Answer:
Empirical formula: CH₃O
Empirical formula mass = 31 g/mol
Explanation:
Data Given:
Molecular Formula = C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀
Empirical Formula = ?
Empirical Formula mass =
Solution
Empirical Formula:
Empirical formula is the simplest ration of atoms in the molecule but not all numbers of atoms in a compound.
So,
The ratio of the molecular formula should be divided by whole number to get the simplest ratio of molecule
As
C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀ Consist of 10 Carbon (C) atoms, 30 Hydrogen (H) atoms, and 10 Oxygen (O) atoms.
Now
Look at the ratio of these three atoms in the compound
C : H : O
10 : 30 : 10
Divide the ratio by two to get simplest ratio
C : H : O
10/10 : 30/10 : 10/10
1 : 3 : 1
So for the empirical formula the simplest ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen is 1:3:1
So the empirical formula will be
Empirical formula of C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀ = CH₃O
Now
To find the empirical formula mass in g/mol
Formula mass:
Formula mass is the total sum of the atomic masses of all the atoms present in a formula unit.
**Note:
if we represent the molar mass of the empirical formula for one mol in grams then it is written as g/mol
So,
As the empirical formula of C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀ is CH₃O
Then Its empirical formula mass will be
CH₃O
Atomic Mass of C = 12
Atomic Mass of H = 3
Atomic Mass of O = 16
Total Molar mass of CH₃O
CH₃O = 12 + 3(1) + 16
CH₃O = 12 + 3 + 16
CH₃O = 31 g/mol
Answer:
A reaction that combines simpler reactants to form a new compound is called a
<h2>Synthesis reaction.</h2>
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass number, A = 302
Atomic number, Z = 119
We know that, atomic number = no of protons
Protons = 119
Mass no. = No. of neutrons + No. of protons
302 = No. of neutrons + 119
No. of neutrons = 302 - 119
= 183
No. of electrons = No. of protons
= 119
Explanation:
Ions form when atoms gain or lose electrons. This is so that they form a full outer shell of electrons. When an atom gains electrons it becomes a negative ion, because electrons are negatively charged. For example, all halogens (group 7 or 17) form negative ions as they gain an electron forming a 1- charge. When an atom loses electrons it becomes a positive ion, as it is losing some negative charge from the electrons. This would be for example, alkali metals (group 1) which lose an electron to form a positive ion with a 1+ charge, (ALL metals form positive ions).
