Explanation:

First, calculate the moles of CO_{2} using ideal gas equation as follows.

                PV = nRT

or,          n = \frac{PV}{RT}

                = \frac{1 atm \times 4.41 ml}{0.0821 Latm/mol K \times 293 K}      (as 1 bar = 1 atm (approx))

                = 0.183 mol

As,   Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Hence, mass of water will be as follows.

                Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

             0.998 g/ml = \frac{mass}{3.26 ml}    

                 mass = 3.25 g

Similarly, calculate the moles of water as follows.

        No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                              =  \frac{3.25 g}{18.02 g/mol}            

                              = 0.180 mol

Moles of hydrogen = 0.180 \times 2 = 0.36 mol

Now, mass of carbon will be as follows.

       No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

          0.183 mol =  \frac{mass}{12 g/mol}            

                              = 2.19 g

Therefore, mass of oxygen will be as follows.

              Mass of O = mass of sample - (mass of C + mass of H)

                                = 3.50 g - (2.19 g + 0.36 g)

                                = 0.95 g

Therefore, moles of oxygen will be as follows.

          No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                               =  \frac{0.95 g}{16 g/mol}            

                              = 0.059 mol

Now, diving number of moles of each element of the compound by smallest no. of moles as follows.

                         C              H           O

No. of moles:  0.183        0.36       0.059

On dividing:      3.1           6.1            1

Therefore, empirical formula of the given compound is C_{3}H_{6}O.

Thus, we can conclude that empirical formula of the given compound is C_{3}H_{6}O.

Explain what happens in a nuclear chain reaction
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Nuclear Chain Reactions. A chain reaction refers to a process in which neutrons released in fission produce an additional fission in at least one further nucleus. This nucleus in turn produces neutrons, and the process repeats. The process may be controlled (nuclear power) or uncontrolled (nuclear weapons).

What causes pressure inside an inflated soccer ball?
ioda

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Ball bounces because of the difference in the air pressure on the outside of the ball, and opposite the point of impact, and the pressure inside of the ball. This means that the inside of the ball now has less space to contain the air molecules contained inside the ball, increasing the pressure inside the ball.

What is the mass of the solid NH4Cl formed when 75.5 g of NH3 is mixed with an equal mass of HCl? What is the volume of the gas
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer : The volume of the gas remaining is 56.5 liters.

The gas is hydrochloric acid and the formula of the gas is HCl.

The mass of NH_4Cl produced is, 110.7 grams.

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

NH_3+HCl\rightarrow NH_4Cl

First we have to calculate the moles of NH_3 and HCl

\text{Moles of }NH_3=\frac{\text{Mass of }NH_3}{\text{Molar mass of }NH_3}

Molar mass of NH_3 = 17 g/mole

\text{Moles of }NH_3=\frac{75.5g}{17g/mole}=4.44mole

and,

\text{Moles of }HCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }HCl}{\text{Molar mass of }HCl}

Molar mass of HCl = 36.5 g/mole

\text{Moles of }HCl=\frac{75.5g}{36.5g/mole}=2.07mole

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of HCl react with 1 mole of NH_3

So, 2.07 mole of HCl react with 2.07 mole of NH_3

From this we conclude that, NH_3 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and HCl is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

The remaining moles of HCl gas = 4.44 - 2.07 = 2.37 moles

Now we have to calculate the volume of the gas remaining.

Using ideal gas equation :

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of gas = 752 mmHg = 0.989 atm     (1 atm = 760 mmHg)

V = Volume of gas = ?

n = number of moles of gas = 2.37 moles

R = Gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of gas = 14.0^oC=273+14.0=287K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.989atm\times V=2.37mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times 287K

V = 56.5 L

Now we have to calculate the moles of NH_4Cl

As, 1 mole of HCl react with 1 mole of NH_4Cl

So, 2.07 mole of HCl react with 2.07 mole of NH_4Cl

Now we have to calculate the mass of NH_4Cl

\text{ Mass of }NH_4Cl=\text{ Moles of }NH_4Cl\times \text{ Molar mass of }NH_4Cl

Molar mass of NH_4Cl = 53.5 g/mole

\text{ Mass of }NH_4Cl=(2.07moles)\times (53.5g/mole)=110.7g

Thus, the volume of the gas remaining is 56.5 liters.

The gas is hydrochloric acid and the formula of the gas is HCl.

The mass of NH_4Cl produced is, 110.7 grams.
