How many carbon atoms are contained in 84.3 g of ethyne (c2h2)?

1 answer:

7 0

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

Answer:

The volume that this same amount of air will occupy in his lungs when he reaches a depth of 124 m is - 0.27 L.

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law

${P_1}\times {V_1}={P_2}\times {V_2}$

Given ,

V₁ = 3.6 L

V₂ = ?

P₁ = 1.0 atm

P₂ = 13.3 atm

Using above equation as:

${P_1}\times {V_1}={P_2}\times {V_2}$

${1.0\ atm}\times {3.6\ L}={13.3\ atm}\times {V_2}$

${V_2}=\frac{{1.0}\times {3.6}}{13.3}\ L$

${V_2}=0.27\ L$

The volume that this same amount of air will occupy in his lungs when he reaches a depth of 124 m is - 0.27 L.

Hatshy [7]

0.17 M is the is the molal concentration of this solution

Explanation:

Data given:

freezing point of glucose solution = -0.325 degree celsius

molal concentration of the solution =?

solution is of glucose=?

atomic mass of glucose = 180.01 grams/mole

freezing point of glucose = 146 degrees

freezing point of water = 0 degrees

Kf of glucose = 1.86 °C

ΔT = (freezing point of solvent) - (freezing point of solution)

ΔT = 0.325 degree celsius

molality =?

ΔT = Kfm

rearranging the equation:

m = $\frac{0.325}{1.86}$

m= 0.17 M

molal concentration of the glucose solution is 0.17 M

The gas in a sealed container has an absolute pressure of 125.4 kilopascals. If the air around the container is at a pressure of

AlexFokin [52]

Answer: C. 25.6 kPa

Explanation:

The Gauge pressure is defined as the amount of pressure in a fluid that exceeds the amount of pressure in the atmosphere.

As such, the formula will be,

PG = PT – PA

Where,

PG is Gauge Pressure

PT is Absolute Pressure

PA is Atmospheric Pressure

Inputted in the formula,

PG = 125.4 - 99.8

PG = 25.6 kPa

The gauge pressure inside the container is 25.6kPa which is option C.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

A titration

Explanation:

A common example of a titration is when we have an acid of unknown concentration, so we add a known volume of a base of known concentration. This process lets us determine the concentration of the acid.

By definition, a titration is a quantitative analysis, as we determine how much of an analyte is there in a sample. However, there are quantitative analyzes which are not titrations. This is why the most appropiate answer is a titration.
