Alkali metals have the lowest electronegativities, while halogens have the highest.
Answer:
Kp = 0.049
Explanation:
The equilibrium in question is;
2 SO₂ (g) + O₂ (g) ⇄ 2 SO₃ (g)
Kp = p SO₃² / ( p SO₂² x p O₂ )
The initial pressures are given, so lets set up the ICE table for the equilibrium:
atm SO₂ O₂ SO₃
I 3.3 0.79 0
C -2x -x 2x
E 3.3 - 2x 0.79 - x 2x
We are told 2x = partial pressure of SO₃ is 0.47 atm at equilibrium, so we can determine the partial pressures of SO₂ and O₂ as follows:
p SO₂ = 3.3 -0.47 atm = 2.83 atm
p O₂ = 0.79 - (0.47/2) atm = .56 atm
Now we can calculate Kp:
Kp = 0.47² /[ ( 2.83 )² x 0.56 ] = 0.049 ( rounded to 2 significant figures )
Note that we have extra data in this problem we did not need since once we setup the ICE table for the equilibrium we realize we have all the information needed to solve the question.
Answer:
The number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles
Explanation:
The molecular formula of benzaldehyde is C₇H₆O
Its molecular mass is calculated from the atomic masses of the constituent atoms.
C = 12.0 g: H = 1.0 g; O = 16.0 g
Molecular mass = ( 12 * 7) + (1 * 6) + (16 * 1) = 106.0 g/mol
Number of moles of substance = mass of substance/ molar mass of the substance
mass of benzaldehyde = 2.68; molar mass = 106.0 g/mol
Number of moles of benzaldehyde = 2.68 g/ 106 g/mol = 0.0253 moles
Therefore, the number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles
In a combustion of a hydrocarbon compound, 2 reactions are happening per element:
C + O₂ → CO₂
2 H + 1/2 O₂ → H₂O
Thus, we can determine the amount of C and H from the masses of CO₂ and H₂O produced, respectively.
1.) Compute for the amount of C in the compound. The data you need to know are the following:
Molar mass of C = 12 g/mol
Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol
Solution:
0.5008 g CO₂*(1 mol CO₂/ 44 g)*(1 mol C/1 mol CO₂) = 0.01138 mol C
0.01138 mol C*(12 g/mol) = 0.13658 g C
Compute for the amount of H in the compound. The data you need to know are the following:
Molar mass of H = 1 g/mol
Molar mass of H₂O = 18 g/mol
Solution:
0.1282 g H₂O*(1 mol H₂O/ 18 g)*(2 mol H/1 mol H₂O) = 0.014244 mol H
0.014244 mol H*(1 g/mol) = 0.014244 g H
The percent composition of pure hydrocarbon would be:
Percent composition = (Mass of C + Mass of H)/(Mass of sample) * 100
Percent composition = (0.13658 g + 0.014244 g)/(<span>0.1510 g) * 100
</span>Percent composition = 99.88%
2. The empirical formula is determined by finding the ratio of the elements. From #1, the amounts of moles is:
Amount of C = 0.01138 mol
Amount of H = 0.014244 mol
Divide the least number between the two to each of their individual amounts:
C = 0.01138/0.01138 = 1
H = 0.014244/0.01138 = 1.25
The ratio should be a whole number. So, you multiple 4 to each of the ratios:
C = 1*4 = 4
H = 1.25*4 = 5
Thus, the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon is C₄H₅.
3. The molar mass of the empirical formula is
Molar mass = 4(12 g/mol) + 5(1 g/mol) = 53 g/mol
Divide this from the given molecular weight of 106 g/mol
106 g/mol / 53 g/mol = 2
Thus, you need to multiply 2 to the subscripts of the empirical formula.
Molecular Formula = C₈H₁₀
