There are several ways to visually represent compounds. For this particular organic compound, we can use the skeletal formula and the expanded formula. The skeletal makes use of lines to show which atoms are bonded to each other. The expanded formula shows the species of the atoms and their bonding with other atoms. I have attached the two representations.

How many moles of KCl will be produced from 15.0 g of KClO3?

slega [8]

Answer:

0.12 mol KCl

Explanation:

2 KClO3 (s) 2 KCl (s) + 3 O2 (g)

15 g x mol

x g KCl = 15 g KClO3 x[ (1 mol KClO3)/ (122.5 g KClO3) ] x [(2 mol KCl)/ (2 mol KClO3)]

x g KCl = 0.12 mol KCl

How does the arrangement of atoms in a mineral relate to its properties?

MakcuM [25]

The arrangement of atoms in a mineral can change its physical and chemical properties.
Diamonds and coal are both made of carbon, however, their chemical and physical properties are very different.

The average density of a carbon-fiber-epoxy composite is 1.615 g/cm3. the density of the epoxy resin is 1.21 g/cm3 and that of t

ra1l [238]

The composite material is composed of carbon fiber and epoxy resins. Now, density is an intensive unit. So, to approach this problem, let's assume there is 1 gram of composite material. Thus, mass carbon + mass epoxy = 1 g.

Volume of composite material = 1 g / 1.615 g/cm³ = 0.619 cm³
Volume of carbon fibers = x g / 1.74 g/cm³
Volume of epoxy resin = (1 - x) g / 1.21 g/cm³

a.) V of composite = V of carbon fibers + V of epoxy resin
0.619 = x/1.74 + (1-x)/1.21
Solve for x,
x = 0.824 g carbon fibers
1-x = 0.176 g epoxy resins

Vol % of carbon fibers = [(0.824/1.74) ÷ 0.619]*100 = 76.5%

b.) Weight % of epoxy = 0.176 g epoxy/1 g composite * 100 = 17.6%
Weight % of carbon fibers = 0.824 g carbon/1 g composite * 100 = 82.4%

Valproic acid, used to treat seizures and bipolar disorder, is composed of C, H, and O. A 0.165-g sample is combusted to produce

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The empirical formula is = $C_4H_8O$

The formula of Valproic acid = $C_8H_{16}O_2$

Explanation:

Mass of water obtained = 0.166 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Moles of $H_2O$ = 0.166 g /18 g/mol = 0.00922 moles

2 moles of hydrogen atoms are present in 1 mole of water. So,

Moles of H = 2 x 0.00922 = 0.01844 moles

Molar mass of H atom = 1.008 g/mol

Mass of H in molecule = 0.01844 x 1.008 = 0.018588 g

Mass of carbon dioxide obtained = 0.403 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44.01 g/mol

Moles of $CO_2$ = 0.403 g /44.01 g/mol = 0.009157 moles

1 mole of carbon atoms are present in 1 mole of carbon dioxide. So,

Moles of C = 0.009157 moles

Molar mass of C atom = 12.0107 g/mol

Mass of C in molecule = 0.009157 x 12.0107 = 0.11 g

Given that the Valproic acid only contains hydrogen, oxygen and carbon. So,

Mass of O in the sample = Total mass - Mass of C - Mass of H

Mass of the sample = 0.165 g

Mass of O in sample = 0.165 - 0.11 - 0.018588 = 0.036412 g

Molar mass of O = 15.999 g/mol

Moles of O = 0.036412 / 15.999 = 0.002276 moles

Taking the simplest ratio for H, O and C as:

0.01844 : 0.002276 : 0.009157

= 8 : 1 : 4

The empirical formula is = $C_4H_8O$

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 4×12 + 8×1 + 16= 72 g/mol

Molar mass = 144 g/mol

So,

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

144 = n × 72

⇒ n = 2

The formula of Valproic acid = $C_8H_{16}O_2$

Anyway, which is a spectator ion involved in the reaction of k2cro4(aq) and ba(no3)2(aq)?

marissa [1.9K]

Nitrate ions $\text{NO}_3^{-}$ and potassium ions $\text{K}^{+}$ .

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Potassium dichromate undergoes a double-decomposition reaction with barium nitrate to produce barium dichromate and potassium nitrate. The reaction is possible due to the low solubility of barium dichromate that precipitate out of the solution readily after its production.

Start with the balanced chemical equation for this process:

$\text{K}_2\text{CrO}_4 \; (aq) + \text{Ba}(\text{NO}_3)_2 \; (aq) \to \text{Ba}(\text{CrO}_4)_2 \; (s) + 2 \; \text{KNO}_3 \; (aq)$

Rewrite the chemical equation as an ionic one; express all soluble salts- those with state symbol (aq)- as their constituting ions while leaving the insoluble (s) intact.

$2 \; \text{K}^{+}\; (aq)+ 2\; \text{CrO}_4^{-} \; (aq) + \text{Ba}^{2+} \; (aq) + 2 \; \text{NO}_3^{-} \; (aq) \\ \to \text{Ba}(\text{CrO}_4)_2 \; (s) + 2 \; \text{K}^{+} \; (aq) + 2 \; \text{NO}_3^{-} \; (aq)$

$\text{K}^{+}$ and $\text{CrO}_4^{-}$ are found on both sides of the equation by the same quantity. The two ions thus took no part in the net reaction and act as spectator ions.
