In an organic chemistery laboratory a scientist subjecteda hydrocarbon to combustion The products occupied a volume ratio of 4:3 under the same conditions of temperature and pressure .The scientist drew the possible structures of the hydrocarbon. She then subjected the compound to ozonolysis to identify the exact structure. Predict the products formed when the compound is treated with bro-mine water.

Answer»

Solution :GENERAL combustion equation is
`C_xH_y+(x+y/4)O_2rarrxx.CO_2+y/2H_2C` As the molar RATIO of `CO_2` and `H_2O` is 4:3
x=4 and `y/2=3rArry=6`
`thereforeX=C_4H_6`

Since it reacts With bromine water and its formula INDICATES that X is butyne
`therefore` X may be 1-Butyne or 2- Butyne

In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g of water and 8.2 g of sodium ethanoate. Show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass. underset("carbonate")("Sodium") + underset("acid")("Ethanoic") to underset("ethanoate")("Sodium")+ "Water" +underset("dioxide")("Carbon")

Answer»

Solution :`UNDERSET("CARBONATE")("SODIUM") + underset("ACID")("Ethanoic") to underset("ethanoate")("Sodium")+ "Water" +underset("dioxide")("Carbon")`
`5.3 g + 6 g to 8.2 g+0.9 g + 2.2 g`
`11.3 g to 11.3 g`
i.e., L.H.S. = R.H.S.
`:.` mass of reactants = mass of product
This shows that the observations are in agreement with the LAW of conservation of mass.

In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of acetic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium acetate. Show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass. sodium carbonate + acetic acid→sodium acetate + carbon dioxide + water

Answer»

Solution :The chemical reaction LEADING to PRODUCTS is
`"SODIUM carbonate"+"ethanoic acid" to "sodium ethanoate"+"carbon dioxide"+" water"`.
`"MASS of reactants" = (5:3+60)=11:3 g`
`"Mass of products"= (8:2 + 2:2 +0.9) 11:3g`.
The reactants and products have same mass. This means that there was no loss of mass during the reaction. Therefore, the data is in AGREEMENT with law of conservation of mass
1422.

In a reaction 5.3g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6g of ethanoic acid. The products where 2.2g of CO., 0.9g water and 8.2g of sodium ethanoate show that these observations are in agrrengment with the law of conservation of mass. Sodium carbonate+ ethanoic acid Sodium ethanoate + carbondioxide + water

Answer»

Solution :Sodium CARBONATE + ethanoic ACID `to` Sodium ethanoate + carbon DIOXIDE + water
REACTION [Mass of Reactant]
`5.3 + 6.0 = 11.3` gm
Mass of PRODUCTS`2.2 + 0.9 + 8.2 = 11.3 ` gm
`therefore` Mass of Reactants = Mass of products

In achemistry lab, Rina took some mercury and water in two test tubes separately. Then she drained off both the liquids and on observing the emty test tubes, found some difference. Can you guess what the difference is ? Explainwith appropriatereasons.

Answer»

Solution :Water droplets are found on the INNER surface of one test tube while the other test tube is completely dry. In the CASE of water, ADHESIVE forces are more than cohesive forces but in case of mercury cohesive forcesare more than ahesive forces. Due to stronger adhesive force, water droplets STICK to the test tube.

In a certain reaction 2A + B hArr 4C, the concentration of A decreases from 5 xx 10^(-3) " mol"//L to 2 xx10^(-3) " mol"//L in 30 s. What is the rate with respect to C ?

Answer»

`5XX10^(-5) " mole " L^(-1)s^(-1)`
`5xx10^(-5) L^(-1) " mole"^(-1) s^(-1)`
`21 xx10^(-4) " mole" L^(-1)s^(-1)`
`2 xx 10^(-4) L^(-1) " mole"^(-1) s^(-1)`

Solution :The rate of reaction with respect to
`A=("Change in concentration")/("TIME")`
`(d[A])/(dt)=(5xx10^(-3)-2xx10^(-3))/(30)=(3xx10^(-3))/(30)`
`=1xx10^(-4) " mol" // "lit's`
reaction is `2A+B to 4C`
`(1)/(2)(d[A])/(dt)=(1)/(4)(d[C])/(dt)`
The rate of reaction in terms of 'C' is
`(Delta[C])/(Delta t)=(4)/(2)xx(Delta[A])/(Delta t)`
`=2xx(d[A])/(dt)=2xx1xx10^(-4)=2xx10^(-4) " mole " // L^(-1)` .SEC

If the number of electrons in an atom is 8 and the number of protons is also 8, then (i) What is the atomic number of the atom? and (ii) What is the charge on the atom?

Answer»

SOLUTION :(i) Atomic NUMBER = number of protons = 8. (11) Number of ELECTRONS = number of protons
`therefore`the negative and positive CHARGES nullify each other.
`therefore` the charge on the atom = 0 i.e. the atom is electrically neutral.
