<span>To arrive at an answer in units of carbon atoms, first we must cancel out the grams by diving 84.3g C2H2 by the molar mass of C2H2 (26.038g/mol). This molar mass is calculated by adding the masses of 2 carbon atoms (12.011g/mol) and 2 hydrogen atoms (1.008g/mol). This renders units of moles of ethyne. Next multiply by Avagadro's number (6.022x10^23 atoms/mol) to cancel the moles of ethyne and reach atoms of ethyne. Finally, because there are 2 carbon atoms in C2H2, multiply by 2 atoms Carbon/1 atom C2H2 to reach the final answer of 3.90x10^24 atoms of Carbon. This answer has been rounded to three significant figures because the lowest known value of significant figures throughout the calculations was three (84.3). The entire process is as follows: 84.3g C2H2 x (1 mol C2H2)/(26.038 g C2H2) x (6.022x10^23 atoms C2H2)/(1 mol C2H2) x (1 atoms C2H2)/(2 atom C) = 3.90x10^24 atoms C</span>

Tasya [4]

Answer:

Lewis acid- Fe3+

Lewis base- water molecule

Explanation:

Acids and bases have been defined in diverse ways. There have been definitions put forward by Arrhenius, Brownstead and Lowry as well as Lewis. Each definition his useful in its own way.

Lewis acids are lone pair acceptors such as metal ions. This implies that in the particular instance of this reaction, Fe3+ is the lewis acid.

Similarly, a Lewis base is a lone pair donor, all ligands are lone pair donors since they donate one or more lone pairs of electrons to Lewis acids. In the particular instance of this reaction, the Lewis base is the water molecule.

A sample of an unknown compound with a mass of 0.847 g has the following composition: 50.51 % fluorine and 49.49 % iron. When th
sergejj [24]

Answer: 0,4278g of F and 0,4191g of Fe

Explanation: it's possible to calculate the mass of each element by multiplying the percentage (decimal) of the element by the mass of the compound.

For Fluorine (F)

0,847g * 0,5051 = 0,4278g of F

For iron (Fe)

0,847 * 0,4949 = 0,4191g of Fe

This is determined because even when the compound is decomposed, due to conservative law of mass, the decomposition process do not affect the amount of matter, so the mass of the elements remain even if they are separated from the original molecule.

At the end, the sum of the elements masses should be the total mass of the compound.

How does 0.5 m sucrose (molecular mass 342) solution compare to 0.5 m glucose (molecular mass 180) solution?
mash [69]

Answer : Both solutions contain 3.011 X 10^{23} molecules.

Explanation : The number of molecules of 0.5 M of sucrose is equal to the number of molecules in 0.5 M of glucose. Both solutions contain 3.011 x 10^{23} molecules.

Avogadro's Number is  N_{A} =  6.022 X 10^{23} which represents particles per mole and particles may be typically molecules, atoms, ions, electrons, etc.

Here, only molarity values are given; where molarity is a measurement of concentration in terms of moles of the solute per liter of solvent.

Since each substance has the same concentration, 0.5 M, each will have the same number of molecules present per liter of solution.

Addition of molar mass for individual substance is not needed. As if both are considered in 1 Liter they would have same moles which is 0.5.

We can calculate the number of molecules for each;

Number of molecules  = N_{A} X M;

∴  Number of molecules =  6.022 X 10^{23} X 0.5 mol/L X 1 L which will be  = 3.011 X 10^{23}

Thus, these solutions compare to each other in that they have not only the same concentration, but they will have the same number of solvated sugar molecules. But the mass of glucose dissolved will be less than the mass of sucrose.

svlad2 [7]

<span>The energy that was produced is called, heat combustion. It is an energy released in the form of heat when chemicals are mixed. An explosion of light and sound are the common characteristics of heat combustion. The chemical reaction takes place because of the presence of oxygen and hydrocarbon or organic molecule substances that when mixed form carbon dioxide and water which then releases heat and explosive characteristics.</span>

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

This experiment converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. The movement of the magnet in and out of the coil is mechanical energy and the current induced in the circuit as a result of the magnet movement is electrical energy.

It should be noted that generally electromagnetic induction as described by faraday (and indeed the experiment described in the question) involves the transformation of mechanical energy into electrical energy. It's application is used in transformers, electric motors and generators.
