Answer:
The empirical formula is C₂H₃
Explanation:
The empirical formula of a chemical compound is defined as the simplest positive integer ratio of atoms present in a compound.
The reaction of combustion for a CₐHₓ is:
CₐHₓ + (a+x/4) O₂ → a CO₂ + ˣ/₂ H₂O
The moles obtained are
15,3 g of CO₂ × = 0,3476 moles of CO₂≡moles of C
4,70 g of H₂O × = 0,2608 moles of H₂O × 2 = 0,5216 moles of H.
The ratio H:C is 0,5216/0,3476= 1,5. That means you have 1,5 H per 1C, that is the same than 3H per 2C. Thus, empirical formula is:
C₂H₃

Answer:
Phosphorus-32, would be produced.
Explanation:
During α-decay, an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle. Alpha decay is represented by .
The nucleus decays into an atom with an atomic number 2 less and a mass number 4 less than its original.
Chlorine-36 would undergo alpha deay to give Phosphorus-32
The reaction equation is:
⇒ +
Answer:
252.5g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Volume of vodka = 0.8L
Molarity of ethanol = 6.86M
Unknown:
Mass of ethanol = ?
Solution:
Molarity is one of the ways of expressing concentration. It is the number of moles of a substance in a solution.
Since Vodka = ethanol + water = solution
Molarity =
Number of moles of ethanol = molarity of vodka x volume of solution
Once we obtain the number of moles, we can derive the mass of the ethanol;
Number of moles = 6.86M x 0.8L = 5.49moles
Mass of ethanol = number of moles x molar mass
molar mass of ethanol = 12 + 3(1) + 12 + 2(1) + 16 + 1 = 46g/mol
Mass of ethanol = 5.49 x 46 = 252.5g
