To
determine the empirical formula of the compound given, we need to determine the ratio of each element in the compound. To do that we assume to have 100 grams sample
of the compound with the given composition. Then, we calculate for the number
of moles of each element. We do as follows:<span>
mass moles
C 56.79 4.73
H 6.56 6.50
O 28.37 1.77
N 8.28 0.59
Dividing the number of moles of each element with
the smallest value, we will have the empirical formula:
</span> moles ratio
C 4.73 / 0.59 8
H 6.50 / 0.59 11
O 1.77 / 0.59 3
N 0.59 / 0.59 1<span>
</span><span>
The empirical formula would be C8H11O3N.</span>
4.17 moles. Good luck! :)
They burn up and cause it to look like shooting stars
Answer:
Specific heat of metal = 0.26 j/g.°C
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of sample = 80.0 g
Initial temperature = 55.5 °C
Final temperature = 81.75 °C
Amount of heat absorbed = 540 j
Specific heat of metal = ?
Solution:
Specific heat capacity:
It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
ΔT = 81.75 °C - 55.5 °C
ΔT = 26.25 °C
540 j = 80 g × c × 26.25 °C
540 j = 2100 g.°C× c
540 j / 2100 g.°C = c
c = 0.26 j/g.°C
