to solve equilibrium concentration of methanol:

6.90x10⁻² = [0.213] [0.426]² / [CH₃OH]

[CH₃OH] = 0.560

As:

[CH₃OH] = ? - 0.213M = 0.560M

? = 0.773M

0.7733M was the initial concentration of methanol. As volume of vessel is 3.00L, moles of methanol are:

3.00L * (0.773 mol / L) = 2.319 moles methanol.

Using molar mass of methanol (32.04g/mol), initial mass of methanol added was:

2.319 moles * (32.04g / mol) =

Answer:

14, 508J/K

ΔHrxn =q/n

where q = heat absorbed and n = moles

Explanation:

m = mass of substance (g) = 0.1184g

1 mole of Mg - 24g

n moles - 0.1184g

n = 0.0049 moles.

Also, q = m × c × ΔT

Heat Capacity, C of MgCl2 = 71.09 J/(mol K)

∴ specific heat c of MgCL2 = 71.09/0.0049 (from the formula c = C/n)

= 14, 508 J/K/kg

ΔT=  (final - initial) temp = 38.3 - 27.2

= 11.1 °C.

mass of MgCl2 = 95.211 × 0.1184 = 11.27

⇒ q = 11.27g × 11.1 °C × 14, 508 j/K/kg

= 1,7117.7472 J °C-1 g-1

∴ ΔHrxn = q/n

=1,7117.7472  ÷ 0.1184

= 14, 508J/K

Answer:

4.84g of FeO is the theoretical yield

Explanation:

The Iron, Fe(s), reacts with oxygen, O₂(g), producing Iron (II) oxide, as follows:

2Fe(s) + O₂(g) → 2FeO

Theoretical yield is the yield of a reaction in which you assume the 100% of reactants is converted in products.

To find theoretical yield we need to find moles of Iron, and, knowing 2 moles of Fe produce 2 moles of FeO (Ratio 1:1), we can find theoretical yield of FeO as follows:

Moles Fe (Molar mass: 55.845g/mol)

Using the molar mass of the compound we can convert grams to moles, thus:

3.76g Fe × (1mol / 55.845g) = 0.0673 moles of Fe

Moles and mass of FeO

As there are in reaction 0.0673 moles Fe, assuming a theoretical yield (And as ratio of the reaction is 1:1), you will obtain 0.0673 moles of FeO.

Theoretical yield is given in grams, As molar mass of FeO is 71.844g/mol, theoretical yield of the reaction is:

0.0673 moles FeO × (71.844g / mol) =

Explanation:

Our goal for this question is to calculate the concentration of hydronium ions [tex]H^+[/tex] produced by water in a vessel with a concentration of hydroxide ions of [tex]2.21X10^-^6~M[/tex]. So, our first approach can be the ionization reaction of water:

[tex]H_2O_(_l_)~->~H^+~_(_a_q_)~+~OH^-~_(_a_q_)[/tex]

If we write the Keq expression for this reaction we will have:

[tex]Keq=[H^+][OH^-][/tex]

Now, water is the universal solvent, so, Keq has a special name. In the equilibrium problems for water we have to use "Kw" instead of "Keq":

[tex]Kw=[H^+][OH^-][/tex]

From this equation, we know the Kw value () and the concentration of the hydroxide ions ([2.21X10^-^6~M]). If we replace these values into the equation we can solve for [tex][H^+][/tex]:

[tex]1.0X10^-^1^4=[H^+][2.21X10^-^6~M][/tex]

[tex][H^+]=\frac{1.0X10^-^1^4}{2.21X10^-^6}=4.52X^-^9[/tex]

Answer:

The reaction given is:

In (g) + H₂ (g) ⇔ InH₂ (g), the Kp is 1.48 at 973 K.

The partial pressures measured in the reaction vessel is Partial pressure of In is 0.0540 atm, partial pressure of H₂ is 0.0250 atm, and the partial pressure of InH₂ is 0.0780 atm. By using the table given in the attachment below, the value of PInH₂ is (0.078-x), PIn is (0.054 + x), and the value of PH2 is (0.025 + x).

Kp = PInH₂/PIn × PH₂ = (0.078 - x) / (0.054 +x) (0.025 + x)

1.48 = (0.078 - x) / (0.054 +x) (0.025 + x)

x = 0.06689

Now the partial pressures of In, H₂ and InH₂ will be,

PH₂ = 0.025 + x = 0.025 + 0.0668 = 0.0918 atm

PIn = 0.054 + 0.0668 = 0.1208 atm

PInH₂ = 0.078 - 0.0668 = 0.0112 atm

Now the Qp or the reaction quotient will be,

Qp = (0.078) / (0.054) (0.025) = 57.78.

Explanation:

Addition of 0.05 M HCl, will react with all of the C2H3O2- from LiAc which will give 0.05 M more HAc. So there will be no Acetate ion left to make the solution buffer. Hence, the correct option for the this question is d, which is adding 0.050 moles of HCl.

The action that destroys the buffer is option c. adding 0.050 moles of HCl.

It is a solution of a weak acid and salt.

Here, The buffer will destroy at the time when either HC2H3O2 or NaC2H3O2 should not be present in the solution.

The addition of equal moles of HCl finishly reacts with equal moles of NaC2H3O2. Due to this,  there will be only acid in the solution.

Since

moles of HC2H3O2 = 1*0.250 = 0.250

moles of NaC2H3O2 = 1*0.050 = 0.050.

moles of HCl is added = 0.050

Now

The reaction between HCl and NaC2H3O2

[tex]HCl + NaC_2H_3O_2 \rightarrow HC_2H_3O_2 + NaCl[/tex]

Now

BCA table is

            NaC2H3O2  HCl       HC2H3O2

Before 0.050 0.050 0.250

Change -0.050 -0.050 +0.050

After 0 0 0.300

Now, the solution contains the acid (HC2H3O2 ) only.

Therefore addition of 0.050 moles of HCl will destroy the buffer.

Answer:

THE MOLAR HEAT CAPACITY OF HEXANE IS 290.027 J/ C

Explanation:

1604 J of heat is added to 48.9 g of hexane

To calculate the molar heat capacity of hexane, it is important to note that the molar heat capacity of a substance is the measure of the amount of heat needed to raise 1 mole of a substance by 1 K.

Since 1604 J of heat = 48.9 g of hexane

Molar mass of hexane = 86 g/mol = 1 mole

then;

1604 J = 48.9 g

x = 86 g

x = 1604 * 86 / 48.9

x = 4205.4 J

Hence, 4205.4 J of heat will be added to 1 mole or 86 g of hexane to raise the temperature by 14.5 C.

In other words,

heat = molar heat capacity * temperature change

molar heat capacity = heat/ temperature change

Molar heat capacity = 4205.4 J / 14.5 C

Molar heat capacity = 290.027 J/C

The molar heat capacity of hexane is 290.027 J/ C

Explanation:

As mentioned in the given question that the chamber comprises equal molar concentrations of He, Ne, Ar and Kr gas. So, let us assume that the moles of all the gases will be x then the total number of moles will be 4x.  

The formula for calculating mole fraction is,  

Mole fraction = mole of the substance/total moles  

The mole fraction of Kr = x/4x = 0.25

The total pressure given in the chamber is 1 atm. Therefore, the partial pressure will be,  

Partial pressure = mole fraction * Total pressure

Partial pressure = 0.25 * 1 = 0.25 atm.  

The partial pressure of Kr is 0.25 atm.

We are told that there is an equal molar amounts of He, Ne, Ar, and Kr. If we decide to say, let the molar amount of each gas be x, the total number of moles  of all the gases will now be; x + x+ x + x = 4x

Let us recall that partial pressure of a gas can be obtained form the formula;

Partial pressure = mole fraction × total pressure

Mole fraction of Kr = x/4x = 1/4

Total pressure = 1 atm

Partial pressure of Kr = 1/4 × 1 = 0.25 atm

3-pentanol

Explanation:

In this case, we have alcohol as the main functional group (OH) with a molecular ion at 88. If the molecular ion is 88 the molar mass is also 88 g/mol therefore the formula for the unknown molecule is [tex]C_5H_1_2O[/tex].

Additionally, if the mass spectrum shows the molecular ion peak we can not have tertiary alcohols (tertiary alcohols often do not show M+ at  all). So, the structures only can be primary and secondary structures.

With this in mind, our options are:

-) 1-pentanol

-) 2-pentanol

-) 3-pentanol

Now we can analyze each structure:

-) 1-pentanol

The structure must explain all the fragments produced (73, 70, and 59). In this primary alcohol, we will have an alpha cleavage (the red bond would be broken). If this has to happen, we will have fragments at 31 and 57. These fragments dont fit with the reported ones, therefore this is not a possible structure (See figure 1).

-) 2-pentanol

On this structure, we will have also an alpha cleavage (red bond). In this rupture we will have fragments at 45 and 43, these m/z values dont fit with the reported ones, therefore this is not a possible structure (See figure 1).

-) 3-pentanol

In this structure, we have the "OH"  bonded to carbon three. So, we can analyze each fragment:

   -) m/z 59

This fragment, can be explained as an alpha cleavage. But, in this case we have two ruptures that can produce the same ion. The carbons on both sides of the C-OH bond.

   -) m/z 71

This fragment, can be explained as a loss of water (M-18) in which we have the production of a carbocation in the carbon where we previously have the C-OH bond.

   -) m/z 73

This fragment, can be explained as a beta cleavage. But, in this case, also we have two ruptures that can produce the same ion. The methyl groups on each end molecule.

Whose equilibrium expression is:

[tex]Ka=\frac{[H^+][HCOO^-]}{[HCOOH]}[/tex]

That in terms of the reaction extent is:

[tex]1.8x10^{-4}=\frac{x*x}{0.16-x}[/tex]

Thus, solving for [tex]x[/tex] which is also equal to the concentration of hydrogen ions we obtain:

[tex]x=0.00528M[/tex]

[tex][H^+]=0.00528M[/tex]

Then, as the pH is computed as:

[tex]pH=-log([H^+])[/tex]

The pH turns out:

[tex]pH=-log(0.00528M)\\\\pH=2.28[/tex]
