CxHy + O2 --> x CO2 + y/2 H2O
Find the moles of CO2 : 18.9g / 44 g/mol = .430 mol CO2 = .430 mol of C in compound
Find the moles of H2O: 5.79g / 18 g/mol = .322 mol H2O = .166 mol of H in compound
Find the mass of C and H in the compound:
.430mol x 12 = 5.16 g C
.166mol x 1g = .166g H
When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.
Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).
In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).
Answer: Some atoms of the same elements that have different atomic masses are called isotopes
Explanation:
so the atoms are the same element but different in mass. Since the isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons the isotopes have much the same chemical behavior. Since the isotopes have different numbers of neutrons the nuclear behavior differs.
Answer:
Explanation:
Hello.
In this case, for the equation:
For isolating a, we must first pass (d-e) to divide at the other side as it is initially multiplying:
Next, as b/c is adding, it passes to subtract at the other side in order to finally isolate a:
Best regards!
Answer:
Explanation:
The new product is a compound which is a product of combination of two reactants. This form of reaction is called Synthesis or combination. It involves the formation of compounds from the union of constituent elements in a reaction.
A compound is composed of two or more kinds of elements that are joined together in a definite grouping.
Answer:
1.17 L of H₂
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 2.3 g of Mg. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass of Mg = 2.3 g
Molar mass of Mg = 24 g/mol
Mole of Mg =?
Mole = mass /molar mass
Mole of Mg = 2.3 / 24
Mole of Mg = 0.096 mole
Next, we shall determine the number of mole of H₂ produced by the reaction of 2.3 g (i.e 0.096 mole) of Mg. This can be obtained as follow:
Mg + 2HCl —> MgCl₂ + H₂
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of Mg reacted to 1 mole of H₂.
Therefore, 0.096 mole of Mg will also react to produce 0.096 mole of H₂.
Finally, we shall determine volume of H₂ produced from the reaction. This can be obtained as follow:
Number of mole (n) of H₂ = 0.096 mole
Pressure (P) = 2 atm
Temperature (T) = 298 K
Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol
Volume (V) of H₂ =?
PV = nRT
2 × V = 0.096 × 0.0821 × 298
Divide both side by 2
V = (0.096 × 0.0821 × 298) /2
V = 1.17 L
Therefore, 1.17 L of H₂ were obtained from the reaction.
