Answer:
a. 2NO₂ (g) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻ (aq) + H₂O (l)
b. i. NO₂⁻ is the oxidizing agent
ii. NO₃⁻ is the reducing agent.
Explanation:
a. Balance the following skeleton reaction
The reaction is
NO₂ (g) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻ (aq)
The half reactions are
NO₂ (g) → NO₃⁻ (aq) (1) and
NO₂ (g) → NO₂⁻ (aq) (2)
We balance the number of oxygen atoms in equation(1) by adding one H₂O molecule to the left side.
So, NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq)
We now add two hydrogen ions 2H⁺ on the right hand side to balance the number of hydrogen atoms
NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq)
The charge on the left hand side is zero while the total charge on the right hand side is -1 + 2 = +1. To balance the charge on both sides, we add one electron to the right hand side.
So, NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq) + e⁻ (4)
Since the number of atoms in equation two are balanced, we balance the charge since the charge on the left hand side is zero and that on the right hand side is -1. So, we add one electron to the left hand side.
So, NO₂ (g) + e⁻ → NO₂⁻ (aq) (5)
We now add equation (4) and (5)
So, NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq) + e⁻ (4)
+ NO₂ (g) + e⁻ → NO₂⁻ (aq) (5)
2NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) + e⁻ → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻ (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq) + e⁻ (4)
2NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻ (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq)
We now add two hydroxide ions to both sides of the equation.
So, 2NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻ (aq) + 2H⁺ (aq) + 2OH⁻ (aq)
The hydrogen ion and the hydroxide ion become a water molecule
2NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻ (aq) + 2H₂O (l)
2NO₂ (g) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻ (aq) + H₂O (l)
So, the required reaction is
2NO₂ (g) + 2OH⁻ (aq) → NO₃⁻ (aq) + NO₂⁻ (aq) + H₂O (l)
b. Identify the oxidizing agent and reducing agent
Since the oxidation number of oxygen in NO₂ is -2. Since the oxidation number of NO₂ is zero, we let x be the oxidation number of N.
So, x + 2 × (oxidation number of oxygen) = 0
x + 2(-2) = 0
x - 4 = 0
x = 4
Since the oxidation number of oxygen in NO₂⁻ is -1. Since the oxidation number of NO₂⁻ is -1, we let x be the oxidation number of N.
So, x + 2 × (oxidation number of oxygen) = 0
x + 2(-2) = -1
x - 4 = -1
x = 4 - 1
x = 3
Also, the oxidation number of oxygen in NO₃⁻ is -1. Since the oxidation number of NO₃⁻ is -1, we let x be the oxidation number of N.
So, x + 2 × (oxidation number of oxygen) = -1
x + 3(-2) = -1
x - 6 = -1
x = 6 - 1
x = 5
i. The oxidizing agent
The oxidation number of N changes from +4 in NO₂ to +3 in NO₂⁻. So, Nitrogen is reduced and thus NO₂⁻ is the oxidizing agent
ii. The reducing agent
The oxidation number of N changes from +4 in NO₂ to +5 in NO₃⁻. So, Nitrogen is oxidized and thus and NO₃⁻ is the reducing agent.

Calculate the molality of each of the following solutions: (a) 36.2 g of sucrose (C12H22O11) in 323 g of water, m (b) 8.63 moles of ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) in 1889 g of water.
Answer:
(a) m = 0.327 m.
(b) m = 4.57 m.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to solve this problem by firstly considering the fact that the molality is computed by dividing the moles of solute by the kilograms of solvent, in this case water; in such a way, we proceed as follows:
(a) We firstly calculate the moles of 36.2 grams of sucrose as its molar mass is 342.3 g/mol:
[tex]\frac{36.2g}{342.3g/mol} =0.106mol[/tex]
Next, the kilograms of water in this case are 0.323 kg so that the molality will be:
[tex]m=\frac{0.106mol}{0.323kg}\\\\m=0.327m[/tex]
(b) In this case, we directly realize that the kilograms of water are now 1.889 kg so that the molality will be:
[tex]m=\frac{8.63mol}{1.889kg}=4.57m[/tex]
Clearly, the both of them in molal, m, units.
Regards!

When (R)-2-chloro-3-methylbutane is treated with potassium tert-butoxide, a monosubstituted alkene is obtained. When this alkene is treated with HBr, a mixture of products is obtained. Identify all of the expected products.
Answer:
See explanation and image attached
Explanation:
The reaction of (R)-2-chloro-3-methylbutane with potassium tert-butoxide yields a monosubstituted alkene .
Since the base is bulky, the Hoffman product predominates because attack occurs at the less hindered carbon atom to yield the major product as shown.
The alkene reacts with HBr at the secondary carbon atom to yield a carbocation intermediate which is flat and planar. Attack on either face of the carbocation yields a racemic mixture of the (2R) and (2S) products.
Rearrangement of the carbocation to yield a tertiary carbocation gives the 2-bromo-2-methyl butane product as shown in the image attached.
4. A sample of ammonia, NH3, contains 3.3 x 1021 hydrogen atoms. How many NH; molecules are in this sample?
Answer:
1.1 × 10²¹ NH₃ molecules
Explanation:
From the given information:
We were being told that the number of the hydrogen (H) atoms present in the sample of NH3 = 3.3 × 10²¹ hydrogen.
However, it signifies that each molecule of ammonia harbors 3hydrogen (H) atoms.
Hence, the number of molecules of NH₃ present;
[tex]\mathsf{=\dfrac{3.3\times 10^{21}}{3} \ molecules \ of \ {NH_3}}[/tex]
= 1.1 × 10²¹ NH₃ molecules

What is the correct ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen in glucose (C6H12O6)?
12:12:6
2:1:1
1:2:1
6:6:12
Answer:
Correct ratio of carbon to hydrogen is 2:1:1
Answer:
Its actually 1:2:1
Explanation:
The molecular formula is C6H12O6 because one molecule actually contains 6 C, 12 H, and 6 O atoms. The simplest whole-number ratio of C to H to O atoms in glucose is 1:2:1, so the empirical formula is CH2O.

What mass of oxygen is needed for the complete combustion of 1.60-10^-3
g
of methane?
Express your answer with the appropriate units.
Answer:
6.4×10¯³ g of O₂.
Explanation:
We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:
CH₄ + 2O₂ —> CO₂ + 2H₂O
Next, we shall determine the masses of CH₄ and O₂ that reacted from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:
Molar mass of CH₄ = 12 + (4×1)
= 12 + 4
= 16 g/mol
Mass of CH₄ from the balanced equation = 1 × 16 = 16 g
Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol
Mass of O₂ from the balanced equation = 2 × 32 = 64 g
SUMMARY:
From the balanced equation above,
16 g of CH₄ reacted with 64 g of O₂.
Finally, we shall determine the mass of O₂ needed to react with 1.6×10¯³ g of CH₄. This can be obtained as illustrated below:
From the balanced equation above,
16 g of CH₄ reacted with 64 g of O₂.
Therefore, 1.6×10¯³ g of CH₄ will react with = (1.6×10¯³ × 64) / 16 = 6.4×10¯³ g of O₂
Thus, 6.4×10¯³ g of O₂ is needed for the reaction.
According to the ideal gas law, a 9.998 mol sample of argon gas in a 0.8311 L container at 502.7 K should exert a pressure of 496.2

gas, a = 1.345 L’atm/mol? and b = 3.219x10-2 L/mol.
Pideal – Puan der Waals |
Percent difference
x 100
Answer:
[tex]\%diff=24.0\%[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, it turns out firstly necessary for us to set up the van der Waals' equation as shown below:
[tex]p=\frac{RT}{v-b}-\frac{a}{v^2}[/tex]
Thus, we secondly calculate the molar volume as:
[tex]v=\frac{0.8311L}{9.998mol} =0.083L/mol[/tex]
Then, we plug in the entire variables in the vdW equation to get such pressure:
[tex]p=\frac{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*502.7K}{0.08313L/mol-0.03219L/mol}-\frac{1.345L*atm/mol}{(0.08313L/mol)^2}\\\\p=615.2atm[/tex]
And the ideal gas pressure:
[tex]p=\frac{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*502.7K}{0.08313L/mol}\\\\p=496.2atm[/tex]
Finally, the percent difference:
[tex]\%diff=\frac{|496.2atm-615.2atm|}{496.2atm} *100\%\\\\\%diff=24.0\%[/tex]

Select the choice that best completes the following sentence: When cooled slowly, transformations near the melting temperature tend to yield ______ grains due to the formation of ______ nucleation sites followed by ______ grain growth.
Question Completion with Options:
O coarse...few...rapid
O fine...few...slow
O fine...multiple...rapid
O coarse...few...slow
O fine...multiple...slow
Answer:
The choice that best completes the sentence is:
O coarse...few...slow
Explanation:
Transformations near the melting temperature develop coarse grains because few nucleation sites are formed and the rate of the grain growth is usually slow. This is because of the process that starts with recrystallization, recovery, and nucleation before growth can occur. While recrystallization enables the grain to increase in size at high temperature, nucleation gives the grain the energy to irreversibly grow into larger-sized nucleus.
Phosphorus-32 is radioactive and has a half life of 14.3 days. Calculate the activity of a 3.5mg sample of phosphorus-32. Give your answer in becquerels and in curies. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Answer:
The activity of P-32 is 3.7x10¹³ becquerels = 1.0x10³ curies.
Explanation:
The activity of P-32 can be calculated with the following equation:
[tex] A = \lambda N [/tex] (1)
Where:
N: is the number of atoms of P-32
λ: is the decay constant
We can find the number of atoms of P-32 as follows:
[tex] N = \frac{N_{A}*m}{M} [/tex] (2)
Where:
[tex]N_{A}[/tex]: is the Avogadro's number = 6.022x10²³ atoms/mol
m: is the mass of P-32 = 3.5x10⁻³ g
M: is the molar mass of the radionuclide (P-32) = 32 g/mol
Now, the decay constant is given by:
[tex] \lambda = \frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}} [/tex] (3)
Where:
[tex]{t_{1/2}} [/tex]: is the half-life of P-32 = 14.3 days
Finally, we can find the activity of P-32 by entering equations (2) and (3) into (1):
[tex] A = \lambda N = \frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}*\frac{N_{A}*m}{M} = \frac{ln(2)}{14.3 d*\frac{24 h}{1 d}*\frac{3600 s}{1 h}}*\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} mol^{-1}*3.5 \cdot 10^{-3} g}{32 g/mol} = 3.7 \cdot 10^{13} dis/s [/tex]
Since a becquerel (Bq) is defined as a disintegration (dis) per second, the activity in Bq is:
[tex] A = 3.7 \cdot 10^{13} Bq [/tex]
And, since a Curie (Ci) is 3.7x10¹⁰ Bq, the activity in Ci is:
[tex] A = 3.7 \cdot 10^{13} Bq*\frac{1 Ci}{3.7 \cdot 10^{10} Bq} = 1.0 \cdot 10^{3} Ci [/tex]
Therefore, the activity of P-32 is 3.7x10¹³ becquerels = 1.0x10³ curies.
I hope it helps you!

Thus, the ground-state electron configuration of a neutral atom of titanium is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s²3d².
How many moles of iron is equivalent to 4.45 x 10^22 atoms of iron
Answer:
0.074 moles
Explanation:
For every mole (of any element), there are 6.022 x 10^23 atoms.
There are 4.45 x 10^22 atoms of iron.
To find the moles we divide the number of atoms by Avogadro's number
4.45 x 10^22 / 6.022 x 10^23 = 0.0738957
Don't forget sig figs
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.0739 \ mol \ Fe}}[/tex]
Explanation:
We are asked to convert a number of iron atoms to moles of iron.
We will use Avogadro's Number for this, which is 6.022 × 10²³. This is the number of particles (atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. For this problem, the particles are atoms of iron. There are 6.022 ×10²³ atoms of iron in 1 mole of iron.
We will also use dimensional analysis to solve this problem. To do this, we use ratios. Set up a ratio using the underlined information.
[tex]\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Fe} {1 \ mol \ Fe}[/tex]
Since we are converting 4.45 × 10²² atoms of iron to moles, we multiply the ratio by that value.
[tex]4.45 \ \times 10^{22} \ atoms \ Fe *\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Fe} {1 \ mol \ Fe}[/tex]
Flip the ratio. The value is the same, but it allows us to cancel the units of atoms of iron.
[tex]4.45 \ \times 10^{22} \ atoms \ Fe *\frac {1 \ mol \ Fe}{6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Fe}[/tex]
[tex]4.45 \ \times 10^{22} *\frac {1 \ mol \ Fe}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}[/tex]
Condense into 1 fraction.
[tex]\frac {4.45 \ \times 10^{22} }{6.022 \times 10^{23}} \ mol \ Fe[/tex]
[tex]0.07389571571 \ mol \ Fe[/tex]
The original measurement of atoms ( 4.45 × 10²²) has 3 significaint figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the ten-thousandths place. The 9 to the right of this place (0.07389571571) tells us to round the 8 up to a 9.
[tex]0.0739 \ mol \ Fe[/tex]
There are approximately 0.0739 moles of iron in 4.45 × 10²² atoms of iron.

What is the pressure in a 19.1 L cylinder filled with 0.684 mol of nitrogen gas at a temperature of 326 K ?
Answer:
The hydrogen sample has a pressure of 0.957 atmospheres.
Explanation:
Let consider that the hydrogen sample behaves ideally, the equation of state for ideal gases is:
[tex]P\cdot V = n\cdot R_{u}\cdot T[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]P[/tex] - Pressure, in atmospheres.
[tex]V[/tex] - Volume, in liters.
[tex]n[/tex] - Molar quantity, in moles.
[tex]T[/tex] - Temperature, in Kelvin.
[tex]R_{u}[/tex] - Ideal gas constant, in atmosphere-liters per mole-Kelvin.
If we know that [tex]V = 19.1\,L[/tex], [tex]n = 0.684\,mol[/tex], [tex]T = 326\,K[/tex] and [tex]R_{u} = 0.082\,\frac{atm\cdot L}{mol\cdot K}[/tex], then the pressure of the hydrogen sample is:
[tex]P = \frac{n\cdot R_{u}\cdot T}{V}[/tex]
[tex]P = \frac{(0.684\,mol)\cdot \left(0.082\,\frac{atm\cdot L}{mol\cdot K} \right)\cdot (326\,K)}{19.1\,L}[/tex]
[tex]P = 0.957\,atm[/tex]
The hydrogen sample has a pressure of 0.957 atmospheres.

Consider the reaction below to answer the following questions (4) a. The nucleophile in the reaction is _______ b. The Lewis acid catalyst in the reaction is ______ c. This reaction proceeds___________(faster or slower)
The question is incomplete, the complete question is shown in the image attached to this answer.
Answer:
a) Br^-
b) FeCl3
c) slower
d) see the first attached image
Explanation:
Aromatic compounds undergo electrophilic substitution sections in the presence of the appropriate electrophile.
In the reaction above, the Br^- nucleophile attacks the Lewis acid FeCl3. Recall that the nitro group is meta directing hence the incoming Br^+ electrophile is directed towards the meta position as shown in the image attached.
Note that the nitro group deactivates the ring towards electrophilic substitution hence the reaction is slower with nitrobenzene than with unsubstituted benzene.
HBr can be added to an alkene in the presence of peroxides (ROOR). What function does the peroxide serve in this reaction
Answer:
Radical chain initiator
Explanation:
The peroxide here serves as a radical chain initiator. In the field of chemistry the radical initiatives are those substances that are used in industrial processes like polymer synthesis. These initiatives have weak bonds generally and they're mostly used to create free radicals. These radicals are atoms that have odd numbers of electrons. Peroxide is an example of such.
