Silver is often extracted from ores such as k[ag(cn)2] and then recovered by the reaction 2k ⎡ ⎣ag(cn)2 ⎤ ⎦(aq) + zn(s) ⟶ 2ag(s)

+ zn(cn)2 (aq) + 2kcn(aq) (a) how many molecules of zn(cn)2 are produced by the reaction of 35.27 g of k[ag(cn)2]? (b) what mass of zn(cn)2 is produced?

Take note of the whole number beside each substance in the reaction because these will be used in the stoichiometric calculations below:

Molar mass of <span>k[ag(cn)2]:199 g/mol
Molar mass of Zn(Cn)2: 117.44 g/mol
Avogadro's number: 6.022</span>×10²³ molecules/mol

a.)

35.27 g*(1 mol/199 g)*(1 mol Zn(Cn)₂/ 2 mol K[Ag(CN)₂])*(6.022×10²³ molecules/mol) = <em>5.34×10²² molecules of Zn(Cn)₂</em>

b.)

35.27 g*(1 mol/199 g)*(1 mol Zn(Cn)₂/ 2 mol K[Ag(CN)₂])*(117.44 g/mol) = <em>10.41 g of Zn(Cn)₂</em>

What is the IUPAC name of the following compound?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

(d) 3,7-dimethyl-4-nonyne.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, considering the attached picture on which you can see that the main chain has nine carbon atoms, one tripe bond at the fourth carbon and two methyl radicals at the third and seventh carbons respectively, by following the IUPAC rules, the name would be: (d) 3,7-dimethyl-4-nonyne since the chain must start at the side closest to the first triple bond due to its priority and subsequently considering the present radicals.

Best regards.

To show the electron configuration for an atom, when would it be better to use an orbital notation than to use a written configu
VikaD [51]
The answer is <span>D.when the aim is to show electron distributions in shells. This is because there are some instances when elements don't possess a regular or normal electron configuration. There are those who have special electron configurations wherein a lower subshell isn't completely filled before occupying a higher subshell. It is best to visualize such cases using the orbital notation.</span>

How much maleic anhydride would you need to react 178 mg of anthracene? Assume 1:1 ratio from maleic anhydride to anthracene.
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

(1) 0.10      (2) 17.8 g

Explanation:

Since the reaction ratio is 1:1 what we need is to convert the given masses to moles and you will have the answer:

MW anthracene = 178.23 g/mol

MW maleic anhydride = 98.06 g/mol

a) mass anthracene = 178 mg x 1 g/ 1000 mg = 0.178 g anthracene

Moles anthracene = 0.178 g anthracene/ 178.23 g/mol

= 0.001 mol anthracene

0.001 mol anthracene x 1 mol maleic acid/mol anthracene

= 0.001 mol maleic anhydride

mass maleic anhydride  = 0.001 mol x 98.06 g/mol =  0.10 g

b) moles maleic anhydride = 9.8 g/ 98.06 g/mol = 0.099 moles

0.099 moles maleic anhydride x 1 mol anthracene/mol  maleic anhydride =

0.099 mol anthracene

g anthracene = 0.10mol x 178 g/mol = 17.8 g

Consider the following hypothetical reaction: 2 P + Q → 2 R + S The following mechanism is proposed for this reaction: P + P Q
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer: the answer is option (D). k[P]²[Q]

Explanation:

first of all, let us consider the reaction from the question;

2P + Q → 2R + S

and the reaction mechanism for the above reaction given thus,

P + P ⇄ T     (fast)

Q + T → R + U    (slow)

U → R + S    (fast)

we would be applying the Rate law  to determine the mechanism.

The mechanism above is a three step process where the slowest step seen is the rate determining step. From this, we can see that this slow step involves an intermediate T as reactant and is expressed in terms of a starting substance P.

It is important to understand that laws based on experiment do not allow for intermediate concentration.  

The mechanism steps for the reactions in the question  are given below when we add them by cancelling the intermediates on the opposite side of the equations then we get the overall reaction equation.

adding this steps gives a final overall reaction reaction.

2P + Q ------------˃ 2R + S

Thus the rate equation is given as

Rate (R) = K[P]²[Q]

cheers, i hope this helps
