(b) A compound X contains carbon, hydrogen and oxygen only

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ad libitum [116K]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Let compound X be 100g.

Molar mass of carbon = 12g/mol

Moles of C in compound X = 54.54/12 = 4.54mol.

Molar mass of hydrogen = 1g/mol

Moles of H in compound X = 9.09/1 = 9.09mol.

Molar mass of oxygen = 16g/mol

Moles of O in compound X = 36.37/16 = 2.27mol

Ratio of C:H:O = 4.54:9.09:2.27 = 2:4:1.

Hence, the empirical formula of X is C2H4O.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

V2= 531.4 ml

Explanation:

T1= 273+45 °C= 318 Kelvin

T2= 273+65 °C= 338 Kelvin

V1= 500ml *( 0.001L/1ml)= 0.5 Liters

V2= \frac{V1 * T2}{T1}= \frac{0.5 L * 338K}{318K} = 0.5314465409 Liters* (1 ml/0.001 L)= 531.4 ml
