Answer:

Empirical formula is C₂H₆O

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of hydrogen =100 - 86.87% = 13.13%

Percentage of carbon = 52.14%

Percentage of oxygen = 34.73%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of H = 13.13 / 1.01 = 13

Number of gram atoms of O = 34.73 / 16 = 2.17

Number of gram atoms of C = 52.14 / 12 = 4.345

Atomic ratio:

             C                      :      H            :         O

            4.345/2.17        :     13/2.17     :       2.17/2.17

             2                      :        6          :        1

C : H : O = 2 : 6 : 1

Empirical formula is C₂H₆O.

Answer:

d = 0.9 g/L

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles = 1 mol

Volume = 24.2 L

Temperature = 298 K

Pressure = 101.3 Kpa (101.3/101 = 1 atm)

Density of sample = ?

Solution:

PV = nRT     (1)

n = number of moles

number of moles = mass/molar mass

n = m/M

Now we will put the n= m/M in equation 1.

PV = m/M RT   (2)

d = m/v

PM = m/v RT ( by rearranging the equation 2)

PM = dRT

d = PM/RT

The molar mass of neon is = 20.1798 g/mol

d = 1 atm × 20.1798 g/mol / 0.0821 atm. L/mol.K × 273K

d = 20.1798 g/22.413 L

d = 0.9 g/L

Using the periodic table, how would you find elements with chemical properties similar to helium?
rosijanka [135]
<span>The state of the helium in its natural form is gaseous and is a chemical element of colorless aspect and belongs to the group of noble gases. The atomic number of helium is 2. The chemical symbol of helium is He. For the following we focus on those elements and relate it with similar chemical properties. Then we find that; Neon, Hydrogen, Boron and Carbon are related to helium, either by proximity in their atomic number or period or by their group.</span>

A student needed to make 100.0 mL of 0.20M NaOH solution. How many grams of sodium hydroxide does the student need to weigh out
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

0.08 g

Explanation:

100.0 mL = 0.10 L

Multiply the volume by the molarity to find moles.

0.10 L × 0.20 M = 0.002 mol

Convert moles to grams.

0.002 mol × 40 g/mol = 0.08 g
