Answer:

Explanation:

The tendency of a liquid to convert to vapour increases smoothly with increasing temperature. Vapour pressure shows the tendency of a liquid to convert to vapour. Increase In vapour pressure shows an increased tendency to convert to vapour. The higher the temperature, the higher the vapour pressure.

Explain how creativity can play a role in the construction of scientific questions and hypotheses.

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Scientific questions and hypotheses come up frequently while one is engaged in investigating a scientific phenomenon such as natural geological phenomena as may occur in geological mapping in the field. For example, there may be a question does this canyon or deeply incised valley which is quite straight follow a weakness in the earth's crust like a major fault or the direction of bedding in well bedded sedimentary rocks. In a particular topographic area, some hypotheses which may be developed is that valleys follow geological structure whereas ridges follow resistant rocks like quartzites or quartz sandstones or in the ocean, points or capes may represent resistant quartz sandstones and bays may represent weak soft shales recessively weathering

Menthol, the substance we can smell in mentholated cough drops, is composed of C, H, and O. A 0.1005 g sample of menthol is comb

Bogdan [553]

Answer: The molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=0.2829g$

Mass of $H_2O=0.1159g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.2829 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.2829=0.077g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.1159 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.1159=0.0129g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.1005) - (0.077 + 0.0129) = 0.0106 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.077g}{12g/mole}=0.0064moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.0129g}{1g/mole}=0.0129moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.0106g}{16g/mole}=0.00066moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.00066 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.0064}{0.00066}=9.69\approx 10$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.0129}{0.00064}=19.54\approx 20$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.00066}{0.00066}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 10 : 20 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{10}H_{20}O_1=C_{10}H_{20}O$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

$n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 156.27 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 156 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{156.27g/mol}{156g/mol}=1$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(1\times 10)}H_{(1\times 20)}O_{(1\times 1)}=C_{10}H_{20}O$

Thus, the molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$

Ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) is used as an antifreeze in cars. If 250 g of ethylene glycol is added to 3.00 kg of water, what is the

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

2,909 M

Explanation:

molair mass is of.ethylene is 26,04 g/mol

first you need to calculate how much mL 3 kg is. You can do this by using the density of ethylene: 1,1 g/mL.

3000 g x 1.1 = 3300 mL = 3,3 L

Next you need to calculate the amount of moles:

250 g / 26,04 g/mol = 9,60 mol

Now you can calculate the molarity:

9,6/3.3 = 2,909 M

I don't know the answer for the second question. I'm sorry.
