Answer:

C3H5NO2

Explanation:

C = 41.37%;

H = 5.75% ;

N= 16.09 %;

O= (100 - 41.37 - 5.75 - 16.09)% = 36.79 %.

In 100 g of substance we have

C = 41.37 g;

H = 5.75 g ;

N= 16.09 g;

O = 36.79 g.

Molar mass (C) = 12 g/mol;

Molar mass(H) =1 g/mol;

Molar mass(N)= 14 g/mol;

Molar mass(O) = 16 g/mol.

C = 41.37 g* 1 mol/12g = 3.4475 mol;

H = 5.75 g *1 mol/1g = 5.75 mol;

N= 16.09 g*1mol/14g = 1.1493 mol;

O = 36.79 g* 1mol/16g = 2.2994 mol.

The Empirical formula shows ratio of moles of elements in the substance , so

C : H : N : O = 3.4475 mol : 5.75 mol : 1.1493 mol : 2.2994 mol =

= (3.4475 mol /1.1493 mol) : (5.75 mol/1.1493 mol) : (1.1493 mol /1.1493 mol) : :( 2.2994 mol/1.1493 mol) = 3 : 5 : 1 : 2

C : H : N : O = 3 : 5 : 1 : 2

Which of the following chemical formulas represents a molecule? H2 CO2 SiO2 NH3

astraxan [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

H (or hydrogen), being a halogen, as an atom, has 7 valence electrons. This means that it naturally bonds with another atom of the same isotope in order to reach the desired total of valence electrons: 8.

So... H+H = H2. EZ

The speed of light is around 6.706×10^8 miles per hour. What is the speed of light in units of miles per minute?

Sindrei [870]

Answer: The speed of light in miles per minutes is $1.117\times 10^7miles/min$

Explanation:

We are given the speed of light is $6.706\times 10^8miles/hr$ and we need to convert it into miles/min. So, we use the converion factor:

1 hour = 60 minutes

Converting that quantity into miles/minutes, we get:

$(\frac{6.706miles}{1hr})(\frac{1hr}{60min})=\frac{1.117\times 10^7miles}{min}$

Hence, the speed of light in miles per minutes is $1.117\times 10^7miles/min$

Combustion analysis of naphthelene, a hydrocarbon used in mothballs, produces 13.20g CO2 and 1.80g H2O. Calculate the empirical

guapka [62]

Answer: C₃H₂

Explanation:

1) Since you are told naphthelene is a hydrocarbon, you know that its chemical formula only has atoms of C and H.

2) Since combustion adds O but not C nor H, you know that all the C and H present in the products come from the naphthelene sample.

3) Calculate the amount of C in 13.20 grams of CO₂:

Use atomic masses:

C: 12.01 g/mol
O: 16.00 g/mol

⇒ molar mass of CO₂ = 12.01 g/mol + 2×16.01 g/mol = 44.01 g/mol

Proportion of C in 13.20 g of CO₂

12.01 g C / 44.01 g CO₂ = x / 13.20 g CO₂ ⇒

x = 13.20 g CO₂ × 12.01 g C / 44.01 g CO₂ = 3.602 g C

3) Calculate the mass of H in 1.80 g of H₂O

Atomic masses:

H: 1.01 g/mol
O: 16.0 g/mol

Molar mass H₂O = 18.02 g/mol

Proportion of H in 1.80 g H₂O

2.02 g H / 18.02 g H₂O = x / 1.80 g H₂O

x = 1.80 gH₂O × 2.02 g H / 18.02 gH₂O = 0.202 g H.

4) Calculate the number of moles of C and H in the masses calculated above

Number of moles of C = 3.602 g C / 12.01 g/mol = 0.3 mol

Number of moles of H = 0.202 g / 1.01 g/mol = 0.2 mol

5) Divide both amounts by the smallest one to calculate the proportion in moles:

C: 0.3 / 0.2 = 1.5 mol

H = 0.2 / 0.2 = 1 mol

Multiply by 2 to obtain integers:

C: 3
H: 2

6) Then the proportion leads to the empirical formula C₃H₂
