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

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ad libitum [116K]2 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.

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

The correct answer is: <em>They each partially describe the bonding in a molecule.</em>

Explanation:

Some chemical molecules cannot be described completely by using only one Lewis structure. In these cases, we can describe the molecule by drawing 2 or more Lewis structures, and the structures are called <u>resonance structures</u>. The overall molecular structure is explained by all the resonance structures together. So, they each describe the bonding in the molecule only partially.

The first question is "how many moles of carbon monoxide (co) are required to react completely with 1.75 moles of iron (iii) oxi
Stells [14]

According to your equation, for every mole of iron oxide (Fe2O3), it takes 3 moles of carbon monoxide (CO). So for 1.75 moles, it takes 3 times as many moles of CO.

1.75 x 3 = 5.25 moles of CO.

I think your product is CO2. Dalton's Law sayeth that the coefficients tell us the ratios of moles. So if you hve 1.75 moles of Fe(III)oxide, 3*1.75 moles of CO are needed (in theory) to react completely. The answer is requested in moles, so you need go no further.
