Find the total number of atoms in a sample of cocaine hydrochloride, c17h22clno4, of mass 23.0 mg .

Chemistry

Nataliya [291]3 years ago
3 0
From the periodic table:
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of chlorine = 35.5 grams
Therefore,
molar mass of <span>c17h22clno4 = 17(12) + 22(1) + 35.5 + 14 + 4(16) = 339.5 grams

number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles = (23*10^-3) / (339.5)
number of moles = 6.77 * 10^-5 moles

number of atoms = number of moles * Avogadro's number
number of atoms = 6.77*10^-5 * 6.022*10^-23
number of atoms = 4.079 * 10^-27 atoms</span>

The empirical formula of an organic compound is C2H4O. The molecular mass of the compound is 176g/mol.
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The molecular formula of the compound is C_{8}H_{16}O_{4}. The molecular formula is obtained by the following expression shown below

\textrm{Molecular formula }= n\times \textrm{Empirical formula}

Explanation:

Given molecular mass of the compound is 176 g/mol

Given empirical formula is  C_{2}H_{4}O

Atomic mass of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen are 12 u , 1 u and 16 u respectively.

Empirical formula mass of the compound = \left ( 2\times12+4+16 \right ) \textrm{ u} = 44 \textrm{ g/mol}

n = \displaystyle \frac{\textrm{Molecular formula mass}}{\textrm{Empirical formula mass}} \\n = \displaystyle \frac{176}{44} = 4

\textrm{Molecular formula }= n\times \textrm{Empirical formula}

Molecular formula = 4 \times C_{2}H_{4}O

Molecular formula is C_{8}H_{16}O_{4}

A sample of helium has a volume of 5 liters and a pressure of 699 mmHg. If the final volume is 5.7 Liters, its final temperature
malfutka [58]

Answer:

The initial temperature of helium was T1 = 232.23 K

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume V1 = 5 L

Initial pressure P1 = 699 mmHg

Final pressure P2 = 800 mmHg

Final volume V2 = 5.7 L

Final temperature T2= 303 K

Initial temperature T1 = ?

Solution:

Formula:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

T1 = T2 × P1V1/P2V2

T1 = 303 K × 699 mmHg × 5 L / 800 mmHg × 5.7 L

T1 = 1058985/ 4560

T1 = 232.23 K

initial temperature of helium was 232.23 k.
