95.3g/mole

Explanation:

To find the molar mass of substance, we sum the atomic masses of the number of atoms present.

The molar mass of a compound is grams per mole mass of the atoms it contains.

For MgCl₂;

Atomic mass of Mg = 24.3g/mol

Cl = 35.5g/mol

Molar mass = 24.3 + 2(35.5) = 95.3g/mole

Answer: The empirical formula is $C_3H_3O$ .

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 $CO_2$ = 12.24 g

Mass of $H_2O$ = 2.505 g

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 12.24 g of carbon dioxide, = $\frac{12}{44}\times 12.24=3.338g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

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

So, in 2.505 g of water, = $\frac{2}{18}\times 2.505=0.278g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (5.287) - (3.338+0.278) = 1.671 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C = $\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{3.338g}{12g/mole}=0.278moles$

Moles of H= $\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{0.278g}{1g/mole}=0.278moles$

Moles of O= $\frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{1.671g}{16g/mole}=0.104moles$

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C = $\frac{0.278}{0.104}=3$

For H = $\frac{0.278}{0.104}=3$

For O = $\frac{0.104}{0.104}=1$

The ratio of C : H : O = 3: 3: 1

Hence the empirical formula is $C_3H_3O$ .

Which of the following best explains why the two values in Parts A and B are different? The perceived forces between chlorine ga

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The high system pressure and relatively large chlorine molecule size.

Explanation:

Having the expression of the ideal gas, and clearing the pressure, we have:

P = nRT/V

Meanwhile, for a non-ideal gas we have the following equation:

P = (nRT / V-nb) - n2a/V2

In this equation, high pressures and low temperatures have an influence on nonideal gases.

Therefore, at high pressures, the molecules in a gas are closer together and have high intermolecular forces. On the other hand, at low temperatures, the kinetic energy of a gas is reduced, so that the intermolecular attractive forces are also reduced.
