The active ingredient in Antabuse, a drug used for the treatment of chronic alcoholism, is tetraethylthiuram disulfide, (C,H5),NCSSCN(C,H5)2 (296.54 g/mol). The sulfur in a 0.4329-g sample of an Antabuse preparation was oxidized to SO,, which was absorbed in H,O, to give H,SO4. The acid was titrated with 22.13 mL of 0.03736 M base. Calculate the percentage of ac- tive ingredient in the preparation.

5. An organic compound containing only C, H, and possibly O was subjected to combustion analysis. A sample weighing 0.7585 g yielded 1.295 g CO₂ and 0.464 g H₂O. What is the empirical formula of the compound?
ABS plastic is a polymer consisting of three monomer units: acrylonitrile (C₃H₃N), butadiene (C₄H₆), and styrene (C₈H₈). A sample of ABS plastic contains 13.7% N by mass. It took 1.56 g of Br₂ to react completely with a 2.00 g sample of ABS plastic. Bromine reacts 1:1 (by moles) with the butadiene units in the polymer and nothing else, so bromination is a method for determining the quantity of butadiene in the polymer. What is the percent by mass of styrene in the polymer?
3. Zinc reacts with acids according to the following equation; Zn(s) + 2HA(aq) → Zn(A),(aq) + H,(g) The net ionic reaction is; Zn(s) + 2H,O*(aq) → Zn2*(aq) + H,(g) Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid and acetic acid is a weak acid. Based on the above information, explain the difference in the two reaction rates.

A sample of 0.5220 g of an ionic compound containing the bromide ion (Br-) is dissolved in water and treated with an excess of AgNO3. If the mass of the AgBr precipitate that forms is 0.8965 g, what is the percent by mass of Br in the original compound?
Manganese commonly occurs in nature as a mineral. The extraction of manganese from the carbonite mineral rhodochrosite. involves a two-step process. In the first step, manganese (II) carbonate and oxygen react to form manganese (IV) oxide and carbon dioxide: 2 MNCO,(s)-0,(g)→2 MnO,(s)-2 C0 (g) In the second step, manganese (IV) oxide and aluminum react to form manganese and aluminum oxide: 3 MnO, (s)- 4 Al(s)-3 Mn(s)–2 Al,O,(s) Write the net chemical equation for the production of manganese from manganese (II) carbonate, oxygen and aluminum. Be sure your equation is balanced.
Suppose that a solution prepared by dissolving 0.554 g of MgCl2 in about 30 mL of water is mixed with a solution that contains excess K2CO3 dissolved in about 30 mL of water. What is the theoretical yield (in grams) of MgCO3 in the precipitation reaction that occurs?
ABS plastic is a polymer consisting of three monomer units: acrylonitrile (C₃H₃N), butadiene (C₄H₆), and styrene (C₈H₈). A sample of ABS plastic contains 11.9% N by mass. It took 1.56 g of Br₂ to react completely with a 2.00 g sample of ABS plastic. Bromine reacts 1:1 (by moles) with the butadiene units in the polymer and nothing else, so bromination is a method for determining the quantity of butadiene in the polymer. What is the percent by mass of styrene in the polymer?
Nitric acid is often manufactured from the atmospheric gases nitrogen and oxygen, and hydrogen prepared by reforming natural gas, in a two-step process. In the first step, nitrogen and hydrogen react to form ammonia: N2(3) + 3H,(g) 2 NH, (g) In the second step, ammonia and oxygen react to form nitric acid (HNO,) and water: NH, (g) + 20,(g) - HNO, (g) + H,0 (g) Suppose the yield of the first step is 79.% and the yield of the second step is 70.%. Calculate the mass of nitrogen required to make 6.0 kg of nitric acid. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if needed, and is rounded to the correct number of significant digits.

An aqueous sample of Tc(NO3)3 is combined with an aqueous sample of Y2(CO3)8, forming a precipitate. Please predict the products, determine which product is solid and calculate how many atoms of O would be in 14.29 mole of the solid product? Note: There's no need to balance the chemical equation - just care about what the solid product is and how many atoms of O would be in 14.29 moles of the solid product. Please input your answer to the second decimal place, in scientific notation. Canvas doesn't understand the x in 1.00 x 10^4 so you'd need to input 1.00*10^4 Type your answer...
