A compound is made up of 80.0 % C and 20.0 % H. Its molar mass is 30.0 g. What is its molecular formula?

a. C2H6

b. CH

c. C4H12

d. CH3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Molecular formula = C₂H₆

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of hydrogen = 20.0 %

Percentage of carbon = 80.0 %

Molar mass = 30.0 g  

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of H = 20 / 1.01 = 19.8  

Number of gram atoms of C = 80 /12 = 6.7

Atomic ratio:

            C              :           H            

         6.7/6.7        :        19.8/6.7  

            1               :           3        

C : H = 1 : 3

Empirical formula is CH₃.

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

Empirical formula = CH₃ = 12×1 +3×1.01 = 15.03 g/mol

n = 30 g/mol / 15.03 g/mol

n = 2

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 2 (CH₃)

Molecular formula = C₂H₆

13. a. Why are the units used to express the densi-
ties of gases different from those used to
express the densities of solids or liquids?

Answers

Answer with Explanation:

The units used to express the densities of gases are different from those of solids and liquids because the particles in gas are widely separated from each other, unlike the particles in solid and liquid which are almost the same. The particles in solid are very close together. Considering it melts (if it's an ice), it will turn into a liquid and the change in volume is slightly greater only. However, if the liquid evaporates and transitions into a gas, the volume becomes largely different from its solid and liquid state. This is because the particles are much farther apart and free to move.

[Given]   32 g CH₄

Step 2: Identify Conversions

[RxN] 1 mol CH₄ → 2 mol O₂

Molar Mass of C - 12.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of CH₄ - 12.01 + 4(1.01) = 16.05 g/mol

Step 3: Stoichiometry

Set up conversion:                    [tex]\displaystyle 32 \ g \ CH_4(\frac{1 \ mol \ CH_4}{16.05 \ g \ CH_4})(\frac{2 \ mol \ O_2}{1 \ mol \ CH_4})[/tex]Divide/Multiply:                          [tex]\displaystyle 3.98754 \ mol \ O_2[/tex]

b. 1.55x10^3 moles

c. 1.55x10^2 moles

d. 1.55 moles

Answers

Answer:

1.55×10⁻² moles of sodium

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of sodium = 9.34×10²¹ atoms

Number of moles of sodium = ?

Solution:

Avogadro number:  

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.  The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

9.34×10²¹ atoms × 1 mol / 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

1.55×10⁻² mol

A homogenous mixture is a mixture in which its constituents exists in just one phase.

A heterogeneous mixture is one whose constituents exists in at least two different phases.

S₈ is a compound

CH₄ is a compound

Salt water is a homogenous mixture

Distilled water is a compound

How many liters of O2 at STP will react with 8.7 grams of C2H4 to form CO2 and H2O?

C2H4 + 3 O2 -------> 2 CO2 + 2 H2O
Pls help
answers can be
21
22
2.3

Answers

The volume of O₂ : 21 L

Further explanation

Given

8.7 grams of C₂H₄

Required

Volume O₂

Solution

Reaction

C₂H₄ + 3 O₂ ⇒ 2 CO₂ + 2 H₂O

mol C₂H₄(MW= 28 g/mol) :

= mass : MW

= 8.7 g : 28 g/mol

= 0.311

From the equation, mol  O₂ :

= 3/1 x mol C₂H₄

= 3/1 x 0.311

= 0.933

At STP, 1 mol gas=22.4 L, so for 0.933 mol :

= 0.933 x 22.4 L

= 20.899 L ≈ 21 L

What is the theoretical yield of Ca(OH)2, in grams, if 31.8 g of CaO is hydrolyzed (reacted) in an excess of water?

Answers

The theoretical yield of Ca(OH)₂ : 42.032 g

Further explanation

Given

31.8 g of CaO

Required

The theoretical yield of Ca(OH)₂

Solution

Reaction

CaO + H₂O⇒Ca(OH)₂

mol CaO (MW=56 g/mol) :

= mass : MW

= 31.8 g : 56 g/mol

= 0.568

From equation, mol Ca(OH)₂ = mol CaO = 0.568

Mass Ca(OH)₂ (MW=74 g/mol) :

= 0.568 x 74

= 42.032 g
