Answer:

The answer is B. It contains more non-penetrating solute particles than the interior of the cell.

Explanation:

This means that it has a greater concentration or number of solute particles outside a membrane than there are inside it.

A typical example is Saline solution.

The decomposition of copper(II) nitrate on heating is endothermic reaction. 2Cu(NO3)2(s) → 2C10(s) + 4NO2(g) + O2(g) Calculate t

Basile [38]

Answer:

The enthalpy change for the given reaction is 424 kJ.

Explanation:

$2Cu(NO_3)_2(s)\rightarrow 2CuO(s) + 4NO_2(g) + O_2(g),\Delta H_{rxn}=?$

We have :

Enthalpy changes of formation of following s:

$\Delta H_{f,Cu(NO_3)_2}=-302.9 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H_{f,CuO}=-157.3 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H_{f,NO_2}= 33.2 kJ/mol$

$\Delta H_{f,O_2}= 0 kJ/mol$ (standard state)

$\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum [\Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [\Delta H_f(reactant)]$

The equation for the enthalpy change of the given reaction is:

$\Delta H_{rxn}$ =

$=(2 mol\times \Delta H_{f,CuO}+4\times \Delta H_{f,NO_2}+1 mol\times \Delta H_{f,O_2})-(2mol\times \Delta H_{f,Cu(NO_3)_2})$

$\Delta H_{rxn}$ =

$(2mol\times (-157.3 kJ/mol)+4\times 33.2 kJ/mol=1 mol\times 0 kJ/mol)-(2 mol\times (-302.9 kJ/mol)$

$\Delta H_{rxn}=424 kJ$

The enthalpy change for the given reaction is 424 kJ.

Luden [163]

<u>Answer:</u> The empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is $CH_3O$ and $C_4H_{12}O_4$

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=9.06g$

Mass of $H_2O=5.58g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

<u>For calculating the mass of carbon:</u>

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 9.06 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 9.06=2.47g$ of carbon will be contained.

<u>For calculating the mass of hydrogen:</u>

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 5.58 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 5.58=0.62g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (6.38) - (2.47 + 0.62) = 3.29 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

<u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{2.47g}{12g/mole}=0.206moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.62g}{1g/mole}=0.62moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{3.29g}{16g/mole}=0.206moles$

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.206 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.206}{0.206}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.62}{0.206}=3$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.206}{0.206}=1$

<u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 1 : 3 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_1H_{3}O_1=CH_3O$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is:

$n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 124 amu = 124 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 31 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{124g/mol}{31g/mol}=4$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(1\times 4)}H_{(3\times 4)}O_{(1\times 4)}=C_4H_{12}O_4$

Thus, the empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is $CH_3O$ and $C_4H_{12}O_4$

To save time you can approximate the initial volume of water to ±1 mL and the initial mass of the solid to ±1 g. For example, if

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

20.2 g silver placed in 21.6 mL of water and 20.2 g copper placed in 21.6 mL of water

Explanation:

Since the density formula is mass divided volume, you can calculate the density of each of the components of the group and see which of all the groups are equal

In the group

density Ag=20.2 g silver/21.6ml H2O=0.9352g/ml

density Cu=20.2 g copper/21.6ml H2O=0.9352 g/ml
