Like many other organic solvents we will use this semester, ethanol is flammable and caution needs to be exercised when heating

ethanol on the hot plate. What precaution should always be taken when heating solvents on the hot plate?
Chemistry

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A flammable solvent refers to a solvent that catches fire easily. The precautions to be taken when working with flammable solvents are;

1) heat the solvent at a low to medium hot plate setting.

2) if you need to boil the solvent, use a condenser rather than a flask or beaker without a cover.

3) make sure that the hotplate is larger than the vessel containing the mixture that is being heated.

4) do not use strong oxidizing agents

Place the following in correct sequence from simplest to most complex: 1. molecules 2. atoms 3. tissues 4. cells 5. organs
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Simplest to complex

Atoms, molecules, cells, tissues, organs

Explanation:

An atom is the smallest or basic unit of any substance or thing. therefore, it is simplest among given.

Two or more atoms joined together to form molecules. Therefore, molecules are complex than atoms.

Cell is the basic unit of life and a cell is made of many molecules and compounds. So, cells are more complex than molecules.

Several cells organised in a definite way to form tissue, so tissues are group of cells and perform a definite function inside a living thing. So, tissues are more complex than cell.

Organs consist of several cells and tissues and perform a specific functions. Therefore, organs are the most complex structure among given.

Therefore order from simplest to complex is as follows:

Atoms, molecules, cells, tissues, organs

HELP! Ethanol has a density of 0.8 g/cm3. a. What is the mass of 225 cm3 of ethanol? b. What is the volume of 75.0 g of ethanol?
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

a) 180 g

b) 93.7 cm³

Explanation:

The density of a substance is the mass of the substance per unit of volume. So, it is calculated as follows:

density= mass/volume

From the data provided in the problem:

density = 0.8 g/cm³

a) Given: volume= 225 cm³

mass= density x volume = 0.8 g/cm³ x 225 cm³ = 180 g

b) Given: mass= 75.0 g

volume = mass/density = 75.0 g/(0.8 g/cm³)= 93.75 cm³≅ 93.7 cm³

Ethyl alcohol is produced by the fermentation of glucose, C6H12O6. C6H12O6 (s) → 2 C2H5OH (l) + 2 CO2 (g) ΔH° = – 69.1 kJ Given
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

-1273.3

Explanation:

Enthalpy of formation of a compound is the amount of heat absorbed or evolved when one mole of the compound is formed from other compounds.

enthalpy of formation Of CO2 = 2 X -393.5 = -787

enthalpy of formation Of C2H5OH = 2 X -277.7 = -555.4

enthalpy of formation Of C6H12O6 = 69.1 (reverse sign) + (-787 + -555.4) = - 1273.3 Joules

Now consider the reaction when 45.0 g NaOH have been added. What amount of NaOH is this, and what amount of FeCl3 can be consume
gayaneshka [121]

The correct answer is that 1.125 mol of NaOH is available, and 60.75 g of FeCl₃ can be consumed.

The mass of NaOH is 45 g

The molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

The moles of NaOH = mass / molar mass

= 45 / 40

= 1.125

Thus, 1.125 mol NaOH is available

3 NaOH + FeCl₃ ⇒ Fe (OH)₃ + 3NaCl

3 mol of NaOH react with 1 mol of FeCl₃

1.125 moles of NaOH will react with x moles of FeCl₃

x = 1.125 / 3

x = 0.375 mol

0.375 mol FeCl₃ can take part in reaction

The molar mass of FeCl₃ is 162 g/mol

The mass of FeCl₃ = moles × mass

= 0.375 × 162

= 60.75 g

Thus, the amount of FeCl₃, which can be consumed is 60.75 g
