Consider the polymerization of styrene in toluene at 60°C initiated by di-t—butylperoxide for a solution containing 0.04 mol of

initiator and 2 mol of monomer per liter. The initial rates of initiation, Ri, and propagation, RP, are found to be 1.6 x 10'10 M s‘1 and 6.4 x 10‘7 M 3‘1, respectively, at 60°C.

The metallic radius of a lithium atom is 152 pm. What is the volume of a lithium atom in cubic meters?
eduard [2782]

Answer:

The calculated volume of a lithium atom is 1.47 X 10⁻²⁹ m³.

Explanation:

Assuming the atom's volume is spherical (though it’s actually more complex), the volume is mathematically represented by:

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^{3}----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(Eq. 1)

Here, R corresponds to the lithium atom's radius. Since the radius is provided in picometers, we first convert it into meters.

R=(152pm )(1X10^{-12}\frac{m}{pm})

R = 1.52 X 10^{-10}m

Substituting this value into Eq.1 provides the desired result.

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi {1.52X10^{-10}}^{3}

V= 1.47 X 10⁻²⁹ m³

A sample of H2SO4 contains 2.02 g of hydrogen, 32.07 g of sulfur, and 64.00 g of oxygen. How many grams of sulfur and grams of o
VMariaS [2998]
Analyzing the formula for sulfuric acid reveals the molar proportions:

H: S: O
2: 1: 4

Next, we need to convert the provided mass of hydrogen into moles, calculated by:

Moles = mass / Mr
Moles = 7.27 / 1
Moles = 7.27

Thus, the number of moles for each element are:

S = 7.27 / 2 = 3.64 moles
O = 7.27 * 2 = 14.54 moles

Subsequently, the masses for sulfur and oxygen are:
S = 32 * 3.64 = 116.48 grams
O = 16 * 14.54 = 232.64 grams

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.

How many grams of NaC2H3O2 are needed to prepare 350. mL of a 2.75 M solution? (molar mass of
eduard [2782]

Answer:

78.96 g of NaC2H3O2

Explanation:

The following information is provided:

  • The solution's volume is 350 mL
  • The solution's molarity is 2.75 M
  • The molar mass of NaC2H3O2 is 82.04 g/mol

We need to find the mass of the solute:

First, we calculate the number of moles:

Moles = Molarity × Volume

Thus;

Moles of solute = 2.75 M × 0.350 L

                        = 0.9625 moles

Next, we find the mass:

Mass = Moles × Molar mass

        = 0.9625 moles × 82.04 g/mol

        = 78.9635 g

      = 78.96 g

Therefore, the amount of NaC2H3O2 required is 78.96 g

0.475 g H, 7.557 gS, 15.107 g O. Express your answer as a chemical formula.
lorasvet [2795]

Response:

H₂SO₄

Clarification:

Given a compound consisting of 0.475 g H, 7.557 g S, and 15.107 g O, we must compute the empirical formula by following specific steps.

Step 1: Compute the total mass of the compound

Total mass = mass H + mass S + mass O = 0.475 g + 7.557 g + 15.107 g

Total mass = 23.139 g

Step 2: Determine the percentage composition.

H: (0.475g/23.139g) × 100% = 2.05%

S: (7.557g/23.139g) × 100% = 32.66%

O: (15.107g/23.139g) × 100% = 65.29%

Step 3: Divide each percentage by the element's atomic mass

H: 2.05/1.01 = 2.03

S: 32.66/32.07 = 1.018

O: 65.29/16.00 = 4.081

Step 4: Normalize all values by the smallest one

H: 2.03/1.018 ≈ 2

S: 1.018/1.018 = 1

O: 4.081/1.018 ≈ 4

Thus, the empirical formula for the compound is H₂SO₄.
