Answer: C. $C_3F_3Br_3O_3$

Explanation:

Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

Empirical formula is the simplest formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

Given empirical formula: $CFBrO$

Thus empirical mass= 12+19+80+16= 127 g

Given : Molar mass= 381.01 g

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

$n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight of metal}}{\text{Equivalent of metal}}$

$n=\frac{381.01g/mole}{127g/eq}=3$

Thus Molecular formula is : $3\times CFBrO=C_3F_3Br_3O_3$

Given:

Volume of HCl = 150 ml

Molarity of HCl = 0.10 M

To determine:

The # moles of HCl

Explanation:

The molarity of a solution is the number of moles of a solute dissolved in a given volume

In this case:

Molarity of HCl = moles of HCl/volume of the solution

moles of HCl = Molarity * volume = 0.10 moles.L-1 * 0.150 L = 0.015 moles

Ans: A)

Moles of HCl is 0.015

Ammonia is produced from the reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen according to the following balanced equation: N2 1 g 2 1 3H2 1 g

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Mass of NH3 produced = 1217 g or 1.217*10^3 g

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of N2 = 1.003*10^3 g

Mass of H2 = 5.003*10^2 g

To determine:

Maximum mass of NH3 that can be produced when the given amounts of N2 and H2 combine

Calculation:

The chemical reaction corresponding to the production of ammonia is:

$N2(g)+3H2(g)\rightarrow 2NH3(g)$

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

1 mole of N2 combines with 3 moles of H2 to form 2 moles of NH3

$moles\ of\ N2 = \frac{Mass\ N2}{Molar\ mass N2} = \frac{1.003*10^{3}g }{28g/mol} =35.8\ moles$

$moles\ of\ H2 = \frac{Mass\ H2}{Molar\ mass H2} = \frac{5.003*10^{2}g }{2g/mol} =250\ moles$

Since the moles of N2 is less than that of H2, the limiting reagent will be N2 which would in turn determine the amount of NH3 formed.

Based on the reaction stoichiometry the N2 : NH3 ratio = 1:2

Therefore,

$moles\ of\ NH3\ produced = 2*35.8 = 71.6\ moles\\\\Mass\ of\ NH3\ produced = moles*molar mass = 71.6\ moles*17\ g/mol = 1217 g$

Sound waves are produced by air flow coming from our lungs passing through our throat, more specifically our larynx and moving with two folds of tissue called vocal chords. The sound is made by the vibration of vocal chords, so the more stretched the chords are over the larynx, their frequency of vibration is higher, therefore producing higher-pitched sounds.
