Chemical formulas mole basis

Die chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6, which on a C-mole basis is CHjO. The formula for ethanol is C2H5OH or CHsOq.s- Therefore, the set of algebraic equations to be solved is... 

In the language of linear algebra, N and b define vector spaces, and the dimension of a vector space corresponds to the number of linearly independent vectors, called basis vectors, that are needed to define the space. Then the multiplication in (7.4.2) can be interpreted as a transformation in which A maps a certain subspace of N into a subspace of b. In other words, only certain sets of mole numbers satisfy the elemental balances (7.4.2), and the possible sets of mole numbers depend on the chemical formulae for the species present in the system. That subspace of b, which is accessible to some N, is called the range of A the dimension of the range equals rank(A). According to (7.4.2), any basis vectors for the range automatically satisfy the elemental balances. For example, if we let N represent one particular basis vector for the range, then... 

Percent composition establishes the relative proportions of the elements in a compound on a mass basis. A chemical formula requires these proportions to be on a mole basis, that is, in terms of numbers of atoms. Consider the following five-step approach to determining a formula from the experimentally determined percent composition of the compound 2-deoxyribose, a sugar that is a basic constituent of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). The mass percent composition of 2-deoxyribose is 44.77% C, 7.52% H, and 47.71% O. 

Nitrous acid can substitute the more reactive aromatic derivatives by attack of NOeon the ring and form Ar—N=0 compounds. A product obtained from benzenol by this kind of reaction has the formula C6H502N. Exactly the same substance is formed from treatment of one mole of 1,4-benzenedione with one mole of azanol (hydroxylamine Section 16-4C). On the basis of the reactions by which it is formed, write two likely structures for this substance and explain how you would decide which one was correct on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic tests. 

Chemical reactions change only forms of existence of basis components in compliance with conditions of mass conservation law. Proportions, which equate moles of the components before and after reactions, are called stoichiometric coefficients or simply reaction coefficients. In reaction equations these coefficients are inserted before formulae of the compounds themselves. For instance, the silicon, when solved in water, forms orthosilicic acid, which with increase in pH loses oxygen. For this reason the entire reaction of dissolving SiO may be expressed by the equation... 

Pleurotin. This compound (142a) has the empirical formula, C20H22O5, m.p. 209°C. (dec.), yellow or amber needles, [o ]n = —20° in chloroform, absorption peak at 2500 A very soluble in chloroform soluble in alcohol, acetone, ether, and benzene nearly insoluble in water and petroleum ether gives no color with ferric chloride, releases iodine from hydrogen iodide. It reacts with potassium cyanide to give a blue color, which is the basis of a chemical method of assay (101a). One mole of pleurotin reacts...
