For which structure(s) does the electron-bearing carbon atom have a formal charge of zero

Chemistry

AlladinOne [14]3 years ago
6 0

Formal charge can be calculated from the following formula

Formal charge = valency of central atom - (number of lone pair of electrons + number of covalent bonds)

a) for methylene:

Formal charge = 4 -( 2+ 2) = 0

b) For methyl free radical

Formal charge = 4- (3 +1) = 0

Identify the property of the matter described below.
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer: C.

Explanation: Alcohol floats on oil and water sinks in oil. Water, alcohol, and oil layer well because of their densities, but also because the oil layer does not dissolve in either liquid. The oil keeps the water and alcohol separated so that they do not dissolve in one another. ... Water sinks because it is more dense than oil.

<h3>Answer:  b) 0.250 mol</h3>

============================================

Work Shown:

Using the periodic table, we see that

  • 1 mole of carbon = 12 grams
  • 1 mole of oxygen = 16 grams

These are approximations and these values are often found underneath the atomic symbol. For example, the atomic weight listed under carbon is roughly 12.011 grams. I'm rounding to 2 sig figs in those numbers listed above.

So 1 mole of CO2 is approximately 12+2*16 = 44 grams. The 2 is there since we have 2 oxygens attached to the carbon atom.

-------------------

Since 1 mole of CO2 is 44 grams, we can use that to convert from grams to moles.

11.0 grams of CO2 = (11.0 grams)*(1 mol/44 g) = (11.0/44) mol = 0.250 mol of CO2

In short,

11.0 grams of CO2 = 0.250 mol of CO2

This is approximate.

We don't need to use any of the information in the table.

An organic compound is composed of 38.7% C, 9.70% H, 51.6% O. The compound has a molecular formula mass of 62.0g/mol.

First, convert each percentage to grams: 38.7g, 9.70g, and 51.6g. 
Next, calculate the number of moles of each element, based on the number of grams given.
C = 3.23 mol
H = 8.91 mol
O = 3.23 mol
Set up the ratio of moles of each element:
C3.34H9.70O3.23. Convert the decimals to whole numbers by dividing by the smallest subscript, 3.23.
The empirical formula is CH3O.
Now, compute the formula mass, which is 31. Finally, divide the molecular mass by the formula mass, 62/31 = 2. Multiple the subscripts by 2 to get the molecular formula.
