What is the oxidation number for N in the compound NH3? (Recall that H usually has an oxidation number of +1.)
0 -3
0-1
Ο Ο
O +3

Answers

Answer:

the oxidation number is -3

Taking into account the definition of oxidation number, the oxidation number for N in the compound NH₃ is -3.

Definition of oxidation number

The oxidation number is the charge that an atom has; is an integer that represents the number of electrons an atom puts into play when it forms a given compound.

In other words, the oxidation number of an element is a value that indicates the number of electrons that element gains or loses when it combines with another.

Oxidation number determination

To determine the oxidation state it is necessary to know that The oxidation number of hydrogen in a compound is +1, except in metal hydrides, where is –1.

On the other side, the sum of the oxidation numbers of the existing elements in a chemical formula must add up to zero.

Then, considering the oxidation numbers of each element, multiplying it by the number of existing elements in the chemical formula and adding it and equaling it to zero, the value of the missing oxidation number can be obtained.

Oxidation number of nitrogen

In this case, the oxidation numbers of nitrogen is calculated as:

NH₃: oxidation numbers of nitrogen + 3×(+1)= 0

Solving:

oxidation numbers of nitrogen + 3= 0

oxidation numbers of nitrogen = -3

Finally, the oxidation number for N in the compound NH₃ is -3.

Substance Specific Heat Capacity (J/g*K) Elements aluminum, 0.900 AI graphite, 0.711 iron, Fe 0.450copper, Cu 0.387 gold, Au 0.129a. copper
b. aluminum
c. graphite
d. iron
e. gold

Answers

Answer:

b. aluminum

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1g of a material in 1°C.

Thus, the sample with the higher specific heat capacity is the sample that will require more energy to increase its temperature in 1°C, suffering the smallest change in temperature.

Thus, is the aluminium with 0.900J/gK the element that is most likely to undergo the smallest change in temperature:

Diazomethane has the following composition by mass: 28.57% C, 4.80% H, and 66.64% N. The molar mass of diazomethane is 42.04 g/mol. Find the molecular formula of diazomethane.

Answers

Answer:

CH2N2

Explanation:

To find the molecular formula, we must first find the empirical formula as follows:

28.57% C - 28.57g of Carbon

4.80% H - 4.80g of Hydrogen

66.64% N - 66.64g of Nitrogen

Next, we convert this mass values to mole by dividing by their respective atomic mass.

C = 28.57/12 = 2.38mol

H = 4.80/1 = 4.80mol

N = 66.64/14 = 4.76mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest mole value (2.38mol)

C = 2.38mol ÷ 2.38 = 1

H = 4.80mol ÷ 2.38 = 2.01

N = 4.76mol ÷ 2.38 = 2

The empirical ratio of C, H and N is therefore 1:2:2. Hence, the empirical formula is CH2N2

To calculate the molecular formula;

(CH2N2)n = 42.04 g/mol

{12 + 1(2) + 14(2)}n = 42.04

{12 + 2 + 28}n = 42.04

{42}n = 42.04

n = 42.04/42

n = 1.00009

Since n = 1, molecular formula is CH2N2

Answers

Answer:

(D) (CH3CH2)2NH

Explanation:

In order to decide which base is strongest we need to calculate its PKb

PKb = -log [Kb]

A large Kb value and small PKb value gives the strongest base

 Compound                   Kb                           PKb      

(A) C6H5NH2 -         4 x 10^-10                      9.349

(B) NH3                     1.76x 10^-5                    4.754

(C) CH3NH2              4.4x 10^-4                     3.357

(D) (CH3CH2)2NH   8.6x 10^-4                     3.066

(E) C5H5N                  1.7x10^-9                      8.77  

Clearly (CH3CH2)2NH is the strongest base.

How much heat is required to heat 1.6g of ice from -16c to steam at 112c?

Answers

Answer:

Total heat ≅ 49.07 kJ

Explanation:

Given that:

mass = 1.6 g = 0.016 kg

Initial temperature = - 16 ° C

final temperature = 112° C

specific heat for ice = 2.06 kJ/kgC

specific heat of water = 4.186 kJ/kgC

heat fusion of ice = 334 kJ/kg

specific heat for steam = 2.1 kJ/kgK

heat of vaporization of water = 2256 kJ/kg

To heat ice from -16 ° C to 0 ° C

Q₁ =  2.06 kJ/kgC × 0.016 kg ×  16 ° C

Q₁ =  0.52736 kJ

To melt Ice at 0° C

Q₂= 334 kJ/kg × 0.016 kg = 5.344 kJ

To heat water from 0° C to  100° C

Q₃ = 4.186 kJ/kgC × 0.016 kg  × 100° C

Q₃ = 6.6976 kJ

To vaporize water to steam at 100° C

Q₄ = 2256 kJ/kg × 0.016 kg = 36.096 kJ

To heat steam from 100C to 112° C

Q₅ = 2.1 kJ/kgC × 0.016 kg × 12 C

Q₅ = 0.4032 kJ

Total heat = Q₁ + Q₂ + Q₃ + Q₄  + Q₅

Total heat =  (0.52736 +  5.344 +  6.6976 + 36.096 + 0.4032) kJ

Total heat = 49.06816  kJ

Total heat ≅ 49.07 kJ

Thx

Answers

Answer:

[BaCl₂] = 1.42M

Explanation:

Given:    Na₂SO₄(aq) + BaCl₂(aq) => 2NaCl(aq) + BaSO₄(s)

The balanced equation shows a 1:1 reaction between Na₂SO₄(aq) & BaCl₂(aq) and means the moles of sodium sulfate used equals the moles of baium chloride used. The concentration is the theoretical mole value calculated divided by 0.050 Liters.

Na₂SO₄(aq) + BaCl₂(aq) => 2NaCl(aq) + BaSO₄(s)

Moles of Na₂SO₄(aq) = moles of BaCl₂(aq) = 10.09g/142.04g/mol = 0.071mole

∴ Molar Concentration of BaCl₂(aq) = moles BaCl₂/Volume of Soln in Liters

= 0.071mole/0.050Liters = 1.42M in BaCl₂.  

               

A 7.417 gram sample of an organic compound containing C, H and O is analyzed by combustion analysis and 10.52 grams of CO2 and 6.460 grams of H2O are produced. In a separate experiment, the molar mass is found to be 62.07 g/mol. Determine the empirical formula and the molecular formula of the organic compound.

Answers

Answer:

Empirical formula: CH₃O

Molecular formula: C₂H₆O₂

Explanation:

All carbon is converted in CO2 and all hydrogen in H2O. Thus, we can find mass of each element and, by subtracting, the mass of Oxygen:

Mass C:

10.52g CO2 * (1mol / 44g) = 0.239 moles CO2 = Moles C * (12.01g / mol) =

2.87g C

Mass H:

6.460g H2O * (1mol / 18g) = 0.359 moles H2O * 2 = 0.718 moles H * (1g / mol) =  

0.718g H

Mass O:

7.417g Sample - 2.87g C - 0.718g H =

3.829g O

Now, we can determine empirical formula defined as the simples whole number ratio of atoms present in a compound with moles of each atom:

Moles C: 0.239 moles C

Moles H: 0.718 moles H

Moles O: 3.829g * (1mol / 16g) = 0.239 moles O

The ratio of moles of each atom divided in moles of oxygen:

C: 0.239 mol / 0.239 mol = 1

H: 0.718 mol / 0.239 mol = 3

C: 0.239 mol / 0.239 mol = 1

Empirical formula: CH₃O

The molar mass of CH3O is:

12.01g/mol + 1g/mol*3 + 16g/mol =

31.01g/mol

That means molecular formula is twice empirical formula because its molecular mass is 31.01g/mol * 2 = 62.02g/mol ≈ 62.07g/mol

Molecular formula: C₂H₆O₂

A sample of rubidium contains two different isotopes. 72.15% of the sample

mass of the sample?

Answers

Answer:

Average atomic mass  = 85.557 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Percent abundance of Rb-85 = 72.15%

Percent abundance of Rb-87 = 27.85%

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass = (72.15×85)+(27.85×87) /100

Average atomic mass =  6132.75 + 2422.95 / 100

Average atomic mass = 8555.7 / 100

Average atomic mass  = 85.557 amu.

Activation energy is amount of energy required to start a reaction since an endothermic reaction absorbs energy from its environment to kick off its reaction, its activation energy is always higher than the potential energy of its products.

Chemical formula  is a way of representing information about the proportions of elements which are present in a compound or molecule.It is generally written with the symbols of chemical elements. It also makes use of brackets and subscripts.

Number of atoms of each element is written as a subscript .Chemical formula makes use of no words . It is not the same as structural formula .Chemical formula in the simplest form is called as the empirical formula.

Drawbacks of chemical formula are that they do not provide information about the position of atoms and not also on the structure. Owing  to these reasons, chemical formula is not that informative as that of structural formula.
