Compound X contains only carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and chlorine. When 1.00 g of X is dissolved in water and allowed to react w

ith excess silver nitrate, AgNO3, all the chlorine in X reacts and 1.95 g of solid AgCl is formed. When 1.00 g of X undergoes complete combustion, 0.900 g of CO2 and 0.735 g of H2O are formed. What is the empirical formula of X?

Let's assume that the compound formula is as follows: Experiment 1: 1.00 g of the compound yields 1.95 g of AgCl. The molar mass of AgCl is 143.32 g/mol. Thus, the moles of AgCl for 1.95g are: The moles of Cl also equal 0.0136, considering that 1 mole of AgCl corresponds to 1 mole of Cl. Experiment 2: 1.00 g of the compound results in 0.900 g of CO2 and 0.735 g of H2O. The molar mass of CO2 is 44 g/mol, and for H2O, it's 18 g/mol. Therefore, the moles of C come to 0.0205 and the moles of H stand at 0.0816 (which is 2 times the moles of H2O). Now, from the provided details, it's derived that in 1.00 g of the compound, there are 0.0136 moles of Cl, 0.0205 moles of C, and 0.0816 moles of H. In terms of mass: Mass of Cl = 0.0136 * 35.5 = 0.4828 g. Mass of C = 0.0205 * 12 = 0.246 g. Mass of H = 0.0816 * 1 = 0.0816 g. Total mass = 0.4828 + 0.246 + 0.0816 + mass of N. Given that 1.00 = 0.8104 + Mass of N, it follows that Mass of N = 0.1896. Thus, upon dividing all moles by the smallest value, we find Cl = 0.0136 / 0.0135 = 1.0007; C = 0.0205 / 0.0135 = 1.52; H = 0.0816 / 0.0135 = 6.04; N = 0.0135 / 0.0135 = 1. Multiplying by 2 allows us to reach integer values: Cl = 2, C = 3, H = 12, N = 2.

The graph above shows the changes in temperature recorded for the 2.00 l of h2o surrounding a constant-volume container in which
Alekssandra [3086]

Answer:

25.2 kJ

Explanation:

The full question can be found in the image linked to this response.

It's important to highlight that the heat absorbed by the 2.00 L of water for increasing its temperature from the beginning to the end comes solely from the burning of benzoic acid, as there are no heat transfers to the container or the surroundings.

To find the heat released from benzoic acid combustion, we simply measure the heat needed to warm the water.

Q = mCΔT

To find the mass of the water,

Density = (mass)/(volume)

Mass = Density × volume

Density = 1 g/mL

Volume = 2.00 L = 2000 mL

Mass = 1 × 2000 = 2000 g

C = specific heat of water = 4.2 J/g.°C

ΔT = (final temperature) - (Initial temperature)

<pAccording to the graph,

Final water temperature = 25°C

Initial water temperature = 22°C

ΔT = 25 - 22 = 3°C

Q = (2000×4.2×3) = 25,200 J = 25.2 kJ

Hope this Helps!!!

a movable chamber has a volume of 18.5 L (at temperature of 18.5 C) assuming no gas escapes and the pressure remains constant wh
VMariaS [2998]

Answer:

39 ^\circ C

Explanation:

We have:

V₁ = 18.5 L

T₁ = 18.5° C = 273 + 18.5 = 291.5 K

V₂ = 19.8 L

T₂ =?

Pressure remains constant

Applying the ideal gas law

\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}

\dfrac{18.5}{291.5}=\dfrac{19.8}{T_2}

T_2 = 312 K

T_2 = 312 -273 =39 ^\circ C

Which of the following statements reasonably explains why this reaction has a low activation energy? View Available Hint(s) The
eduard [2782]

Answer;

Considering the types of bonds being created and severed in the transition state, the stability of this temporary structure is comparatively high.

Explanation;

  • The reaction can be expressed as follows; NO(g)+F2(g)→NOF(g)+F(g)
  • All chemical reactions, including exothermic ones, require activation energy to initiate. The activation energy is the least amount of energy needed for the reactants to come together, overcome opposing forces, and begin breaking bonds.
  • When molecules encounter each other, their kinetic energy may be sufficient to stretch, bend, and eventually break bonds, resulting in chemical reactions.

The atomic mass of 13C is 13.003355. Multiply the atomic mass of 13C by its abundance. Report the number to 8 significant digits
castortr0y [3046]

The result is 0.14303691.

Carbon-13 (¹³C) is a stable isotope of carbon with a mass number of 13, composed of six protons and seven neutrons.

Isotopes are elements that share the same atomic number but have different mass numbers, meaning they have a varying number of neutrons.

ω(¹³C) = 1.10% ÷ 100%.

ω(¹³C) = 0.0110; this indicates the natural abundance of carbon-13.

m(¹³C) = 13.003355; the atomic mass assigned to carbon-13.

ω(¹³C) · m(¹³C) = 0.0110 · 13.003355.

ω(¹³C) · m(¹³C) = 0.14303691.

The atomic radius of magnesium is 150 pm. The atomic radius of strontium is 200 pm. What is the atomic radius of calcium
castortr0y [3046]

Answer:

Calcium's atomic radius is roughly 175 pm.

Explanation:

We know that magnesium has an atomic radius of 150 pm.

The atomic radius of strontium measures 200 pm.

Since calcium's position is between magnesium and strontium in group 2 of the periodic table, its atomic radius should be roughly averaged between magnesium's and strontium's atomic radii because atomic radius is not constant.

Thus;

Calcium's atomic radius is approximately calculated as follows;

The average atomic radius is (200 + 150)/2 = 175 pm.
