Our good friend and pseudo scientist, homer simpson, attempts to analyze 300 mg of an unknown compound containing only c and h b

y burning it in excess oxygen. 540 mg of h2o is produced. you may assume that all the hydrogen in the compound ended up as water.

C_{x}H_{y} + O_{2} --\ \textgreater \  x CO_{2} + \frac{y}{2} H{2}O

540mg H_{2}O* \frac{1 mmol H_{2}O}{18 mg H_{2}O} =30 mmol H_{2}O

\\ \\30 mmolH_{2}O   -have  -  60 mmol H
\\  \\ 60 mmol H* \frac{1mg H}{1 mmol H}    =60 mg H
\\ \\300mg C_{x}H_{y} - 60 mg H= 240 mg C
\\ \\ 240 mgC* \frac{1mmol}{12mg} =20 mmol C

20 mmol C: 60 mmol H=1 mol C : 3 mol H

koban [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is butanal

Explanation:

To name this compound we must consider:

When carbon is attached to oxygen is a border, this functional group is called Aldehyde.

2.- Count the total number of carbons starting from the right. This molecule has 4 carbons.

3.- Name the compound

    An organic molecule with 4 carbons is called butane but change the ending for al, then the name will be butanal

Draw the lewis structure for bef2 in the box at the right, including lone pairs.
Kamila [148]

Answer :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

The given molecule is, BeF_2

Beryllium has '2' valence electrons and fluorine has '7' valence electrons. Beryllium is the central atom and fluorine is the terminal atom.

Total number valence electrons in BeF_2 = 2 + 2(7) = 16

According to the Lewis-dot structure, there are '4' number of bonding electrons and 12 number of non-bonding electrons (lone-pair).

The Lewis-dot structure is shown below.
