(a)
Interpretation:
A chemical equation is given. It has to be balanced and interpreted in terms of particles, moles and mass and obeying of law of conservation of mass in it has to be shown.
Concept introduction:
According to law of conservation of mass it is not possible to form the mass or to destroy the mass. The mass always remains conserved.
The number of moles is calculated as shown below.

Answer to Problem 2PP
In the given equation shows that two molecules of sodium reacts with two molecules of water to form two molecules of sodium hydroxide and one molecule of hydrogen gas. In terms of number of moles it is seen that two moles of sodium reacts with two moles of water gas to form two moles of sodium hydroxide and one mole of hydrogen gas. Here,
The law of conservation of mass is obeyed by the given chemical equation.
Explanation of Solution
The given chemical equation is shown below.
The coefficient of two is multiplied with sodium, water and sodium hydroxide to balance the chemical equation.
The above equation shows that two molecules of sodium reacts with two molecules of water to form two molecules of sodium hydroxide and one molecule of hydrogen gas. In terms of number of moles it is seen that two moles of sodium reacts with two moles of water gas to form two moles of sodium hydroxide and one mole of hydrogen gas.
The molar mass of sodium is
The molar mass of water is
The molar mass of sodium hydroxide is
The molar mass of hydrogen is
Thus,
Total mass of reactants and products is given as shown below.
Here, the mass of reactants is equal to mass of the products. Thus, law of conservation of mass is obeyed.

Answer to Problem 2PP
In the given equation shows that four molecules of zinc reacts with ten molecules of nitric acid to form four molecules of zinc nitrate, one molecule of nitrous oxide and five molecules of water. In terms of number of moles it is seen that four moles of zinc reacts with ten moles of nitric acid to form four moles of zinc nitrate, one mole of nitrous oxide and five moles of water. Here,
The law of conservation of mass is obeyed by the given chemical equation.
Explanation of Solution
The given chemical equation is shown below.
The coefficient of four is multiplied with zinc, ten with nitric acid, four with zinc nitrate and five with water to balance the given chemical equation.

I have to show, with ARROWS and STRUCTURES, the mechanism of the reaction at the bottom. Also I have to show by mecanism why the reaction wouldn't work if the alcohol was primary. I also tried to draw the mechanism, tell me what to change. Please note that its an AMIDE thats formed not an AMINE the nitrogen has ONE hydrogen and one Phenyl-C-Phenyl. I already asked for this mechanism and got as a final product ...-NH2 not whats shown on the picture, thank you Ths second part. QUESTION 3.

Why is there the difference in separation time for SFC versus HPLC? Hint, use the Van Deemter plot as a guide in answering this question. Why, fundamentally, would you expect a faster separation for SFC than HPLC, in general?arrow_forwardA certain inorganic cation has an electrophoretic mobility of 5.27 x 10-4 cm2s-1V-1. The same ion has a diffusion coefficient of 9.5 x 10-6cm2s-1. If this ion is separated from cations by CZE with a 75cm capillary, what is the expected plate count, N, at an applied voltage of 15.0kV? Under these separation conditions, the electroosmotic flow rate was 0.85mm s-1 toward the cathode. If the detector was 50.0cm from the injection end of the capillary, how long would it take in minutes for the analyte cation to reach the detector after the field was applied?arrow_forward
- 2.arrow_forwardPlease solve for the following Electrochemistry that occursarrow_forwardCommercial bleach contains either chlorine or oxygen as an active ingredient. A commercial oxygenated bleach is much safer to handle and less likely to ruin your clothes. It is possible to determine the amount of active ingredient in an oxygenated bleach product by performing a redox titration. The balance reaction for such a titration is: 6H+ +5H2O2 +2MnO4- à 5O2 + 2Mn2+ + 8H2O If you performed the following procedure: “First, dilute the Seventh Generation Non-Chlorine Bleach by pipetting 10 mL of bleach in a 100 mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with distilled water. Next, pipet 10 mL of the diluted bleach solution into a 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask and add 20 mL of 1.0 M H2SO4 to the flask. This solution should be titrated with 0.0100 M KMnO4 solution.” It took 18.47mL of the KMnO4 to reach the endpoint on average. What was the concentration of H2O2 in the original bleach solution in weight % assuming the density of bleach is 1g/mL?arrow_forward
