Ans: Moles of CO2 = 0.25 moles

Given:

Mass of CO2 = 11 g

To determine

Moles of CO2

Explanation:

Moles = mass/molecular mass

Molecular mass of CO2 = 44 g/mol

Moles of CO2 = 11 g/44 g.mol-1 = 0.25 moles

Complete and balance the molecular equation, including the phases, for the reaction of aqueous potassium sulfate, k2so4, and aqu

Tju [1.3M]

The reaction between K₂SO₄(aq) and SrI₂(aq) produces KI(aq) and SrSO₄(s) as products.

The reaction is
K₂SO₄(aq) + SrI₂(aq) → KI(aq)+ SrSO₄(s)

To balance the equation both side of the reaction should have same number of atoms in each element.

Right hand side of the reaction has 1 K, 1 I, 1 Sr, 1 S and 4 O atoms while 2 K, 2 I, 1 Sr,1 S and 4 O present in left hand side of the reaction.
Hence, number of I atoms and number of K atoms are not balanced.
To balance the K atoms we should add 2 before KI. Then I atoms will be 2 at the right hand side.

Hence, the balanced reaction equation is
K₂SO₄(aq) + SrI₂(aq) → 2KI(aq)+ SrSO₄(s)

When 7.085 grams of a hydrocarbon, CxHy, were burned in a combustion analysis apparatus, 21.71 grams of CO2 and 10.37 grams of H

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

- Empirical:

$C_3H_7$

- Molecular:

$C_6H_{14}$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, based on the information regarding the combustion, the moles of carbon turn out:

$n_C=21.71gCO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44gCO_2}*\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2}=0.493molC$

Moreover, the moles of hydrogen:

$n_H=10.37gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18gH_2O}*\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O}=1.152molH$

Thus, the subscripts of carbon and hydrogen in the hydrocarbon turn out:

$C=\frac{0.4934}{0.4934}=1\\H=\frac{1.15222}{0.4934}=2.335\\CH_{2.335}$

Now, looking for a suitable whole number we obtain the following empirical formula as 2.335 times 3 is 7 for hydrogen:

$C_3H_7$

In such a way, that compound has a molar mass of 43 g/mol, thus, the whole compound's molar mass is 86.18 g/mol for which the molecular formula is twice the empirical one, therefore:

$C_6H_{14}$

Which is hexane.

Best regards.
