Chemistry
1 answer:
daser333 [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a. Hydrocarbons have low boiling points compared to compounds of similar molar mass.

b. Hydrocarbons are hydrophobic.

d. Hydrocarbons are insoluble in water.

Explanation:

As we know that the hydrocarbons is a mix of carbon and hydrogen. In this the availability of the electronegative atom is not there that shows there is no bonding of the hydrogen plus it is dissolved. Also, the hydrocarbons is considered to be a non-polar but as compared to the water, water is a polar

In addition to this, the strong bond is no existed that shows the lower boiling points  

Therefore option A, B and D are right

A gaseous hydrogen and carbon containing compound is decomposed and found to contain 82.66% carbon and 17.34% hydrogen by mass.
Doss [256]
For the answer to the question above, I'll show the solution to my answers

moles C = 82.66 g/ 12.0111 g/mol=6.882 
<span>moles H = 17.34 g/ 1.008 g/mol=17.20 </span>

<span>17.20/ 6.882 =2.5 => H </span>
<span>6.882 / 6.882 = 1 => C </span>

<span>to get whole numbers multiply by 2 </span>
<span>C2H5 ( empirical formula Molar mass = 29.062 g/mol) </span>

<span>n = pV/RT = 0.732 x 0.158 L/ 0.08206 x 298 K= 0.00473 </span>
<span>molar mass = 0.275/ 0.00473 =58.1 g/mol </span>

<span>58.1 / 29.062 = 2 </span>

<span>multiply by two the empirical formula </span>
