A) C2H6O1

To find the emperical formula, divide each mole value by the smallest

For carbon, 0.013/0.0065 = 2

For hydrogen, 0.038/0.0065= 6

For oxygen, 0.0065/0.0065= 1

Emperical formula = C2H6O1

Answer:

C2H6O1

Explanation:

Empirical formula means to express the ratio of the number of atoms , i.e to identify which of the three elements appears with the smallest number of atoms in the formula, and then to get the rate of the atoms belonging to other species in respect with this one. In this molecule Oxygen shows the smallest number of moles (0.0065)  (O1)

To see how many moles of carbon correspond to 1 mole of Oxygen, divide 0.013 moles of C to 0.0065 moles of Oxygen:  0.013/0.0065 =2 Therefore for each mole of Oxygen you have two moles of C (C2)

To see how many moles of Hydrogen correspond to 1 mole of Oxygen, divide 0.039 moles of H to 0.0065 moles of Oxygen:  0.039/0.0065 =6 Therefore for each mole of Oxygen you have six moles of H  (H6)

The empirical formula is C2H6O1

In substitution reactions, (CH3)3C-I reacts at the same rate with Br- and Cl- even though Br- is a more reactive nucleophile tha
Kamila [148]

Answer:

A. (CH3)3C-I reacts by SN1 mechanism whose rate is independent of nucleophile reactivity.

Explanation:

We must recall that (CH3)3C-I is a tertiary alkyl halide. Tertiary alkyl halides preferentially undergo substitution reaction via SN1 mechanism.

In SN1 mechanism, the rate of reaction depends solely on the concentration of the alkyl halide (unimolecular mechanism) and is independent of the concentration of the nucleophile. As a result of this, both Br^- and Cl^- react at the same rate.

Which net ionic equation best represents the reaction that occurs when an aqueous solution of barium chloride is mixed with an a
vovangra [49]

Answer : The net ionic equation will be:

Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)

Explanation :

Complete ionic equation : In complete ionic equation, all the substance that are strong electrolyte and present in an aqueous are represented in the form of ions.

Net ionic equation : In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Spectator ions : The ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. The same ions present on both the sides.

The balanced molecular equation will be,

BaCl_2(aq)+Li_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow 2LiCl(aq)+BaSO_4(s)

The complete ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

Ba^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+2Li^+(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Li^+(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+BaSO_4(s)

In this equation the species, Li^+\text{ and }Cl^{-} are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions , we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be:

Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)

natka813 [3]

Answers:

1. B.)

2. Both A.) and B.)

3. A.)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Ions in gas phase

A plasma is a gas consisting of electrons and positively charged ions.

Because the particles are ions and electrons, rather than neutral atoms or molecules as in ordinary gases, scientists consider a plasma to be a fourth state of matter<em>.</em>

2. Kinetic Molecular Theory

Both activities illustrate the postulate.

A.) If the particles are extremely small and far apart, most of the volume of a gas is empty space. That's why it's easy to push the plunger of a capped nozzle syringe containing a gas.

B.) If the particles are far apart, it's easy for a coloured gas to spread into an inverted jar placed on top of a jar containing the gas.

3. Hot air balloon

The high temperature in the balloon makes the gas molecules spread apart according to Charles's law, because this law describes how a gas will behave at constant pressure.

As the hot air escapes from the vent, the combined mass of balloon + hot air becomes less than the mass of cold air that it displaces, and the balloon rises.

B.) is <em>wrong</em>. Boyle's law applies only when both the number of moles and  the temperature remain constant.
