The reaction  for  equation is    written  as  follows

2Cs (s) +  2H2O(l) =  2CsOH (aq) +  H2  (g)

The  mass  of  cesium  is  calculated  as  follows

Find  the  moles  of  H2  by use  of  ideal  gas  equation  that is  Pv = nRT
where  n  is  the  number of   moles

 n  =  PV/RT
P=  48.1  ml    in  liters  =  48.1  /1000= 0.0481 l
T=  19 +  273.15 =  292.15K
P=  768mm hg
R (gas  Constant)=  62.364 l.
mmhg/k.mol

n= ( 768mmhg  x0.0481 L) /( 62.364 L.mm hg/k.mol  x  292.15k) =  2.028  x10^-3  moles

by   use  of  mole  ratio from  reacting  equation between  Cs to  H2    which  is   2 :1  the  moles  of Cs  is therefore  =  ( 2.028  x10^-3)  x  2 =  4.05  x10^-3 moles

mass  of  cs is therefore  =  moles  x  molar  mass  of  cs(  132.9g/mol)

=( 4.05  x10^-3)mol  x  132.9 g/mol  =  0.539  grams

What is the empirical formula of a compound composed of 3.25% hydrogen ( H ), 19.36% carbon ( C ), and 77.39% oxygen ( O ) by ma
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

The answer to your question is C₂HO₃

Explanation:

Data

Hydrogen = 3.25%

Carbon = 19.36%

Oxygen = 77.39%

Process

1.- Write the percent as grams

Hydrogen = 3.25 g

Carbon = 19.36 g

Oxygen = 77.39 g

2.- Convert the grams to moles

                     1 g of H ----------------- 1 mol

                   3,25 g of H -------------  x

                     x = (3.25 x 1) / 1

                     x = 3.25 moles

                    12 g of C ---------------- 1 mol

                     19.36 g of C ----------  x

                     x = (19.36 x 1) / 12

                     x = 1.61 moles

                     16g of O --------------- 1 mol

                     77.39 g of O ---------  x

                      x = (77.39 x 1)/16

                      x = 4.83

3.- Divide by the lowest number of moles

Carbon = 3.25/1.61 = 2

Hydrogen = 1.61/1.61 = 1

Oxygen = 4.83/1.61 = 3

4.- Write the empirical formula

                        C₂HO₃

Anybody know chemistry Grahams law ?
sukhopar [10]
There is two different types but i’ll just do both meanings just incase.

Graham's Law of Diffusion: the rate of diffusion of one gas through another is inversely proportional to the square root of the density of the gas.

Graham's Law of Effusion: the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the density of the gas.

hopes this helps..!

Describe the physical properties of each state of matter
Leni [432]
Solid - made up of tightly packed particles, which gives it a solid shape.
Gas - made up of very loose particles, giving it more freedom to roam around as a gas
Liquid - fills into whatever it gets put in, basically takes the shape of the object its in

Why are the average atomic masses of some of the elements in parentheses?
Pie
Because its only representing the most stable isotope of that element but its considered the atomic mass and not average atomic mass
