What is the most appropriate unit of astronomical distance to represent the distance between an earth an orbiting space station

Reil [10]

Astronauts use "Astronomical Unit" to measure the distance between planets in our solar system "only". To measure long distances like between 2 galaxies, they use "light years". One Astronomical Unit = Average distance between sun and earth which is equal to 149.6 million kilometers. Ping me if you have any doubt.

A 7.0 g sample of a hydrocarbon (a molecule that has only hydrogen and carbon) is subject to combustion analysis. The mass of CO

Akimi4 [234]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is $CH_2$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of compound having carbon and hydrogen follows:

$C_xH_y+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x' and 'y' are the subscripts of carbon and hydrogen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=22.0g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

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

So, in 22.0 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 22.0=6g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

Mass of hydrogen = Mass of sample - Mass of carbon

Mass of hydrogen = 7.0 g - 6 g

Mass of hydrogen = 1.0 g

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

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{6g}{12g/mole}=0.5moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{1.0g}{1g/mole}=1.0moles$

Step 2: 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 0.5 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.5}{0.5}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{1.0}{0.5}=2$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

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

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{1}H_{2}=CH_2$

Why is a molecule of CO2 nonpolar even though the bonds between the carbon atom and the oxygen atoms are polar?

schepotkina [342]

The correct answer is option 1. Carbon dioxide is nonpolar because the shape of the molecule is symmetrical. It is a linear molecule where the oxygen atoms are symmetrical on each end. CO2 molecule do not have a region of unequal sharing.
