From the combustion of octane, the formaldehyde will be formed as this equation:
C8H18 + O2 → CH2O + H2O this is the original equation but it is not a balanced equation, so let's start to balance it:
the equation to be balanced so the number of atoms on the right side of the equation sholud be equal with the number of atoms on the lef side.
-we have 8 C atoms on left side and 1 atom on the right side so we will try putting 8 CH2O on the right side instead of CH2O
C8H18 + O2 → 8 CH2O + H2O
we have 2 O atoms on the left side and 9 atoms on the right side so we will try first to put 9 O2 instead of O2 on the left side and put 2H2O on the right side and put 16 CH2O instead of 8 CH2O to make the atoms of O are equal on both sides = 18 atoms
C8H18 + 9 O2 → 16 CH2O + 2H2O
put now we have 8 atom C on the left side and 16 atom on the right side so, we will put 2 C8H18 instead of C8H18 now we get this equation:
2C8H18 + 9O2 →16 CH2O + 2H2O
-now we have 36 of H atoms on both sides.
- and 16 of C atoms on both sides.
- and 18 of O atoms on both sides.
now all the number of atoms of O & C & H are equal on both sides
∴ 2C8H18 + 9O2 → 16 CH2O + 2 H2O
is the final balanced equation for the formation of formaldehayde
Answer:
The answer to your question is empirical formula Al₃O₉S
Explanation:
Data
Al = 31.5 %
O = 56.1 %
S = 12.4 %
Process
1.- Look for the atomic masses of the elements
Al = 27 g
O = 16
S = 32
2.- Represent the percentages as grams
Al = 31.5 g
O = 56.1 g
S = 12.4 g
3.- Convert these masses to moles
27 g of Al ----------------- 1 mol
31.5 g ---------------------- x
x = 1.17 moles
16 g of O ---------------- 1 mol
56.1 g of O ------------- x
x = 3.5 mol
32 g of S --------------- 1 mol
12.4 g of S ------------- x
x = 0.39 moles
4.- Divide by the lowest number of moles
Al = 1.17 / 0.39 = 3
O = 3.5 / 0.39 = 8.9 ≈ 9
S = 0.39 / 0.39 = 1
5.- Write the empirical equation
Al₃O₉S
I really don't know and it sucks when i need help and people are giving me false answers.
The reaction is shown below, Acid protonates the carbonyl oxygen and makes the carbonyl carbon more electrophilic. Water attacks on activated carbonyl group and forms a tetrahedral intermediate.
Intermediate: Structure of Intermediate is shown both in 2-D and 3-D (below attached).
Carbonyl group is regenerated with the elimination of ethanol.
Reaction is as below, The final product is carboxylic acid.
Answer:
C.H2O has the highest boiling point.
I am not totally sure.
Hope it help you.
