An air sample consists of oxygen and nitrogen gas as major components. It also contains carbon dioxide and traces of some rare g
Anarel [2989]

Explanation:

A mixture refers to a substance that contains two or more different kinds of substances that are combined physically.

For instance, air is a mixture that contains oxygen, nitrogen, and other gases.

A heterogeneous mixture is characterized by uneven distribution of solute particles in the solvent.

For example, sand suspended in water is a heterogeneous mixture.

Conversely, a homogeneous mixture is one where the solute particles are uniformly distributed in a solvent.

A homogeneous mixture appears as a clear solution.

For instance, when salt dissolves in water, it forms a homogeneous mixture.

A solution is defined as a mixture of two or more substances combined together.

A compound consists of two or more different elements chemically bonded together in a specific mass ratio.

An element is the simplest form of a substance that comprises only one type of atom.

For example, a piece of sodium is composed solely of sodium atoms.

Conversely, a pure substance refers to a material consisting of just one type of molecule or atom.

For example, O_{2}, N_{2} etc are considered pure substances.

Thus, it can be concluded that the air sample can be described using the terms:

  • pure chemical substance.
  • heterogeneous mixture.
  • mixture.

A piece of iron (C=0.449 J/g°C) and a piece of gold (C=0.128 J/g°C) have identical masses. If the iron has an initial temperatur
lorasvet [2795]
The true statement is B. With identical masses for both metals, the final temperature of the two will be more aligned with 498 K rather than 298 K, as iron's specific heat capacity is significantly greater than that of gold's.

A crystallographer measures the horizontal spacing between molecules in a crystal. The spacing is
castortr0y [3046]

Answer: The overall width of a crystal measures 1.65 mm.

Explanation:

Horizontal distance separating the two molecules is 16.5 nm.

Width of the 10^5 molecules:16.5 nm\times 10^5=16.5\times 10^5 nm

1 nm=10^{-6} mm

The overall width of a crystal measured in millimeters=16.5\times 10^5\times 10^{-6} mm=1.65 mm

The overall width of a crystal is 1.65 mm.

Valproic acid, used to treat seizures and bipolar disorder, is composed of C, H, and O. A 0.165-g sample is combusted to produce
VMariaS [2998]

Answer:

The empirical formula is = C_4H_8O

The Valproic acid formula is = C_8H_{16}O_2

Explanation:

Mass of the produced water = 0.166 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

The moles of H_2O 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 CO_2 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 C_4H_8O

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 = C_8H_{16}O_2
