The empirical formula : CH₃
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
2.5 g sample
2.002 g Carbon
Required
The empirical formula
Solution
Mass of Hydrogen :
= 2.5 - 2.002
= 0.498
Mol ratio C : H :
C : 2.002/12 = 0.167
H : 0.498/1 = 0.498
Divide by 0.167 :
C : H = 1 : 3
Answer:
Sample A is a mixture
Sample B is a mixture
Explanation:
For sample A, we are told that the originally yellow solid was dissolved and we obtained an orange powder at the bottom of the beaker. Subsequently, only about 30.0 g of solid was recovered out of the 50.0g of solid dissolved. This implies that the solid is not pure and must be a mixture. The other components of the mixture must have remained in solution accounting for the loss in mass of solid obtained.
For sample B, we are told that boiling started at 66.2°C and continued until 76.0°C. The implication of this is that B must be a mixture since it boils over a range of temperatures. Pure substances have a sharp boiling point.
Answer:
Molecular compounds consist of two or more nonmetals. The nonmetals that make up a molecular compound are held together by covalent/molecular bonds. Covalent bonds is known as the "sharing" of valence electrons between two or more chemical species. Valence electrons are shared so that the atoms of the compound can become stable, much like how ionic bonds transfer valence electrons between atoms to achieve stability.
