We calculate first the number of moles of CO2 and H2O produced by dividing the given masses by the molar masses of CO2 and H2O.
moles CO2 = (12.9 g CO2) x (1 mole CO2 / 12 g CO2) = 1.075 moles.
moles H2O = (6.15 g H2O) x (1 mole H2O / 18 g H2O) = 0.36 moles
Then, we count the number of C, H, and O moles. This gives us 1.075 moles C, 2.5 moles O and 0.72 moles H. The empirical formula is,
C1.075H0.72O2.5
Simplifying,
C4H3O10
Answer:....................................................................
Explanation:.............................................................................
For a given substance, the amount of light absorbed depend on these four factors:
1. The wavelength of light.
2. The extinction coefficient of the absorbing material.
3. The path lenght of the medium through which the light is travelling and
4. The concentration of the substance.
When carbon compounds react with themselves to form a larger molecule the process is called polymerization. Specifically addition polymerization. sometimes molecules containing containing carbon to carbon double bonds can join together to form longer chains. The double bond is broken and the electrons in it join to neighboring molecules.
The statement labeled as (a) is the correct one on that list.
