Answer: 568g/mol
Explanation:
It should be noted that there are 40 atoms of carbon in lycopene.
Since mass of 1 carbon = 12g/mol
Mass of 40 carbon atoms = 40 × 12g/mol = 480g/mol
Let the molar mass of lycopene be represented by x.
Therefore the molar mass of carbon = x × mass percent of carbon in lycopene
x × 84.49% = 480g/mol
x × 0.8449 = 480g/mol
x = 480/0.8449
x = 568g/mol
The molar mass of lycopene is 568g/mol
The empirical formula, <span>C<span>H2</span></span>, has a relative molecular mass of
<span>1×<span>(12.01)</span>+2×<span>(1.01)</span>=14.04</span>
This means that the empirical formula must be multiplied by a factor to bring up its molecular weight to 70. This factor can be calculated as the ratio of the relative masses of the molecular and empirical formulas
<span><span>7014.04</span>=4.98≈5</span>
Remember that subscripts in molecular formulas must be in whole numbers, hence the rounding-off. Finally, the molecular formula is
<span><span>C<span>1×5</span></span><span>H<span>2×5</span></span>=<span>C5</span><span>H<span>10</span></span></span>
Answer:
The vegetative parts includes the roots, stems,leaves and the reproductive parts include flowers. ... The vegetative parts can reproduce new plants by the process of vegetative propagation but the reproductive parts cannot produce new plants directly instead they produce precursor of new plants that are seeds or fruits.
cl2>F2>H2
we can do this by molar mass
Hydrogen - 1
clorine - 35 x2 = 70
flourine- 18 x 2 = 36
flourine - 18
