Answer:
Empirical formula is CH₄
Molecular formula = C₂H₈
Explanation:
Mass of carbon = 37.5 g
Mass of hydrogen = 12.5 g
Molecular weight = 32 g/mol
Molecular formula = ?
Empirical formula = ?
Solution:
Number of gram atoms of C = 37.5 g /12g/mol = 3.125
Number of gram atoms of H = 12.5 g / 1.008 g/mol= 12.4
Atomic ratio:
C : H
3.125/3.125 : 12.4 /3.125
1 : 4
C : H : = 1 : 4
Empirical formula is CH₄
Molecular formula:
Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)
n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass
n = 32 / 16
n = 2
Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)
Molecular formula = 2 ( CH₄)
Molecular formula = C₂H₈
A- Identify the mixture:
The mixture of powdered charcoal and powdered sugar is considered as a homogeneous mixture. This means that you cannot identify the components with naked eye as they are uniformly distributed in the mixture.
B- Separate components:
You ca separate the charcoal powder from the sugar powder using the following steps:
1- add water. Sugar will dissolve in water while charcoal won't.
2- filter the solution where the powdered charcoal will remain on the filter paper and the solution of powder will pass through.
3- boil the sugar solution (above 100 degrees celcius). The water will evaporate and the sugar will precipitate.
Answer:
The available amounts of each reactant
Explanation:
The limiting reactant is the reactant that will limit the equation.
For example, I have 2N2 and H2O. In this situation, H2O would be the limiting reactant since there is only one atom, while N2 has two atoms.
Think of it like you're making peanut butter and jelly. You have 50 cans of peanut butter and only 10 jelly. Which means you can only make sandwiches using 10 jars of jelly and 10 jars of peanut butter.
They occur between polar molecules
