F (Fluorine) is in column (group/family) VIIA, or the "halogens". When you see the halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) in combination with a metal, each halogen atom present will carry a -1 charge. We can see that the atom has no charge, so the metal must cancel out the negative charges brought by the two fluorine atoms.
(Charge on m) + 2*(charge on fluorine) = 0
(Charge on m) + 2*(-1) = 0
(Charge on m) - 2 = 0
Charge on m ion = +2

A mixture containing nitrogen and hydrogen weighs 3.49 g and occupies a volume of 7.45 L at 305 K and 1.03 atm. Calculate the ma
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Mass percent N₂ = 89%

Mass percent H₂ = 11%

Explanation:

First we <u>use PV=nRT to calculate n</u>, which is the total number of moles of nitrogen and hydrogen:

  • 1.03 atm * 7.45 L = n * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 305 K
  • n = 0.307 mol

So now we know that

  • MolH₂ + MolN₂ = 0.307 mol

and

  • MolH₂ * 2 g/mol + MolN₂ * 28 g/mol = 3.49 g

So we have a <u>system of two equations and two unknowns</u>. We use algebra to solve it:

Express MolH₂ in terms of MolN₂:

  • MolH₂ + MolN₂ = 0.307 mol
  • MolH₂ = 0.307 - MolN₂

Replace that value in the second equation:

  • MolH₂ * 2 g/mol + MolN₂ * 28 g/mol = 3.49
  • (0.307-MolN₂) * 2 + MolN₂ * 28 = 3.49
  • 0.614 - 2MolN₂ + 28molN₂ = 3.49
  • 0.614 + 26MolN₂ = 3.49
  • MolN₂ = 0.111 mol

Now we calculate MolH₂:

  • MolH₂ + MolN₂ = 0.307 mol
  • MolH₂ + 0.111 = 0.307
  • MolH₂ = 0.196 mol

Finally, we convert each of those mol numbers to mass, to <u>calculate the mass percent</u>:

  • N₂ ⇒ 0.111 mol * 28 g/mol = 3.108 g N₂
  • H₂ ⇒ 0.196 mol * 2 g/mol = 0.392 g H₂

Mass % N₂ = 3.108/3.49 * 100% = 89.05% ≅ 89%

Mass % H₂ = 0.392/3.49 * 100% = 11.15% ≅ 11%

A 13.30 gram sample of an organic compound containing C, H and O is analyzed by combustion analysis and 13.00 grams of CO2 and 2
a_sh-v [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is CHO_2 and C_2H_2O_4

<u>Explanation:</u>

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=13.00g

Mass of H_2O=2.662g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

<u>For calculating the mass of carbon:</u>

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 13.00 g of carbon dioxide, \frac{12}{44}\times 13.00=3.54g of carbon will be contained.

<u>For calculating the mass of hydrogen:</u>

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

So, in 2.662 g of water, \frac{2}{18}\times 2.662=0.296g of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (13.30) - (3.54 + 0.296) = 9.464 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

  • <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon =\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{3.54g}{12g/mole}=0.295moles

Moles of Hydrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.296g}{1g/mole}=0.296moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{9.465g}{16g/mole}=0.603moles

  • <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.295 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{0.295}{0.295}=1

For Hydrogen = \frac{0.296}{0.295}=1

For Oxygen = \frac{0.603}{0.295}=2.044\approx 2

  • <u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 1 : 1 : 2

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is CHO_2

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

n=\frac{\text{Molecular mass}}{\text{Empirical mass}}

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 90.04 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 45 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

n=\frac{90.04g/mol}{45g/mol}=2

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

C_{(1\times 2)}H_{(1\times 2)}O_{(2\times 2)}=C_2H_2O_4

Hence, the empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is CHO_2 and C_2H_2O_4
