Prior to their phaseout in the 1980s, chemicals containing lead were commonly added to gasoline as anti-knocking agents. a 2.475

g sample of one such additive containing only lead, carbon, and hydrogen was burned in an oxygen rich environment. the products of the combustion were 2.694 g of co2(g) and 1.378 g of h2o(g). insert subscripts below to appropriately display the empirical formula of the gasoline additive:

4.007-2.694 g of CO2 = 2.694 x 12 / 44 g of C = 0.7347 g of C = 0.0911 moles of C 2.050-1.378 g of H2O = 2.050 x 2 / 18 g of H = 0.1531 g and 0.1531 moles mass of Pb = 2.475 - ( 0.0911 + 0.1531) g = 2.23 g = 2.23 / 207 = 0.0108 moles 
molar ratio of C:H:Pb = 0.0911: 0.1531: 0.0108divide by the smallest number and we get 8.0: 20.0: 1.0 
empirical formula is C8H20Pb 
tetraethyl lead

When the temperature of a sample of neon gas increases, what else increases? Distance between the atoms Kinetic energy of the at
Allushta [10]

Answer: Kinetic Energy of the atoms also increases.

Explanation: We are given that the temperature of the gas increases.

Relation between kinetic energy and temperature follows:

K.E._({avg})=\frac{3RT}{2N_A}

where, K = Average Kinetic energy

R = Gas constant

T = Temperature

N_A = Avogadro's number

As seen from the relation above, the Kinetic energy of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature, hence as the temperature increases, kinetic energy of the atom also increases.
