When the molar mass M = mass (g)/ no.of moles (Mol)

∴ moles= 0.271 g / M

By using the gas equation:

PV = n RT

when P is the pressure = 847 mmHg / 760 = 1.11 atm

V is the volume = 0.294 L

n = 0.271 / M

R is constant = 0.0821 

T= 140+273 = 413 K

so by substitution:

when n = PV/RT

∴ 0.271/ M = 1.11 atm *0.294 L/ 0.0821 *413

∴ M = 28 


when the empirical formula of CH2 = 12+2 = 14 

∴ the exact no.of moles = 28/14 = 2

∴the molecular formula = 2(CH2) = C2H4

During a lab experiment performed at STP conditions, you prepare HCl by reacting 100. ml of Cl2 gas with an excess of H2 gas.
Brrunno [24]

Answer: 19.4 mL Ba(OH)2

Explanation:

H2(g) + Cl2(g) --> 2HCl(aq) (make sure this equation is balanced first)

At STP, 1 mol gas = 22.4 L gas. Use this conversion factor to convert the 100. mL of Cl2 to moles.

0.100 L Cl2 • (1 mol / 22.4 L) = 0.00446 mol Cl2

Use the mole ratio of 2 mol HCl for every 1 mol Cl2 to find moles of HCl produced.

0.00446 mol Cl2 • (2 mol HCl / 1 mol Cl2) = 0.00892 mol HCl

HCl is a strong acid and Ba(OH)2 is a strong base so both will completely ionize to release H+ and OH- respectively. You need 0.00892 mol OH- to neutralize all of the HCl. Note that one mole of Ba(OH)2 contains 2 moles of OH-.

0.00892 mol OH- • (1 mol Ba(OH)2 / 2 mol OH-) • (1 L Ba(OH)2 / 0.230 M Ba(OH)2) = 0.0194 L = 19.4 mL Ba(OH)2

Standard Thermodynamic Quantities for Selected Substances at 25 ∘C Reactant or product ΔHf∘(kJ/mol) Al(s) 0.0 MnO2(s) −520.0 Al2
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

-1815.4 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Starting with standard enthalpies of formation you can calculate the standard enthalpy for the reaction doing this simple calculation:

∑ n *ΔH formation (products) - ∑ n *ΔH formation (reagents)

This is possible because enthalpy is state function meaning it only deppends on the initial and final state of the system (That's why is also possible to "mix" reactions with Hess Law to determine the enthalpy of a new reaction). Also the enthalpy of formation is the heat required to form the compound from pure elements, then products are just atoms of reagents organized in a different form.

In this case:

ΔH rxn = [(2 * -1675.7) - (3 * -520.0)] kJ/mol = -1815.4 kJ/mol

A proton transfer reaction can occur when an aldehyde is placed in strong base, such as an alkoxide ion, producing an alcohol an
Pani-rosa [81]

Hi, you have not provided structure of the aldehyde and alkoxide ion.

Therefore i'll show a mechanism corresponding to the proton transfer by considering a simple example.

Explanation: For an example, let's consider that proton transfer is taking place between a simple aldehyde e.g. acetaldehyde and a simple alkoxide base e.g. methoxide.

The hydrogen atom attached to the carbon atom adjacent to aldehyde group are most acidic. Hence they are removed by alkoxide preferably.

After removal of proton from aldehyde, a carbanion is generated. As it is a conjugated carbanion therefore the negative charge on carbon atom can conjugate through the carbonyl group to form an enolate which is another canonical form of the carbanion.

All the structures are shown below.
