The planet Earth itself is considered to be a closed system because there is a limit to the amount of matter that is exchanged. However, there are open systems that are ON Earth.
Answer:
C₅H₁₀O₅
Explanation:
1. Calculate the mass of each element in 2.78 mg of X.
(a) Mass of C

(b) Mass of H

(c) Mass of O
Mass of O = 3.5 - 1.400 - 0.2349 = 1.87 g
2. Calculate the moles of each element

3. Calculate the molar ratios
Divide all moles by the smallest number of moles.

4. Round the ratios to the nearest integer
C:H:O = 1:2:1
5. Write the empirical formula
The empirical formula is CH₂O.
6. Calculate the molecular formula.
EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016 + 16.00) u = 30.03 u
The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.
MF = (EF)ₙ

MF = (CH₂O)₅ = C₅H₁₀O₅
The molecular formula of X is C₅H₁₀O₅.
Answer:
a. 1810mL
Explanation:
When conditions for a gas change under constant pressure (and the number of molecules doesn't change), it follows Charles' Law:
where the temperatures must be measured in Kelvin
To convert from Celsius to Kelvin, add 273, or use the equation: 
For this problem, one must also recall that standard temperature is 0°C (or 273K).
So,
, and
.
