Answer:

The molecular formula = C_{6}H_{6}

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of compound, m = 0.145 g

Temperature = 200 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (200 + 273.15) K = 473.15 K

V = 97.2 mL = 0.0972 L

Pressure = 0.74 atm

Considering,  

n=\frac{m}{M}

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=\frac{m}{M}RT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

m is the mass of the gas

M is the molar mass of the gas

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the values in the above equation as:-

0.74\times 0.0972=\frac{0.145}{M}\times 0.0821\times 473.15

M=78.31\ g/mol

The empirical formula is = CH

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 12 + 1 = 13 g/mol

Molar mass = 78.31 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

78.31 = n × 13

⇒ n ≅ 6

The molecular formula = C_{6}H_{6}

If a 12-volt battery produces a current of 20 amps, what is the resistance?
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

0.6 Ω

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Current (I) = 20 A

Resistance (R) =?

From Ohm's law,

V = IR

Where:

V => is the voltage

I => is the current

R => R is the resistance

With the above formula, we can obtain the resistance as follow:

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Current (I) = 20 A

Resistance (R) =?

V = IR

12 = 20 × R

Divide both side by 20

R = 12 / 20

R = 0.6 Ω

Thus the resistance is 0.6 Ω

If I have an unknown quantity of gas at a pressure of 380 mmHg, a volume of 25 L, and a temperature of
Bess [88]

Answer:

                     0.5077 moles

Explanation:

Data Given:

                Moles  =  n  =  <u>???</u>

                Temperature  =  T  =  300 K

                 Pressure  =  P  =  380 mmHg = 0.50 atm

                 Volume  =  V  =  25 L

Formula Used:

Let's assume that the hydrogen gas in balloon is acting as an Ideal gas, the according to Ideal Gas Equation,

                 P V  =  n R T

where;  R  =  Universal Gas Constant  =  0.082057 atm.L.mol⁻¹.K⁻¹

Solving Equation for n,

                 n  =  P V / RT

Putting Values,

                 n  =  (0.50 atm × 25 L) / (0.082057 atm.L.mol⁻¹.K⁻¹ × 300 K)

                 n  = 0.5077 moles
