What is the simplest method of determining the composition of a compound?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kaheart [24]1 year ago
8 0

Answer:

Chemical formulas tell you how many atoms of each element are in a compound, and <u>empirical formulas</u> tell you the simplest or most reduced ratio of elements in a compound. If a compound's chemical formula cannot be reduced anymore, then the empirical formula is the same as the chemical formula.

What volume (in L) will a 32 g sample of butane gas, C4H10(g), occupy at a temperature of 45.0 oC and a pressure of 728 mm Hg?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

15.0 L

Explanation:

To find the volume, you need to use the Ideal Gas Law:

PV = nRT

In this equation,

-----> P = pressure (mmHg)

-----> V = volume (L)

-----> n = moles

-----> R = Ideal Gas constant (62.36 L*mmHg/mol*K)

-----> T = temperature (K)

To calculate the volume, you need to (1) convert grams C₄H₁₀ to moles (via the molar mass), then (2) convert the temperature from Celsius to Kelvin, and then (3) calculate the volume (via the Ideal Gas Law).

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 4(12.011 g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (C₄H₁₀): 58.124 g/mol

32 grams C₄H₁₀              1 moles
-------------------------  x  -----------------------  = 0.551 moles C₄H₁₀
                                    58.124 grams

P = 728 mmHg                      R = 62.36 L*mmHg/mol*K

V = ? L                                    T = 45.0 °C + 273.15 = 318.15 K

n = 0.551 moles

PV = nRT

(728 mmHg)V = (0.551 moles)(62.36 L*mmHg/mol*K)(318.15 K)

(728 mmHg)V = 10922.7632

V = 15.0 L

Water is known as the universal solvent. One reason water makes a good solvent is because it is composed of polar molecules. Wha
Flauer [41]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Its molecular formula is H_{2}O.

It is known that hydrogen is electropositive in nature whereas oxygen is electronegative in nature. Therefore, oxygen will pull the electron of hydrogen towards itself as a result, there will be formation of partial positive charge on hydrogen and partial negative charge on oxygen atom.

Thus, the water molecule becomes polar. So, we can conclude that water molecule is a polar molecule because water molecules have a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on  the other.

2 characteristics and 2 differences for spiral and elliptical galaxies
Lerok [7]
Spiral galaxies have three main components: a bulge, disk, and halo (see right). The bulge is a spherical structure found in the center of the galaxy. This feature mostly contains older stars. The disk is made up of dust, gas, and younger stars. The disk forms arm structures. Our Sun is located in an arm of our galaxy, the Milky Way. The halo of a galaxy is a loose, spherical structure located around the bulge and some of the disk. The halo contains old clusters of stars, known as globular clusters<span>.

Elliptical galaxies are shaped like a spheriod, or elongated sphere. In the sky, where we can only see two of their three dimensions, these galaxies look like elliptical, or oval, shaped disks. The light is smooth, with the surface brightness decreasing as you go farther out from the center. Elliptical galaxies are given a classification that corresponds to their elongation from a perfect circle, otherwise known as their ellipticity. The larger the number, the more elliptical the galaxy is. So, for example a galaxy of classification of E0 appears to be perfectly circular, while a classification of E7 is very flattened. The elliptical scale varies from E0 to E7. Elliptical galaxies have no particular axis of rotation.

In an area in which electricity costs 8 cents/kilowatt-hour, a 5 kW clothes dryer runs for 90 minutes to dry a load of laundry.
Orlov [11]
90 minutes is 1.5 hours.

5 kW * 1.5 hours = 7.5 kWh

8c/kWh * 7.5 kWh = 60 cents
