Answer:
C₆H₈O₆
Explanation:
First off, the<u> percent of oxygen by mass</u> of vitamin C is:
- 100 - (40.9+4.58) = 54.52 %
<em>Assume we have one mol of vitamin C</em>. Then we would have <em>180 grams</em>, of which:
- 180 * 40.9/100 = 73.62 grams are of Carbon
- 180 * 4.58/100 = 8.224 grams are of Hydrogen
- 180 * 54.52/100 = 98.136 grams are of Oxygen
Now we <u>convert each of those masses to moles</u>, using the <em>elements' respective atomic mass</em>:
- C ⇒ 73.62 g ÷ 12 g/mol = 6.135 mol C ≅ 6 mol C
- H ⇒ 8.224 g ÷ 1 g/mol = 8.224 mol H ≅ 8 mol H
- O ⇒ 98.136 g ÷ 16 g/mol = 6.134 mol O ≅ 6 mol O
So the molecular formula for vitamin C is C₆H₈O₆
a) NH₃ molecules have stronger intermolecular attractions than CH₄ molecules.
Explanation:
Ammonia molecules have stronger intermolecular attractions compared to methane.
Ammonia molecules have london dispersion forces and hydrogen bonds between their molecules.
Methane molecules have only london dispersion forces in their structure.
- hydrogen bonds are very strong attractive forces between molecules in which the hydrogen of a molecule is attracted by a more electronegative atom of another usually oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine.
- London dispersion forces are weak forces of attraction between heteronuclear atoms.
