The chemical formula for the compound containing 8.6 mol of sulfur and 3.42 mol of phosphorus is P₂S₅

<h3>How do I determine the formula of the compound?</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obatined:

  • Sulphur (S) = 8.6 moles
  • Phosphorus (P) = 3.42 mole
  • Chemical formula =?

The chemical formula of the compound can be obtained as follow:

Divide by their molar mass

S = 8.6 / 32 = 0.26875

P = 3.42 / 31 = 0.11032

Divide by the smallest

S = 0.26875 / 0.11032 = 2.44

P = 0.11032 / 0.11032 = 1

Multiply by 2 to express in whole number

S = 2.44 × 2 = 5

P = 1 × 2 = 2

Thus, the chemical formula is P₂S₅

What is the volume of 3.00 M sulfuric aid that contain 9.809 g of H2SO4 (98.09g/mol)
Slav-nsk [51]

Given :

Molarity of sulfuric acid solution is 3.0 M.

Amount of sulfuric acid present in solution is 9.809 g.

To Find :

The volume of solution.

Solution :

We know, molarity is given by :

Molarity = \dfrac{number \ of \ moles \times 1000}{Volume\ ( ml )}\\\\M = \dfrac{w \times 1000}{M.M \times V}\\\\3 = \dfrac{9.809\times 1000}{98.09 \times V}\\\\V = \dfrac{1000}{10\times 3}\  ml\\\\V = 33.33 \ ml

Therefore, volume required is 33.33 ml .

How many molecules are present in 4.21 moles of HBr?​
salantis [7]

Answer:

The answer is

<h3>2.53 × 10²⁴ molecules</h3>

Explanation:

The number of molecules present can be found by using the formula

<h3>N = n × L</h3>

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

N = 4.21 × 6.02 × 10²³

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.53 × 10²⁴ molecules</h3>

Hope this helps you
