Combustion analysis of a 13.42-g sample of the unknown organic compound (which contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen) produ

kirza4 [7]

Answer: The molecular formula for the given organic compound is $C_{18}H_{20}O_2$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=39.61g$

Mass of $H_2O=9.01g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 39.61 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 39.61=10.80g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 9.01 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 9.01=1.00g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (13.42) - (10.80 + 1.00) = 1.62 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{10.80g}{12g/mole}=0.9moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{1g}{1g/mole}=1moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{1.62g}{16g/mole}=0.10moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.10 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.9}{0.10}=9$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{1}{0.10}=10$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.10}{0.10}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 9 : 10 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_9H_{10}O$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

$n=\frac{\text{Molecular mass}}{\text{Empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 268.34 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 134 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{268.34g/mol}{134g/mol}=2$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(9\times 2)}H_{(10\times 2)}O_{(1\times 2)}=C_{18}H_{20}O_2$

Thus, the molecular formula for the given organic compound is $C_{18}H_{20}O_2$ .

At which type of tectonic plate boundary is a volcano least likely to occur?

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

A divergent boundary is when the plates move apart from each other. When the plates part, magma from under either plate rises and forms a volcano. A hotspot is the third place a volcano can form. This particular type is the least common.

What is the Molar Mass of methylammonium bromide: Use the Periodic Table and round to the nearest hundredths.

egoroff_w [7]

The molar mass of methylammonium bromide is 111u.

<h3>What is molar mass?</h3>

The molar mass is defined as the mass per unit amount of substance of a given chemical entity.

Multiply the atomic weight (from the periodic table) of each element by the number of atoms of that element present in the compound.

Add it all together and put units of grams/mole after the number.

Atomic weight of H is 1u

Atomic weight of N is 14u

Atomic weight of C is 12u

Atomic weight of Br is 79u

Calculating molar mass of $2H_3NCH_3Br$ =2(1 x3+ 14+12+ 1 x 3 +79) = 111u

Hence, the molar mass of methylammonium bromide is 111u.
