More Moles Elements (except diatomic) the representative particle is the Atom 1 mole of Aluminum = 6.022 *1023 Atoms of Aluminum For diatomic and compounds the representative particles is the Molecules 1 mole of CO2 = 6.022 * 1023 molecules of CO2 1 mole of O2 = 6.022 * 1023 molecules of O2 Even More Moles Ionic compounds the representative particles are formula units 1 mole NaCl = 6.022 * 1023 Formula Units Whats the point of all this? No matter what kind of compound and its overall weight it contains the same number of representative particles Periodic Table: the amu is the amount of grams to make 1 mole of that substance H2O = 18 amu = 1 mole of H2O So H2O also has 18 g per 1 mole of H2O (helps when converting) Ex 5-6: I have 200 grams of Calcium Carbonate, How many moles of Calcium Carbonate do I have: What if I had 300 g of Calcium Carbonate: What if I had 50 g of Calcium Carbonate: What if I had 63.2 g of Calcium Carbonate: Calculating Moles Tips 2 ways of calculating moles Formula: Moles = Mass of a substance (grams) / formula mass of substance Dimensional analysis Ex 5-7: How many moles are in 28.7 grams of Lithium Nitrate LiNO3 = 69 g/mole By Equation: Mole = mass / mw 28.7 g / (69 g/mol) .416 mol of LiNO3 Dimensional Analysis: 28.7 g 1 Mole X .416 mol LiNO3 69 g Ex 5-8: How many Moles are in 100 g of water? Ex 5-9: How many moles of iodine are there in 200 grams of Iodine? Hint: Iodine is a Diatomic Ex 5-10: If 47.4 grams of an ionic compound are known to be 1.185 moles of that compound what is the formula mass of that compound? Ex 5-11: If 256 grams of a pure monatomic element are known to be 8.26 moles of that element what element are we talking about? Ex: 5-12: How many grams of water are in 1.34 moles of water? Avogadro’s Number Problems: Avogadro’s Number ( 6.022 * 1023) Represents particles in 1 mole of a substance non-diatomic element have 6.022 * 1023 atoms in 1 mole of that same element In diatomic molecules remember they are represented with 2 moles per element “set” so it would be 6.022 * 1023 atoms in 1 mole of that same element Avogadro's Number Problems The atomic mass of 65 amu. This means that one mole of zinc weights 65 grams There are also 6.022 * 1023 atoms of zinc in 65 grams (1 mole) of zinc. Avogadro's Number Problems IF the atomic mass of water is 18 g/mole that means that there are 6.022 * 1023 molecules of water in 18 grams of it or 1 mole of it. Avogadro's Number Problems Representative particles of Elements are represented in Atoms Representative particles of molecular compounds (2+nonmetals) are molecules Representative particles of an ionic compound is called Formula units When in Doubt GO TO MOLES!!! Ex 5-13: How many atoms are present in pure iron nail which weighs 13.2 g? Ex 5-14: If there are known to be 8.24 *1026 molecules of water present, would the sample of water weigh more then a pound? 1lb = 454 g Ex 5-15: How many moles of Carbon dioxide are 24 present in 4.55 * 10 molecules of CO2?

Example 5-19: Which weighs more 6.24 * 1023 formula units of sodium bromide or 6.24 * 1024 molecules of phosphorus tribromide? Percent Composition Problems You are comparing the parts to the hole numbers Percent composition is base on mass not atoms present We are going to find the percentage BY MASS of certain elements in a compound by comparing the mass of the element to the mass of the entire compound How to find Percentage Composition 1.Write a correct formula for the compound in the question 2.Find the formula or molecular mass of the entire compound 3.Divide the total mass of the Element whose percentage you are looking for by the total mass of the entire compound 4.Multiply your result by 100 to convert to a percentage 5.Express your answer to 1 decimal place and add a % sign at the end Example 5-20: What is the COMPLETE percentage composition (by mass) of Potassium Dichromate ? Percentage of Each Element Example 5-20 What is the percentage of Calcium in Calcium Phosphide? Example 5-21: What is the percent of oxygen in barium chlorate hexahydrate? Percentage Composition % s are excellent conversion factor since it represents a comparison of units to 100 units The next problems can be worked using dimensional analysis or by finding the % of a particular element present and then multiplying it times the mass of the compound given Example 5-22: How many grams of of Calcium are present in 156.8 g of chalk? (Calcium Carbonate) Example 5-23: How many grams of pure iron can be recovered from 50 grams of iron ore which is known to contain 32% Iron (II) Nitrate? Example 5-24:Lime stone is known to be 95% calcium carbonate. How many grams of pure calcium could you expect to obtain from a piece of lime stone weighing 100 kg? Empirical Formula Problems Empirical Formula - shows the ratio of the smallest amount of atoms in a compound RATIO OF THE ATOMS PRESENT (CH2O) The Ratio tells us how many of each atom is present To solve empirical you must be given either the grams of each element present or the % of each element present How to solve Empirical Formula Problems 1.Divide either the % of each element OR the Grams of each element Given by the atomic mass of the element. Leave your answer in 4 sig figs for accuracy 2.Compare the results you got in step 1 by selecting the smallest of the results and dividing all of the results by the smallest value. You should get a result which is very close to a whole number or very close to a mix number which contains a recognizable fraction ( 1/3 = .3333) How to solve Empirical Formula Problems 3. If All results in #2 are whole number use them as subscripts and write the formula out. If all results in # 2 are not whole numbers you must multiply all the results in #2 by a number that will make all the numbers whole numbers (ex 1.5 * 2 = 3) 4.Write the metal first (if there is one) If there is a list of elements then list them in alphabetical order. Example 5-25: A compound is found to contain 10.14% lithium, 20.29% nitrogen and 69.57% oxygen. What is the empirical formula of the compound? Example 5-26 A 200 gram sample of a compound which contain only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen is found to contain: 94.74 grams of carbon, 21.05 grams of hydrogen, and 84.21 grams of Oxygen.

  • Synthesis of Methane Hydrate from Ice Powder Accelerated by Doping
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Synthesis of Methane Hydrate from Ice Powder Accelerated by Doping Ethanol into Methane Gas Received: 2 May 2019 Yen-An Chen1, Liang-Kai Chu1, Che-Kang Chu1, Ryo Ohmura2 & Li-Jen Chen 1,2 Accepted: 13 August 2019 Clathrate hydrate is considered to be a potential medium for gas storage and transportation. Slow Published: xx xx xxxx kinetics of hydrate formation is a hindrance to the commercialized process development of such applications. The kinetics of methane hydrate formation from the reaction of ice powder and methane gas doped with/without saturated ethanol vapor at constant pressure of 16.55 ± 0.20 MPa and constant temperature ranging from −15 to −1.0 °C were investigated. The methane hydrate formation can be dramatically accelerated by simply doping ethanol into methane gas with ultralow ethanol concentration (<94 ppm by mole fraction) in the gas phase. For ethanol-doped system 80.1% of ice powder were converted into methane hydrate after a reaction time of 4 h, while only 26.6% of ice powder was converted into methane hydrate after a reaction time of 24 h when pure methane gas was used. Furthermore, this trace amount of ethanol could also substantially suppress the self-preservation efect to enhance the dissociation rate of methane hydrate (operated at 1 atm and temperatures below the ice melting point). In other words, a trace amount of ethanol doped in methane gas can act as a kinetic promoter for both the methane hydrate formation and dissociation. Clathrate hydrates are ice-like nonstoichiometric crystalline compounds formed by guest molecules encapsulated in the hydrogen bonded water cages at elevated pressures and low temperatures1.

SVILEN BOBEV* AND KIMBERLY T. TAIT Manuel Lujan Jr. Neutron Scattering Center, LANSCE 12 MS H805, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, New Mexico 87545, U.S.A. ABSTRACT Kinetic studies are reported of the effect of methanol on the rate of formation of CO2- and CH4-hy- drates by means of in situ time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction. The experiments were carried out at temperatures ranging from 200 to 250 K and pressures up to 7 MPa. The samples were prepared from mixtures of ground, deuterated ice and deuterated methanol (up to 20 vol%), which were transformed in situ into CO2- or CH4-hydrates by pressurizing the systems with the corresponding gas. The observed rates of formation of hydrates are orders of magnitude higher than the rate of formation from pure deuterated ice under the same pressure and temperature conditions. Glycols and alcohols, methanol in particular, are long known as thermodynamic inhibitors of hydrate formation. Our study indicates that methanol can also act as a kinetic promoter for the formation of gas hydrates. Preliminary data suggest that the kinetics also depend strongly on concentration and the isotopic composition.

    The when and where of water in the history of the universe Karla de Souza Torres1, and Othon Cabo Winter2 1CEFET-MG, Curvelo, Brazil; E-mail: [email protected] 2UNESP, Grupo de Din^amica Orbital & Planetologia, Guaratinguet´a,Brazil E-mail: [email protected] Abstract It is undeniable that life as we know it depends on liquid water. It is difficult to imagine any biochemical machinery that does not require water. On Earth, life adapts to the most diverse environments and, once established, it is very resilient. Considering that water is a common compound in the Universe, it seems possible (maybe even likely) that one day we will find life elsewhere in the universe. In this study, we review the main aspects of water as an essential compound for life: when it appeared since the Big Bang, and where it spread throughout the diverse cosmic sites. Then, we describe the strong relation between water and life, as we know it. Keywords water; life; universe; H2O; astrobiology 1. Introduction. Why water is essential for life? It is well known that liquid water has played the essential and undeniable role in the emergence, development, and maintenance of life on Earth. Two thirds of the Earth's surface is covered by water, however fresh water is most valuable as a resource for animals and plants. Thus, sustain- ability of our planet's fresh water reserves is an important issue as population numbers increase. Water accounts for 75% of human body mass and is the major constituent of organism fluids. All these facts indicate that water is one of the most important elements for life on Earth.

  • Properties of Deuterium-Labeled Hydrates1 *This Lab Was Taken from a Lab Offered at Purdue University
    Chem242. Int. Inorg. Chem. UMass-Amherst Properties of Deuterium-Labeled Hydrates1 *This lab was taken from a lab offered at Purdue University Introduction An isotopically labeled compound contains an isotope of one or more of its component elements in higher abundance than is found in nature. Such compounds play an important role in the structural characterization of substances as well as in various mechanistic studies because the presence or location of specific types of atoms can be determined. For example, deuterium (D, the isotope of hydrogen with one proton, one neutron, and an atomic mass of 2) was used in an investigation of the mechanism of the hydrogenation of ethylene, H2C=CH2, to form ethane, CH3CH3, according to the equation: C2H4+H2 → C2H6 This reaction was shown to be more complex than previously thought. When the reaction was run with C2H4 and D2, the product of the reaction was not C2H4D2, as expected, but was a mixture of products: all seven members of the series C2HnD6-n were observed. The mixture of products could be characterized by mass spectrometry because they range in mass from 30 to 36, a consequence of the difference in mass between a normal hydrogen atom and a deuterium atom. Isotopes are also useful in assigning infrared spectra. Changing the mass of a substituent atom by replacing it with a heavier isotope shifts the stretching frequency for normal modes involving that isotope, and thus the infrared bands. Alternatively, the location, of an isotope can sometimes be followed by infrared spectroscopy. Isotopes are also useful for investigating reaction mechanisms, as changing the mass of an atom alters the rate at which it reacts.

  • The Hydrates Some Ionic Compounds Have a Number of Water Molecules
    Special Ionic Compounds – The Hydrates Some ionic compounds have a number of water molecules hanging around them. These special compounds are called HYDRATES. A hydrate name or formula has two parts – the first part is the ionic compound, the second part is the water. We separate the two parts with a giant asterisk ( *) or dot ( ·) CuSO4 * 5 H2O is named in two steps: The ionic compound is named the regular way, name the cation, name the anion. Next use your molecular prefixes (mono, di, tri etc.) in front of the word hydrate to denote the number of water molecules. Answer: copper (II) sulfate pentahydrate Coming up with the formula for magnesium sulfate heptahydrate is also done in two steps: First come up with the formula for the ionic compound the usual way, by balancing the charges on the ions. Check the prefix to find out how many water (H2O) molecules are with the ionic compound. 2+ 2- Mg with SO4 is MgSO4 and heptahydrate means seven water. Answer: MgSO4 · 7H2O Nomenclature of Acids Acids are hydrogen compounds that are dissolved in water. Technically they are molecular, but unlike molecular compounds they will conduct electricity in water. The formula of an acid is always followed by (aq) which means in aqueous solution, in other words, dissolved in water. Anything dissolved in water has (aq) after its formula. All acids will have it, but just because there is (aq) does NOT mean it is an acid. It is only an acid if it is a hydrogen compound in water. Hydrogen compounds are molecular but they don’t use prefixes and we use the hydrogen to balance out charges with an anion.

  • Ethylene Glycol Regeneration Plan: a Systematic Approach to Troubleshoot the Common Problems
    21 Journal of Chemical Engineering, IEB Vol. ChE. 27, No. 1, June 2012 Ethylene Glycol Regeneration Plan: A Systematic Approach to Troubleshoot the Common Problems Md. Emdadul Haque Jalalabad Gas Plant, Chevron Bangladesh Abstract Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG) is used primarily at low-temperature processing plant for extracting natural gas liquids. Typically a physical process plant comprises with gas dehydration system which allows for physical separation of water saturated gas by simple dew point depression and water condensation brought about by chilling from cross exchange with propane refrigerant. The resultant wet gas is prevented from freezing by injection of liquid desiccants to inhibit hydrate formation. The resulting dehydrated gas stream will have a dew point preciously equal to the saturated water volume of the gas at its coolest temperature. Mono Ethylene Glycol has been chosen as hydrate inhibitor because of its low volatility, low toxicity, low flammability, good thermodynamic behavior, and simple proven technology requirement and availability. But it has two common characteristic problems in regeneration plant that is fouling of equipment by iron carbonate, Ca+2/Mg+2 salt deposits and cross contamination of MEG and condensate contamination. MEG in condensate causes condensate specification problems, fouling of condensate stabilization equipment and contamination of wastewater streams. Condensate in MEG causes stripping effect due to condensate vaporization, lower operating temperature, higher MEG purities, and contamination of wastewater streams from MEG Regeneration system and burping of column due to condensate buildup. Another common problem is glycol losses due to carryover with dehydrated gas and which finally accumulates in pipelines and causes corrosion.
