1.8 L

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The volume of a gas, V, is inversely proportional to the pressure on it, P. That is:

V₁ · T₁ = V₂ · T₂.

Rearranging gives:

V₂ = V₁ · T₁ / T₂ = 4.2 × (101 / 235) = 1.8 L

2CO + O2 --> 2CO2<br> What is the coefficient of carbon dioxide?

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

<h2> 2 is the coefficient of CO₂</h2>

Explanation:

The <u>coefficient</u> is the number in front of a substance that indicates how many molecules or atoms are. For example, when we see 5He, it shows that there are 5 atoms of helium. When we see 5H₂O, it indicates that there are 5 molecules of water, each having 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen, so a total of 10 hydrogen atoms and 5 oxygen atoms.

An unknown compound containing only C and H was burnt, yielding 10.2 g of CO2 and 6.3 g of H2O. With a molecular weight of about

Lisa [10]

Answer:

$C_2H_6$

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, we can see that the mass of carbon of the unknown compound comes from the yielded mass of carbon dioxide, thus, we compute the moles of carbon as follows:

$m_C=10.2gCO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44gCO_2}*\frac{1mol C}{1molCO_2}=0.232 molC$

Moreover, the mass of hydrogen comes from the yielded water, therefore we can also compute the moles of water:

$m_H=6.3gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18gH_2O}*\frac{2molH_2}{1molH_2O} =0.7molH$

Then, to find the subscripts in the empirical formula, we divide by the moles of carbon as the smallest:

$C:\frac{0.232}{0.232}=1\\ \\H:\frac{0.7}{0.232}=3$

Whose molar mass is:

$M_{CH_3}=12+1*3=15g/mol$

Thus, the ratio of the molecular formula to the empirical formula is:

$\frac{30}{15}=2$

Therefore, the molecular formula is twice the empirical formula:

$C_2H_6$

Which is actually ethane.
