We have

a swimming pool that holds 2,850 kiloliters (kL) of water

2,850 kiloliters (kL) equals 2,850,000 liters (L)

We understand that

$1gal=3.785L$

$3.785L=1gal$

First, we will calculate for 1L

$1L=\frac{1}{3.785}gal$

Now, both sides will be multiplied by 2,850,000

$2850000*1L=2850000*\frac{1}{3.785}gal$

$2850000L=2850000*\frac{1}{3.785}gal$

$2850000L=752972.25892gal$

Consequently,

the swimming pool's water volume is 752972.25892 gallons..........Answer

In an experiment, hydrochloric acid reacted with different volumes of sodium thiosulfate in water. A yellow precipitate was form

KiRa [2933]

I predict that there will be an increase in the seconds recorded in the time column. This is because, as more water is mixed with sodium thiosulfate, its concentration diminishes in each flask. Additionally, a lower concentration results in a slower reaction rate since fewer molecules of sodium thiosulfate means there are less frequent collisions with sulfuric acid. With fewer collisions occurring in the reaction, it takes a longer time for the reaction to complete, leading to increased time when sodium thiosulfate is diluted.

Explanation:

I can confirm that this explanation is accurate.

An alkene with the molecular formula C8H16 undergoes ozonolysis to yield a mixture of (CH3)2C=O and (CH3)3CCHO. The alkene is:

eduard [2782]

The ozonolysis of 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene produces a combination of $(CH_{3})_{2}C=O$ and $(CH_{3})_{3}CHO$

Explanation: In ozonolysis (where a reducing agent like Zn is involved during hydrolysis), a pi bond cleaves to generate ketones or aldehydes.

Ketones arise from the double bond's disubstituted side, whereas aldehydes come from the monosubstituted side of the same bond.

Notably, ozonolysis comprises two steps: (1) the formation of an ozonide, followed by (2) the hydrolysis of the ozonide.

Hydrolysis can transpire with or without a reducing agent. When it occurs without a reducing agent, carboxylic acid, carbon dioxide, or ketones can be produced.

In this case, 2,4,4-trimethyl-2-pentene yields a mixture of $(CH_{3})_{2}C=O$ and $(CH_{3})_{3}CHO$

The reaction process is illustrated below.

Ibuprofen, a headache remedy, contains 75.69% C, 8.80% H, and 15.51% O by mass and has a molar mass of 206 g/mol. Express your a

castortr0y [3046]

Answer:

A) The molecular formula for ibuprofen is $C_{13}H_{18}O_2$

B) The molecular formula for Cadaverine is $C_{5}H_{14}N_2$

C) The molecular formula for Epinephrine is $C_9H_{13}O_3N_1$

Explanation:

Element percentage in a compound:

$\frac{\text{Number of atoms of element}\times \text{Atomic mass of element}}{\text{molecular mass of element}}\times 100$

A) The composition of ibuprofen, used for headaches, consists of 75.69% carbon, 8.80% hydrogen, and 15.51% oxygen by weight.

Ibuprofen has a molar mass of 206 g/mol.

The proposed molecular formula for ibuprofen is = $C_xH_yO_z$

Count of carbon atoms in one ibuprofen molecule;

$75.69\%=\frac{x\times 12 g/mol}{206 g/mol}\times 100$

$x=\frac{75.69\times 206 g/mol}{100\times 12 g/mol}=12.99\approx 13$

Count of hydrogen atoms in one ibuprofen molecule;

$8.80\%=\frac{y\times 1 g/mol}{206 g/mol}\times 100$

$y=\frac{8.80\times 206 g/mol}{100\times 1 g/mol}=18.12\approx 18$

Count of oxygen atoms in one ibuprofen molecule;

$15.51\%=\frac{z\times 16 g/mol}{206 g/mol}\times 100$

$z=\frac{15.51\times 206 g/mol}{100\times 16 g/mol}=1.99\approx 2$

Molecular formula for ibuprofen:

= $C_xH_yO_z= C_{13}H_{18}O_2$

B) Cadaverine consists of 58.55% carbon, 13.81% hydrogen, and 27.40% nitrogen by weight

Cadaverine has a molar mass of 102.2 g/mol.

The proposed molecular formula for Cadaverine is = $C_xH_yN_z$

Count of carbon atoms in one Cadaverine molecule;

$58.55\%=\frac{x\times 12 g/mol}{102.2 g/mol}\times 100$

$x=\frac{58.55\times 102.2 g/mol}{100\times 12 g/mol}=4.98\approx 5$

Count of hydrogen atoms in one Cadaverine molecule;

$13.81\%=\frac{y\times 1 g/mol}{102.2 g/mol}\times 100$

$y=\frac{13.81\times 102.2 g/mol}{100\times 1 g/mol}=14.11\approx 14$

Count of nitrogen atoms in one Cadaverine molecule;

$27.40\%=\frac{z\times 14 g/mol}{102.2 g/mol}\times 100$

$z=\frac{27.40\times 102.2 g/mol}{100\times 14 g/mol}=2.00\approx 2$

Molecular formula for Cadaverine:

= $C_xH_yN_z= C_{5}H_{14}N_2$

C) Epinephrine includes 59.0% carbon, 7.1% hydrogen, 26.2% oxygen, and 7.7% nitrogen by weight

Epinephrine has a molar mass of 180 g/mol.

The proposed molecular formula for Epinephrine is = $C_xH_yO_zN_w$

Count of carbon atoms in one Epinephrine molecule;

$59.0\%=\frac{x\times 12 g/mol}{180 g/mol}\times 100$

$x=\frac{59.0\times 180 g/mol}{100\times 12 g/mol}=8.85\approx 9$

Count of hydrogen atoms in one Epinephrine molecule;

$7.1\%=\frac{y\times 1 g/mol}{180 g/mol}\times 100$

$y=\frac{7.1\times 180 g/mol}{100\times 1 g/mol}=12.78\approx 13$

Count of oxygen atoms in one Epinephrine molecule;

$26.2\%=\frac{z\times 16 g/mol}{180 g/mol}\times 100$

$z=\frac{26.2\times 180 g/mol}{100\times 16 g/mol}=2.94\approx 3$

Count of nitrogen atoms in one Epinephrine molecule;

$7.7\%=\frac{w\times 14 g/mol}{180 g/mol}\times 100$

$w=\frac{7.7\times 180 g/mol}{100\times 14 g/mol}=0.99\approx 1$

Molecular formula for Epinephrine:

= $C_xH_yO_zN_w= C_9H_{13}O_3N_1$
