Acetaminophen as a chemical formula of C8H9NO2. The molar masses are:

C8H9NO2 = 151.163 g/mol

C = 12 g/mol

H = 1 g/mol

N = 14 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

 

<span>TO get the mass percent, simply multiply the molar mass of each elements  with the number of the element divide by the molar mass of acetaminophen, that is:</span>

%C = [(12 * 8) / 151.163] * 100% = 63.50%

%H = [(1 * 9) / 151.163] * 100% = 5.954%

%N = [(14 * 1) / 151.163] * 100% = 9.262%

<span>%O = [(16 * 2) / 151.163] * 100% = 21.17% </span>

A vessel contained N2, Ar, He, and Ne. The total pressure in the vessel was 987 torr. The partial pressures of nitrogen, argon,
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The partial pressure of neon in the vessel was 239 torr.

Explanation:

In all cases involving gas mixtures, the total gas pressure is related to the partial pressures, that is, the pressures of the individual gaseous components of the mixture. Put simply, the partial pressure of a gas is the pressure it exerts on a mixture of gases.

Dalton's law states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were alone. Then:

PT= P1 + P2 + P3 + P4…+ Pn

where n is the amount of gases present in the mixture.

In this case:

PT=PN₂ + PAr + PHe + PNe

where:

  • PT= 987 torr
  • PN₂= 44 torr
  • PAr= 486 torr
  • PHe= 218 torr
  • PNe= ?

Replacing:

987 torr= 44 torr + 486 torr + 218 torr + PNe

Solving:

987 torr= 748 torr + PNe

PNe= 987 torr - 748 torr

PNe= 239 torr

<u><em>The partial pressure of neon in the vessel was 239 torr.</em></u>

A 2 mole sample of F2(g) reacts with excess NaOH(aq) according to the equation above. If the reaction is repeated with excess Na
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

The amount of NaF produced is doubled.

(d) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

A 2 mole sample of F₂ reacts with excess NaOH according to the equation.

The balance equation is

2F_{2}+2NaOH\Rightarrow 2NaF +H_{2}O+OF_{2}

If the reaction is repeated with excess NaOH but with 1 mole of F₂

The balance equation is

F_{2}+2NaOH\Rightarrow 2NaF +2OH

Hence, The amount of NaF produced is doubled.

(d) is correct option.

A scientist is wondering why a certain region in the ocean doesn't have maximum phytoplankton growth, despite having plenty of n
Advocard [28]

Answer:

C The water had adequate nitrogen and phosphorus, so it is likely iron limited.

Explanation:

Phytoplankton are single- cell organisms that live in oceans.

They require nitrogen, phosphorus and trace amount of iron to survive.

From the scientist's results after testing the water for nitrogen and phosphorus,there are reasonable amount of these elements.

Therefore insufficient iron in the water is the reason why he could find plenty phytoplankton in the ocean.
