Answer:

A chemical change occurred and a gas was produced.  

Step-by-step explanation:

If there is no chemical reaction, the <em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em> says that  

Total mass = Mass 1 + Mass 2

However, if the two liquids react and give off a gas, then

Total mass = Mass 1 + Mass 2 + Mass of gas

You are not measuring the mass of the gas, so the mass of the liquids after mixing is less than it was before mixing.

For example, if Liquid 1 was a solution of HCl and Liquid 2 was a solution of Na₂CO₃, they would give off CO₂ on mixing. but you would not be measuring the mass of the CO₂.

Cacodyl, which has an intolerable garlicky odor and is used in the manufacture of cacodylic acid, a cotton herbicide, has a mass
Papessa [141]

Answer:

The molecular formula of cacodyl is C₄H₁₂As₂.

Explanation:

<u>Let's assume we have 1 mol of cacodyl</u>, in that case we'd have 209.96 g of cacodyl and the<u> following masses of its components</u>:

  • 209.96 g * 22.88/100 = 48.04 g C
  • 209.96 g * 5.76/100 = 12.09 g H
  • 209.96 g * 71.36/100 = 149.83 g As

Now we convert those masses into moles:

  • 48.04 g C ÷ 12 g/mol = 4.00 mol C
  • 12.09 g H ÷ 1 g/mol = 12.09 mol H
  • 149.83 g As ÷ 74.92 g/mol = 2.00 mol As

Those amounts of moles represent the amount of each component in 1 mol of cacodyl, thus, the molecular formula of cacodyl is C₄H₁₂As₂.

The volume of a gas is 36.0 ml at 10.0°c and 4.50 atm. at what temperature (°c) will the gas have a pressure of 3.50 atm and a v
galben [10]
Using the combined gas law, where PV/T = constant, we first solve for PV/T for the initial conditions: (4.50 atm)(36.0 mL)/(10.0 + 273.15 K) = 0.57213.
Remember to use absolute temperature.
For the final conditions: (3.50 atm)(85.0 mL)/T = 297.5/T
Since these must equal, 0.57213 = 297.5/T
T = 519.98 K
Subtracting 273.15 gives 246.83 degC.

A liquid mixture containing 0.50 mole fraction benzene - toluene is contained in a storage vessel at 25°C and 1 atm. The vessel
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

a. Yes, it is flammable.

b. It can cause hazard and carcinogenic effect.

Explanation:

A. Yes, the vapor in the vessel is flammable because it is an organic solvent with a very low boiling point. For this reason, less energy can vaporize it. Therfore, a little high temperature or energy causes it to be very reactive and flammable.

B. - Being flammable makes it hazardous, that is, it is capable of being ignited and can burn easily, which makes it really dangerous.

- It results in carcinogenic effect on the body. Substances that cause carcinogenic effect are capable of increasing the risk of cancer. They might contain compounds that can initiate tumor.

When the temperature is high, the risk of explosion increases. Due to the fact that at higher temperature, the kinetic energy of the atoms which result in an increase in the volume and finally blasting of the vessel.

denpristay [2]

Effusion  is the process of a gas being poured out through a hole diametrically smaller than the structural exit of the container.

A lighter gas effuses faster than a heavier gas.

Thus gas A has a lower density and effuses slower than Gas B.
