Compound A reacts with Compound B to form only one product, Compound C, and it's known the usual percent yield of C in this reac

tion is 78%. Suppose 10.0 g of A are reacted with excess Compound B, and 12.9g of Compound C are successfully isolated at the end of the reaction.
1. What was the theoretical yield of C?
2. How much B was consumed by the reaction?

Response:

1. 16.54 grams.

2. 6.64 grams.

Clarification:

Greetings,

In this situation, the chemical reaction taking place is:

A+B\rightarrow C

Thus, based on the provided data, the theoretical yield of C can be determined as:

m_C^{theoretical}=\frac{12.9g}{0.78}=16.54g

Additionally, taking into account the principle of conservation of mass, the mass prior to the reaction is equal to the mass following the reaction, hence, the mass of B that was utilized amounts to:

m_B=m_C-m_A=16.54g-10.0g=6.64g

Best regards.

A 19.3-g mixture of oxygen and argon is found to occupy a volume of 16.2 l when measured at 675.9 mmhg and 43.4oc. what is the p
KiRa [2933]
<span>The partial pressure of oxygen is 438.0 mmHg. The ideal gas equation is expressed as PV = nRT where P represents pressure, V denotes volume, n is the number of moles, R is the ideal gas constant (8.3144598 (L*kPa)/(K*mol)), and T signifies absolute temperature. To convert from Celsius to Kelvin, we have 43.4 + 273.15 = 316.55 K. For the pressure conversion from mmHg to kPa: 675.9 mmHg * 0.133322387415 = 90.11260165 kPa. When solving for n using the ideal gas equation, we derive n = PV / (RT) which provides n = 90.11260165 kPa * 16.2 L / (8.3144598 (L*kPa)/(K*mol) * 316.55 K)= 1459.824147 L*kPa / 2631.94225 (L*kPa)/(mol), resulting in n = 0.554656603 mol. Thus, we have 0.554656603 moles of gas particles. Next, we determine the contribution from oxygen. The atomic weight of oxygen is 15.999 g/mol, while argon is 39.948 g/mol, and the molar mass of O2 is 31.998 g/mol. We establish the relationships where M is the number of moles of O2, and 0.554656603 - M gives the number of moles of Ar. Setting up the equation: M * 31.998 + (0.554656603 - M) * 39.948 = 19.3, we solve for M resulting in 0.359424148 moles of oxygen out of 0.554656603 total moles. This leads to oxygen providing 0.359424148 / 0.554656603 = 0.648012024 or 64.8012024% of the total pressure of 675.9 mmHg. The partial pressure therefore calculates to 675.9 * 0.648012024 = 437.9913271 mmHg, rounded to 438.0 mmHg</span>

In living organisms, C-14 atoms disintegrate at a rate of 15.3 atoms per minute per gram of carbon. A charcoal sample from an ar
lions [2927]

Answer:

The result is "4,241.17 years"

Explanation:

The disintegration rate for C-14 atoms is indicated in  15.3 \frac{atoms}{min-g}

The dissolution rate of the sample is given by 9.16 \frac{atoms} {min-gram}

The C-14 proportion within the sample can be determined as per = \frac {9.16}{15.3} \\\\ = 0.5987

With a half-life of 5730 years.

Now, we need to compute the number of half-lives (n) that are applicable:

(\frac{1}{2})^n= A\\\\A= fraction of C-14, which is remaining \\\\(\frac{1}{2})^n= 0.5987 \\\\ n \log 2 = - \log 0.5987\\\\

\therefore \\\\ \Rightarrow n= \frac{0.227}{0.3010} \\\\ = 0.740\\

Thus, the age of the sample is represented as = n \times\ half-life

                                                 = 0.740 \times 5730 \ years \\\\=4241.17 \ years\\\\

What is the conjugate acid of each of the following? What is the conjugate base of each?
lions [2927]

Answer:

a. H₂O (conjugate acid); b. OH⁻ (conjugate base), H₃O⁺ (conjugate acid); c. H₂CO₃ (conjugate acid), CO₃⁻² (conjugate base); d. NH₄⁺ (conjugate strong acid) e. H₂SO₄ (conjugate acid), SO₄⁻² (conjugate base); f. No conjugate acid or base exists; g. H₂S (conjugate acid), S⁻² (conjugate base);

h. H₄N₂ (conjugate base)

Explanation:

a. OH⁻ + H⁺ ⇄ H₂O

The hydroxide functions as a Bronsted-Lowry base, allowing it to capture a proton, thus water serves as the conjugate acid.

b. H₂O is amphoteric, capable of acting as either an acid or a base. As a base, its conjugate acid is H₃O⁺, whereas as an acid, its conjugate base is OH⁻.

c. HCO₃⁻ + H⁺ ⇄ H₂CO₃

HCO₃⁻ + H₂O ⇄ CO₃⁻² + H₃O⁺

Bicarbonate is also amphoteric. When it captures a proton, it forms carbonic acid as the conjugate acid when acting as a base. When HCO₃⁻ acts as an acid and releases a proton, carbonate becomes the conjugate base.

d. Ammonia functions as a weak base, with ammonium being the conjugate strong acid.

NH₃ + H₂O ⇄ NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

e. Another amphoteric compound. Acid sulfate can function as both an acid and a base.

(similar to bicarbonate). Acting as a base yields sulfuric acid as the conjugate acid, while acting as an acid leads to sulfate as the conjugate base.

HSO₄⁻ + H₂O ⇄ SO₄⁻² + H₃O⁺

HSO₄⁻ + H⁺ ⇄ H₂SO₄

f. H₂O₂ does not accept H⁺ or OH⁻ nor does it expel H⁺. It’s neutral and does not function as an acid or base.

g. HS⁻ is amphoteric.

HS⁻ + H⁺ ⇄ H₂S

HS⁻ + H₂O ⇄ S⁻² + H₃O⁺

This is similar to the case of bicarbonate or acid sulfate.

h. H₅N₂⁺ + H₂O ⇄ H₄N₂ + H₃O⁺

Hydrazinium acts as an acid, making hydrazine its conjugate base.

An atom has four electrons in its valence shell. What types of covalent bonds is it capable of forming?
Tems11 [2777]
An atom that contains four electrons in its valence shell is capable of forming multiple types of bonds: single bonds, as an atom fitting this description can create four single bonds or a mix of single, double, and triple bonds. Take for instance alkanes, where this atom could form one double bond along with two single bonds, or conversely, two double bonds, which is seen in alkenes. For triple bonds, this atom could make one triple bond and a single bond, as seen in alkynes.
