Zinc and magnesium metal each react with hydrochloric acid to make chloride salts of the respective metals, and hydrogen gas. A \(10.00-\mathrm{g}\) mixture of zinc and magnesium produces \(0.5171 \mathrm{~g}\) of hydrogen gas upon being mixed with an excess of hydrochloric acid. Determine the percent magnesium by mass in the original mixture.
Vitamin \(\mathrm{B}_{12}\), cyanocobalamin, is essential for human nutrition. It is concentrated in animal tissue but not in higher plants. Although nutritional requirements for the vitamin are quite low. people who abstain completely from animal products may develop a deficiency anemia. Cyanocobalamin is the form used in vitamin supplements. It contains \(4.34 \%\) cobalt by mass. Calculate the molar mass of cyanocobalamin, assuming that there is one atom of cobalt in every molecule of cyanocobalamin.
Cumene is a compound containing only carbon and hydrogen that is used in the production of acetone and phenol in the chemical industry. Combustion of \(47.6 \mathrm{mg}\) cumene produces some \(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\) and \(42.8 \mathrm{mg}\) water. The molar mass of cumene is between 115 and \(125 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}\). Determine the empirical and molecular formulas.
Maleic acid is an organic compound composed of \(41.39 \% \mathrm{C}\), \(3.47 \% \mathrm{H}\), and the rest oxygen. If \(0.129 \mathrm{~mol}\) of maleic acid has a mass of \(15.0 \mathrm{~g}\), what are the empirical and molecular formulas of maleic acid?
DDT, an insecticide harmful to fish, birds, and humans, is produced by the following reaction: $$ 2 \mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{3} \mathrm{Cl}+\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{HOCl}_{3} \longrightarrow \mathrm{C}_{14} \mathrm{H}_{4} \mathrm{Cl}_{5}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} $$ \(\begin{array}{ll}\text { orobenzenc chloral } & \mathrm{D}\end{array}\) In a government lab, \(1142 \mathrm{~g}\) of chlorobenzene is reacted with \(485 \mathrm{~g}\) of chloral. a. What mass of DDT is formed? b. Which reactant is limiting? Which is in excess? c. What mass of the excess reactant is left over? d. If the actual yield of DDT is \(200.0 \mathrm{~g}\), what is the percent yield?
