Answer:
Empirical CHO
molecular C4H4O4
Explanation:
From the question, we know that it contains 41.39% C , 3.47% H and the rest oxygen. To get the % composition of the oxygen, we simply add the carbon and hydrogen together and subtract from 100%.
This means : O = 100 - 41.39 - 3.47 = 55.14%
Next is to divide the percentage compositions by their atomic masses.
C = 41.39/12 = 3.45
O = 55.14/16 = 3.45
H = 3.47/1 = 3.47
Now we divide by the smallest value which is 3.45. We can deduce that this will definitely give us an answer of 1 all through as the values are very similar.
Hence the empirical formula of Maleic acid is CHO
Now we go on to deduce the molecular formula.
To do this we need the molar mass. I.e the amount in grammes per one mole of the compound.
Now we can see that 0.378mole = 43.8g
Then 1 mole = xg
x = (43.8*1)/0.378 = 115.87 = apprx 116
[CHO]n = 116
(12 + 1 + 16]n = 116
29n = 116
n = 116/29 = 4
The molecular formula is thus C4H4O4
Answer:
3. Inverse 1. Direct
Explanation:
P- pressure
V - volume
T - temperature
P1*V1 / T1 = P2*V2 / T2 ...... (1)
That's the general gas law with the combined ideas of charles, boyle & lussac.
Whenever you are restricted as "constant" temperature, volume, or pressure...cancel them off of your equation.
in this case 3. is indirectly telling us to cancel the temperature (T).
so we'll be left w P1*V1 = P2*V2
now notice that any relation ship that is multiplied like the one above consists of inversely related quantities. & so we conclude that-
P & V are inversely proportional or have an inverse relationship.
similarly in 1. we'll cancel p off of the general formula (1)
to be left with V1/T1 = V2/T2
also note that quantities involved in division are directly related to each other & hence the answer.
Substance change.
solid to a liquid
melting state when heat was applied.
