Calculate the molecular formula of a compound with the empirical formula C5H11 and a molar mass of 142.32 grams/mole

1 answer:

6 0

Relative formula mass C₅H₁₁ = 71

Now divide the molar mass by the RFM = 142.32 / 71 = 2

Now C₍₅ₓ₂₎H₍₁₁ₓ₂) = C₁₀H₂₂

Hope that helps

Logging trees is often controversial. Why would some people support logging and some people not support logging?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

It seems more and more there are fewer conservation organizations who speak for the forest, and more that speak for the timber industry. Witness several recent commentaries in Oregon papers that are by no means unique. I’ve seen similar themes from other conservation groups across the West in recent years.

Many conservation groups have uncritically adopted views that support more logging of our public lands based upon increasingly disputed ideas about forest health and fire ecology, as well as the age-old bias against natural processes like wildfire and beetles.

For instance, an article in the Portland Oregonian quotes Oregon Wild’s executive director Sean Stevens bemoaning the closure of a timber mill in John Day Oregon. Stevens said: “Loss of the 29-year-old Malheur Lumber Co. mill would be ‘a sad turn of events’” Surprisingly, Oregon Wild is readily supporting federal subsidies to promote more logging on the Malheur National Forest to sustain the mill.

A solution of NaOH is titrated with H2SO4. It is found that 20.05 mL of 0.3564 M H2SO4 solution is equivalent to 43.42 mL of NaO

Darya [45]

Answer : The concentration of NaOH is, 0.336 M

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of base, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is $H_2SO_4$

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

$n_1=2\\M_1=0.3564M\\V_1=20.05mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=?\\V_2=43.42mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$2\times 0.3564M\times 20.05mL=1\times M_2\times 43.42mL$

$M_2=0.336M$

Thus, the concentration of NaOH is, 0.336 M

The theoretical yield of Cl2 from certain starting amounts of MnO2 and HCl was calculated as 60.25 g and 65.02 g, respectively.

user100 [1]

Answer:

c 43.38 g

Explanation:

The reaction between MnO2 and HCl can be represented by the following balanced equation:

MnO2 + HCl ---> Cl2 + MnCl2 + H2O

From the balanced equation, the theoretically required molar ratio of MnO2 to HCl is 1:1, therefore the yields would have been expected to be equal.

For the fact that HCl gives a higher yield (65.02g) than MnO2 (60.25g) according to the problem statement, HCl should be in excess, while the limiting reagent should be MnO2 .

Thus, the theoretical yield of Cl2 will be 60.25 g.

By definition, the percentage yield is given by

% Yield = (Actual Yield) / (Theoretical Yield),

This can be simplified to

Actual Yield = % Yield * Theoretical Yield

Plugging in the given values we have

Actual Yield = 72% * 60.25 = 43.38 g
