Methyl Red, also called C.I. Acid Red 2, is an indicator dye that turns red in acidic solutions. 
Phenolphthalein is a sensitive chemical with the formula C20H14O4 (often written as "HIn" in chemistry shorthand notation). Often used in titrations, it turns from colorless in acidic solutions to pink in basic solutions. If the concentration of indicator is particularly strong, it can appear purple. A phenolphtalein turns a bright orange color, in a solution containing a ph below 0.

What mass of CaSO3 must have been present initially to produce 14.5 L of SO2 gas at a temperature of 12.5°C and a pressure of 1.
german
When the reaction equation is:

CaSO3(s) → CaO(s) + SO2(g)

we can see that the molar ratio between CaSO3 & SO2 is 1:1 so, we need to find first the moles SO2.

to get the moles of SO2 we are going to use the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

when P is the pressure =  1.1 atm

and V is the volume = 14.5 L 

n is the moles' number (which we need to calculate)

R ideal gas constant = 0.0821

and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 12.5 + 273 = 285.5 K

so, by substitution:

1.1 * 14.5 L = n * 0.0821 * 285.5

∴ n = 1.1 * 14.5 / (0.0821*285.5)

       = 0.68 moles SO2

∴ moles CaSO3 = 0.68 moles

so we can easily get the mass of CaSO3:

when mass = moles * molar mass

and we know that the molar mass of CaSO3= 40 + 32 + 16 * 3 = 120 g/mol


∴ mass = 0.68 moles* 120 g/mol = 81.6 g

Q 11.20: What is the product of the reaction between t-BuCl and MeOH? A : t-BuOH B : MeOCl C : t-BuOMe D : (CH3)2CCH2
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

C : t-BuOMe

Explanation:

The tert -butanol is a tertiary alcohol and when chloride ion attacks the carbocation, it forms t-BuCl.

The reaction of tert-butyl chloride or t-BuCl ((CH3)3C−Cl) with methanol and MeOH (CH3−OH) gives the product tert-Butyl methyl ether or t-BuOMe (CH3)3C−OCH3:

                   (CH3)3C−Cl + CH3−OH => (CH3)3C−OCH3 + HCl

Hence, the correct asnwer is C : t-BuOMe

Convert 26.02 x 1023 molecules of C2H8 to grams. Round your answer to the hundredths place.
aliina [53]

Answer:

x= 138.24 g

Explanation:

We use the avogradro's number

6.023 x 10^23 molecules -> 1 mol C2H8

26.02 x 10^23 molecules -> x

x= (26.02 x 10^23 molecules  * 1 mol C2H8 )/6.023 x 10^23 molecules

x= 4.32 mol C2H8

1 mol C2H8     -> 32 g

4.32 mol C2H8 -> x

x= (4.32 mol C2H8 * 32 g)/ 1 mol C2H8

x= 138.24 g

In two or more complete sentences explain how to balance the chemical equation and classify its reaction type. ___P4 + ___O2 ⟶ _
Serhud [2]

According to the conversation of mass, mass cannot be created or destroyed. This means whatever is done to one side, must be done to the other.

There are 4 Phosphorus atoms on the left, there must be 4 on the right. To do this, you must multiply the P2O3 by 2 to get 4 Phosphorus atoms and 6 Oxygen atoms. Now to balance the Oxygen atoms, you must multiply the oxygen atoms on the left by 3.

1 P4 + 3 O2 —-> 2 P2O3

Lastly, this equation type is synthesis (combination) because two reactants are becoming a single product.
