A compound with the empirical formula, ch2, has a molar mass equal to 84.2 g/mol. what is the molecular formula for the compound
MatroZZZ [7]
<span>Mass of CH2 = 12 + 2 = 14 g/mol The number of CH2s there are. So since the total mass is 84.2 g/mol. The solution is 84.2/14 = 6.012 thus the answer is 6 There are 6(CH2) So the molecular formula is C6H12</span>

A 2.5% (by mass) solution concentration signifies that there is of solute in every 100 g of solution. 2. therefore, when 2.5% is
densk [106]
Answer #1 is "there is 2.5 grams of solute in every 100 g of solution." 
We calculate for 2.5% by mass solution by dividing the mass of the solute by the mass of the solution and then multiply by 100.
Answer #2 is "that mass ratio would be 2.5/100 or 2.5 grams of solute/100 grams of solution." 
We weigh out 2.5 grams of solute and then add 97.5 grams of solvent to make a total of 100 gram solution, that is,
     mass of solute / mass of solution = 2.5g solute / (2.5g solute + 97.5g solvent)
                                                          = 2.5g solute / 100g solution
Answer#3 is "a solution mass of 1 kg is 10 times greater than 100 g, thus one kilogram (1 kg) of a 2.5% ki solution would contain 25 grams of ki."
We multiply 10 to each mass so that 100 grams becomes 1000grams since 1000 grams is equal to 1 kg:
     mass of solute / mass of solution = 2.5g*10/[(2.5g*10) + (97.5g*10)]
                                                          = 25g solute/(25g solute + 975g solvent)
                                                          = 25g solute/1000g solution
                                                          = 25g solute/1kg solution

Determine the molarity of a solution with a volume of 435. mL and 0.550 mol of solute dissolved.
lora16 [44]

Answer:

M = 1.26

Explanation:

Molarity = mole of solution/liters of solution
435mL/1000 = .435L
Plugging in the numbers into the formula, we get:
Molarity = .550 mol/.435L = 1.26 M
