Carbon tetrachloride has a chlorine - to- carbon mass ratio of 11.8:1. If a simple of carbon tetrachloride contains 35 g of chlorine what mass of carbon does it contain?
a. 0.34 g c
b.1.0 g c
c. 3.0 g c
d. 11.8 g c

Interpretation: Mass of carbon present in a sample of carbon tetrachloride which contains
Concept Introduction:
The elements in a chemical reaction combine in a mixed ratio to form the compound.
According to law of constant composition, all the samples of the given compound have same proportions of their constituent elements. The mass ratio of chlorine-to-carbon is:
Answer to Problem 1SAQ
Correct Answer: option c is the correct answer.
Explanation of Solution
Reason for correct option:
The mass ratio of chlorine-to-carbon is
Substitute
Rearrange the above expression as follows:
The mass of carbon is
Reasons for incorrect options:
Option (a) is incorrect because according to the above calculation, the mass of carbon
Option (b) is incorrect because the mass of carbon
Option (d) is incorrect because according to the above calculation, the mass of carbon
Hence, options (a), (b), and (d) are incorrect.

- If 169.7 g of NaOH (40.0 g/mol) were used to prepare 3411.0 mL of solution, what would the concentration be? Group of answer choicesarrow_forwardThe mass of 3.6 mol of some element is 576 g. What is the element?arrow_forwardI have a question about this problem involving mechanisms and drawing curved arrows for acids and bases. I know we need to identify the nucleophile and electrophile, but are there different types of reactions? For instance, what about Grignard reagents and other types that I might not be familiar with? Can you help me with this? I want to identify the names of the mechanisms for problems 1-14, such as Gilman reagents and others. Are they all the same? Also, could you rewrite it so I can better understand? The handwriting is pretty cluttered. Additionally, I need to label the nucleophile and electrophile, but my main concern is whether those reactions differ, like the "Brønsted-Lowry acid-base mechanism, Lewis acid-base mechanism, acid-catalyzed mechanisms, acid-catalyzed reactions, base-catalyzed reactions, nucleophilic substitution mechanisms (SN1 and SN2), elimination reactions (E1 and E2), organometallic mechanisms, and so forth."arrow_forward
