Classify the solute represented in each of the following equations as a strong, weak, or nonelectrolyte:

a.CH4O(l)⟶H2OCH4O(aq)

b.MgCl2(s)⟶H2OMg2+(aq)+2Cl-(aq)

c.HClO(aq)⇄H2OH+(aq)+ClO-(aq)

Short Answer

Expert verified

(part a) The following equation,

CH4O(l)⟶H2OCH4O(aq)is a nonelectrolyte.

(part b) The following equation,

MgCl2(s)⟶H2OMg2+(aq)+2Cl-(aq)is a strong electrolyte.

(part c) The following equation,

HClO(aq)⇄H2OH+(aq)+ClO-(aq)is a weak electrolyte.

Step by step solution

01

Introduction (part a).

Strong electrolyte: A material that freely ionized particles entirely or nearly wholly once subsumed or melted and is an excellent electrical conductor.

Weak electrolyte: A substance that slowly and incompetently oxidizes once submerged or begins to melt and conducts less electricity.

Nonelectrolyte: A substance that, when disintegrated or melted, doesn't really polarize but does not conduct electricity.

02

Given Information (part a). 

CH4O(l)⟶H2OCH4O(aq)

03

Explanation (part a). 

When hydrated, CH4Odoes not ionize. As a necessary consequence, it is a nonelectrolyte.

04

Given Information (part b).

MgCl2(s)⟶H2OMg2+(aq)+2Cl-(aq)

05

Explanation (part b).

MgCl2completely ionized particles in water, forming Mg2+andCl-ions. As more than just a result, it is a strong electrolyte.

06

Given Information (part c).

HClO(aq)⇄H2OH+(aq)+ClO-(aq)

07

Explanation (part c).

Incomplete ionization of HClOresults in the formation of H+andCl-ions.

Hence, it is a weak electrolyte.

Tamiflu (oseltamivir), C16H28N2O4 is an antiviral drug used to treat influenza. The preparation of Tamiflu begins with the extraction of shikimic acid from the seedpods of star anise. From 2.6g of star anise, 0.13g of shikimic acid can be obtained and used to produce one capsule containing 75mg of Tamiflu. The usual adult dosage for treatment of influenza is two capsules of Tamiflu daily for 5 days.

a. If black spheres are carbon atoms, white spheres are hydrogen atoms, and red spheres are oxygen atoms, what is the formula of shikimic acid?

b. What is the molar mass of shikimic acid?

c. How many moles of shikimic acid are contained in 130g of shikimic acid?

d. How many capsules containing 75mg of Tamiflu could be produced from 155g of star anise?

e. What is the molar mass of Tamiflu?

f. How many kilograms of Tamiflu would be needed to treat all the people in a city with a population of 500000 if each person consumes two Tamiflu capsules a day for 5 days?
