Let (CH2O)n be molecular formula,
(12+1+1+16)n=90.08
30n=90.08
n=3
molecular formula: (CH2O) 3= C3H6O3

Answer:

16 mol NaCl.

Explanation:

Do the train track method to cancel out all the units except moles of NaCl on top. Remember one mole of any gas occupies 22.4 L at STP.

179.2 L CO2 x 1 mol CO2/22.4 L CO2 x 2 mol NaCl/1 mol CO2

= 16 mol NaCl

What is the molarity of 2.00 L of a solution that contains 14.6 g NaCl?

White raven [17]

Answer: The molarity of the solution is 0.125 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

$Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}$

where,

n = moles of solute

$V_s$ = volume of solution in L

moles of $NaCl$ = $\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{14.6g}{58.5g/mol}=0.250mol$

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

$Molarity=\frac{0.250mol}{2.00L}=0.125M$

Therefore, the molarity of the solution is 0.125 M

Given 3.4 grams of x compound with a molar mass of 85 g and 4.2 grams of y compound with a molar mass of 48 g How much of compou

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

$4.36~g~XY$

Explanation:

In this case, we can start with the reaction:

$2X + Y_2~->~2XY$

If we check the reaction, we will have 2 X and Y atoms on both sides. So, the reaction is balanced. Now, the problem give to us two amounts of reagents. Therefore, we have to find the limiting reagent. The first step then is to find the moles of each compound using the molar mass:

$3.4~g~X\frac{1~mol~X}{85~g~X}=0.04~mol~X$

$4.2~g~Y_2\frac{1~mol~Y_2}{48~g~Y_2}=0.0875~mol~Y_2$

Now, we can divide by the coefficient of each compound (given by the balanced reaction):

$\frac{0.04~mol~X}{1}=~0.04$

$\frac{0.0875~mol~Y_2}{2}=0.04375$

The smallest value is for "X", therefore this is our limiting reagent. Now, if we use the molar ratio between "X" and "XY" we can calculate the moles of XY, so:

$0.04~mol~X\frac{2~mol~XY}{2~mol~X}=0.04~mol~XY$

Finally, with the molar mass of "XY" we can calculate the grams. Now, we know that 1 mol X = 85 g X and 1 mol $Y_2$ = 48 g $Y_2$ (therefore 1 mol Y = 24 g Y). With this in mind the molar mass of XY would be 85+24 = 109 g/mol. With this in mind:

$0.04~mol~XY\frac{109~g~XY}{1~mol~XY}=4.36~g~XY$

I hope it helps!
