A student is given a 2.002 g sample of unknown acid and is told that it might be butanoic acid, a monoprotic acid (HC4H7O2, equa
KiRa [2933]
The unknown acid is identified as either butanoic acid or ascorbic acid. To ascertain the number of moles based on the given molarity, we utilize the following relationship: Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.570 M and Volume of solution = 39.55 mL. Utilizing the values in the provided equation, we derive the necessary data. The equation governing NaOH and monoprotic acid reactions indicates that one mole of NaOH reacts with one mole of HX, resulting in 0.0225 moles of the monoprotic acid. Conversely, in the case of NaOH and diprotic acid interactions, the stoichiometry is such that two moles of NaOH engage with one mole of diprotic acid. Consequently, we can calculate moles for butanoic acid with a mass of 2.002 g and a molar mass of 88 g/mol, leading us to the conclusion that both butanoic and ascorbic acids represent the unknown acid being neutralized.

A flask that can hold 158 g of water at 4oc can hold only 127 g of ethanol at the same temperature. what is the density of ethan
lions [2927]

Answer:

  • The density of ethanol measures 0.80 g/ml.

Explanation:

The density of water is known to be 1 g/ml, indicating that 158 g of water occupies a volume of 158 ml.

            d = m/v = 258/258 = 1 g/ml

This implies the volume will remain the same for ethanol.

            hence, the density of ethanol = 127/158 = 0.80 g/ml

what’s the empirical and molecular formula for a compound with 20.2% sodium, 37.6% sulfur, 42.2%oxygen and a molar mass of 682.8
Anarel [2989]

Answer:

Empirical formula: Na3S4O9

Molecular formula: Na6S8O18

Explanation:

1) Upang makuha ang empirical formula, na siyang pinaka-simpleng buong bilang na ratio ng bawat elemento sa hindi kilalang compound na ito, una nating hahatiin ang dami ng bawat elemento sa kanilang sariling atomic mass.

Na= 23g/mol, S= 32g/mol, O=16g/mol

Na = 20.2/23 = 0.878mol

S = 37.6/32 = 1.175mol

O = 42.2/16 = 2.638mol

Susundan ito sa pamamagitan ng paghahati ng bawat bilang ng moles sa pinakamababang halaga (0.878mol)

Na = 0.878/0.878 = 1

S = 1.175/0.878 = 1.34

O = 2.638/0.878 = 3.004

Susunod, paramihin ang bawat decimal na bahagi ng 3 upang maging buo ang mga numero:

Na = 3

S= 4.02 ~ 4

O= 9.012 ~ 9

Kaya, ang pinaka-simpleng ratio ng Na, S, at O ay 3:4:9 kaya, ang empirical formula ay Na3S4O9

2) Para makuha ang molecular formula, gagamitin natin ang molecular weight ng bawat elemento sa empirical ratio, at ang kabuuang molar mass ng compound i.e.

Molar mass ng compound= 682.8g/mol

molecular weight ng Na3S4O9 = (3 x 23g/mol) + (4 x 32 g/mol) + (9 x 16 g/mol)

= 69 + 128 + 144

= 341 g/mol

Kaya, (Na3S4O9)n = 682.8g/mol

= (341)n = 682.8

n = 682.8/341

n~ 2

Kaya, molecular formula = (Na3S4O9)2

= Na6S8O18
