A compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of a 2.18 g sample burns in excess oxygen yields 3.9

4 g of CO2 and 1.89 g of H2O. A separate experiment shows that a 1.23 g sample contains 0.235 g of N. Calculate the moles of C in the sample.

Answer:

1.074 g

Explanation:

The compound contains Carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen.

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44.009 g/mol

mole of carbon dioxide = mass of carbon dioxide / molar mass = 3.94 g / 44.009 g/mol = 0.0895 mol

mass of carbon = 0.0895 mol  × 12.011 g/mol = 1.074 g

mole of H₂O = 1.89g × 2 / 18.02 g/mol = 0.210

mass  of Hydrogen = 0.210 × 1.008 mole = 0.211 g

since the mass of 1.23g yield 0.235 g

2.18 g will yield 2.18 g ×0.235 g / 1.23 = 0.417 g

mole of nitrogen = 0.417 g / 14.0067 g/mol = 0.0298

Mass of oxygen in the sample = 2.18 - ( 0.417 g + 0.211 g + 1.074 g) = 0.478 g

mole of oxygen present = 0.478 g / 15.999 g/mol = 0.0299 mol

the ratio of C : H : N : O

0.0895 mol  : 0.210 : 0.0298 : 0.0299 mol

Answer:

1.074 g

Explanation:

Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + (16×2)

= 44 g/mol

Number of moles of CO2 = mass/molar mass = 3.94/44

= 0.0895 mol

mass of carbon = 0.0895 × 12.011

= 1.074 g

Number of mole of H₂O = 1.89 × 2 / 18

= 0.210 mol

mass  of Hydrogen = 0.210 × 1

= 0.210 g

since the mass of 1.23g yield 0.235 g

2.18 g will yield 2.18 g ×0.235 g / 1.23 = 0.417 g

mole of nitrogen = 0.417 g / 14

= 0.0298 mol

Mass of oxygen in the sample = 2.18 - ( 0.417 g + 0.211 g + 1.074 g)

= 0.478 g

mole of oxygen present = 0.478/16 = 0.03 mol.

0.0895  : 0.210 : 0.0298 : 0.0299

When the reaction CO2(g) + H2(g) ⇄ H2O(g) + CO(g) is at equilibrium at 1800◦C, the equilibrium concentrations are found to be [C
UNO [17]

Answer:

The new molar concentration of CO at equilibrium will be  :[CO]=1.16 M.

Explanation:

Equilibrium concentration of all reactant and product:

[CO_2] = 0.24 M, [H_2] = 0.24 M, [H_2O] = 0.48 M, [CO] = 0.48 M

Equilibrium constant of the reaction :

K=\frac{[H_2O][CO]}{[CO_2][H_2]}=\frac{0.48 M\times 0.48 M}{0.24 M\times 0.24 M}

K = 4

CO_2(g) + H_2(g) \rightleftharpoons H_2O(g) + CO(g)

Concentration at eq'm:

0.24 M          0.24 M                 0.48 M            0.48 M

After addition of 0.34 moles per liter of CO_2 and H_2 are added.

(0.24+0.34) M    (0.24+0.34) M  (0.48+x)M         (0.48+x)M

Equilibrium constant of the reaction after addition of more carbon dioxide and water:

K=4=\frac{(0.48+x)M\times (0.48+x)M}{(0.24+0.34)\times (0.24+0.34) M}

4=\frac{(0.48+x)^2}{(0.24+0.34)^2}

Solving for x: x = 0.68

The new molar concentration of CO at equilibrium will be:

[CO]= (0.48+x)M = (0.48+0.68 )M = 1.16 M

How many electrons are transferred in the given redox reaction?<br><br> Zn+2AgNO3⟶2Ag+Zn(NO3)2
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

2 electrons are transfered in this reaction.

Explanation:

Oxidation is a reaction where an atom, ion, or molecule loses electrons, while reduction corresponds to the electron gain of an atom, ion, or molecule.

In an oxidation-reduction reaction two simultaneous processes take place, oxidation and reduction.

So, oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions involve the transfer of electrons between chemical species. They are also called electron transfer reactions since the particle that is exchanged is the electron.

In this case:

Zn(s) ⇒ Zn²⁺(aq) + 2 e⁻

2 Ag⁺  (aq) + 2 e⁻ ⇒ 2 Ag(s)

So, zinc metal loses two electrons to form the zinc(II) ions, while the two silver ions each gain one  electron to form two silver metal atoms.

Then, Zn is a reducing agent (The reducing agent is the one that provides the electrons, oxidizing itself), AgNO3 is an oxidizing agent (The oxidizing agent is the one that traps the electrons, reducing itself).

Finally, you can see that <u><em>2 electrons are transfered in this reaction.</em></u>

An unknown metal is dropped into 127 grams of water. The temperature of the water has been raised from 25OC to 28OC. Using the s
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

he amount of heat gained by the water is 1.59 kJ    

Explanation:

Relation between heat energy, specific heat and temperature change is as follows

Q = mCΔT

where,    Q or q = heat energy

             m = mass

             C = specific heat  =4.186J/g°C

ΔT = (28°C - 25°C) = 3°C

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Q = mCΔT

= 127 × 4.186 × 3

= 1594.86 J or 1.59 kJ    

Therefore, we can conclude that the amount of heat gained by the water is 1.59 kJ
