Response:

a. To purify a gypsum sample, you will need the following equipment: Bunsen burner, beaker, filter funnel, stirring rod, and filter paper.

b. Gypsum, a sulfate mineral consisting of calcium sulfate dihydrate, can be purified by following these steps:

1. Add water to the gypsum in a beaker.

2. Stir the mixture thoroughly with the stirring rod.

3. Use the filter paper and filter funnel to remove excess solids from the mixture.

4. Heat the filtered mixture on the Bunsen burner to evaporate the remaining water.

5. After cooling, filter again through the filter paper to obtain pure gypsum.

Answer:

The configurations are illustrated below.

Explanation:

Hydrogen possesses a single electron in its outer shell, carbon has 4, nitrogen has 5, and oxygen holds 6. To achieve an octet (or duet for hydrogen), they require 1, 4, 3, and 2 electrons respectively.

Therefore, each hydrogen atom will share one electron with carbon, while the remaining electron will be shared with nitrogen, maintaining 4 electrons available for sharing. Carbon can form two bonds with both oxygen atoms, expanding its octet; however, this renders it unstable, leading to the formation of resonance structures (redistribution of electrons), and charge formation. One of the oxygen atoms will share only one electron with nitrogen.

The two structures are depicted below.

Answer:

The empirical formula is =

The Valproic acid formula is =

Explanation:

Mass of the produced water = 0.166 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

The moles of are calculated as 0.166 g /18 g/mol = 0.00922 moles.

In 1 mole of water, there are 2 moles of hydrogen atoms.

Thus,

Moles of H = 2 x 0.00922 = 0.01844 moles

Each hydrogen atom's molar mass is 1.008 g/mol.

Hydrogen mass in the molecule = 0.01844 x 1.008 = 0.018588 g

Mass of produced carbon dioxide = 0.403 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44.01 g/mol

The moles of are calculated as 0.403 g  /44.01 g/mol = 0.009157 moles.

Each carbon atom's presence is 1 mole in 1 mole of carbon dioxide.

So,

Moles of C = 0.009157 moles

The molar mass of carbon is 12.0107 g/mol.

Carbon mass in molecule = 0.009157 x 12.0107 = 0.11 g

Since Valproic acid comprises only hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon, the oxygen mass in the sample = Total mass - Carbon mass  - Hydrogen mass.

The sample's overall mass = 0.165 g.

Oxygen mass in the sample = 0.165 - 0.11 - 0.018588 = 0.036412 g  

The molar mass of oxygen is 15.999 g/mol.

Moles of O  = 0.036412  / 15.999  = 0.002276 moles

Taking the simplest ratio for H, O, and C yields:

0.01844: 0.002276: 0.009157

= 8: 1: 4

The empirical formula becomes

While molecular formulas detail the precise count of atoms for each element, empirical formulas represent the simplest form or reduced ratio of these elements in the compound.

Consequently,  

The molecular mass equals n × Empirical mass.

Here, n is a positive integer from 1, 2, 3...

Empirical mass = 4×12 + 8×1 + 16 = 72 g/mol.

Molar mass = 144 g/mol.

Thus,  

The molecular mass = n × Empirical mass.

144 = n × 72

⇒ n = 2

The Valproic acid formula is =

Based on the titration results, the adult would need to consume 85.7 mL to meet the recommended daily intake of 60 mg of Vitamin C. This is calculated from the average total volume of DCPIP used during trials.

Clarification:

The Na2 molecules comprise atoms that are connected by a purely covalent bond since both atoms have the same electronegativity.

Metallic bonding only manifests when several atoms cluster together. Such aggregates may not tend to be stable, as larger masses of material typically exhibit greater stability thermodynamically. Therefore, they often merge until a significant metal chunk is formed.

In some ways, metallic bonding can be considered a variant of covalent bonding, but it is more communal—delocalized across numerous atoms—and electron deficient (there are more energy states than available electrons, which contributes to conductive traits). This implies that the term “metallic bond” might appear contradictory, akin to referring to a forest with a single tree.
