1) list givens and convert if necessary

C₁ = 3.50 mol/L

V₁ = 0.550 L

C₂ = ?

V₂ = 0.275 L

2) rearrange formula

$C_{1}V_{1}=C_{2}V_{2}\\\\C_{2}=\frac{C_{1}V_{1}}{V_{2}}$

3) solve

$C_{2}=\frac{(3.50\ mol/L)(0.550\ L)}{(0.275\ L)}$

C₂ = 7.00 mol/L

A 8.00g of a certain Compound X, known to be made of carbon, hydrogen and perhaps oxygen, and to have a molecular molar mass of

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

C3H6.

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question:

Mass of the compound = 8g

Mass of CO2 = 24.01g

Mass of H2O = 13.10g

Next, we shall determine the mass of C, H and O present in the compound. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 44g/mol

Molar Mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of C in compound = Mass of C/Molar Mass of CO2 x 24.01

=> 12/44 x 24.01 = 6.5g

Mass of H in the compound = Mass of H/Molar Mass of H2O x 13.1

=> 2x1/18 x 13.1 = 1.5g

Mass of O in the compound = Mass of compound – (mass of C + Mass of H)

=> 8 – (6.5 + 1.5) = 0

Next, we shall determine the empirical formula of the compound. This is illustrated below:

C = 6.5g

H = 1.

Divide by their molar mass

C = 6.5/12 = 0.54

H = 1.4/1 = 1.

Divide by the smallest

C = 0.54/0.54 = 1

H = 1/0.54 = 2

Therefore, the empirical formula is CH2

Finally, we shall determine the molecular formula as follow:

The molecular formula of a compound is a multiple of the empirical formula.

Molecular formula = [CH2]n

[CH2]n = 44

[12 + (2x1)]n = 44

14n = 44

Divide both side by 14

n = 44/14

n = 3

Molecular formula = [CH2]n = [CH2]3 = C3H6

Therefore, the molecular formula of the compound is C3H6

V 2 O 5 + Cl 2  VOCl 3 + O 2

rosijanka [135]

Answer: 3.5 moles V2O5

Explanation: First balance the chemical equation to find the stoichiometric factor between VOCl3 and V2O5

2 V2O5 + 6 Cl2 => 4 VOCl3 + 7 O2

So the mole to mole ratio is 2 moles V2O5 to 4 moles of VOCl3

Solution

7 moles VOCl3 x 2 moles V2O5 / 4 moles VOCl3 = 3.5 moles V2O5

How many molecules are in a 2.1 mol of H2O? *

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The mole is the SI unit for amount of a substance.

Explanation:

Just like the dozen and the gross, it is a name that stands for a number. There are therefore 6.02 × 10 23 water molecules in a mole of water molecules.
