Answer:

A. Carbon

Explanation:

Carbon is one of the most important elements for the structure of living things. It is responsible for 19% of the body composition of animals, behind only oxygen, which contributes 61%. The head is one of the main elements that make up the tissues and organs of animals.

Carbon has a special property: it can make four different chemical bonds. This means that, in addition to being able to bond with atoms of other elements such as hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorus, carbon can also bond in different ways with other carbon atoms.

The result is the formation of thousands of carbon compounds that are present in nature, rocks, minerals, products made in industries, plastics, smoke, oil, plants, animals and within our own bodies.

what is the molar mass of a gaseous flouride of sulfur containing 70.4% F and having a density of approximately 4.5g/L at 20 deg

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The molar mass is 180.2 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

% of F = 70.4 %

Density = 4.5 g/L

Temperature = 20 °C

Pressure = 1 atm

Step 2: Calculate the number of moles

PV = nRT

⇒ with P = the pressure = 1.00 atm

⇒ with V = the volume = Assume this is 1L

⇒ with n = the number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ T = the temperature : 20°C = 293 Kelvin

1 atm*1L= n(0.08206 L-atm/mol-K)*(293 K)

n = 0.04159 moles

Step 3: Calculate molar mass

Molar mass = Mass / moles

4.5 grams / 0.04159 moles = 108.2 g/mol

Step 4: Calculate moles of F

Moles = Mass / molar mass

Moles F = 70.4 g / 19 g/mol

Moles F = 3.70 moles

Moles S = 29.6g / 32.07 g/mol

Moles S = 0.923 moles S

Step 5: Divide by the smallest amount of moles

F = 3.70 / 0.923 = 4

S = 0.923 / 0.923 = 1

The empirical formula is SF4

The molar mass of SF4 = 32.07 + 4*19 = 108.07 g/mol

This means the empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula SF4

The molar mass is 180.2 g/mol
