When finding empirical formulas decimals are fine so you wouldn't have to multiply all of them to turn into whole numbers. What you would do is divide each of those numbers by the smallest of those numbers and take the nearest whole number so if you had:

1.81 mol     .6 mol     and .3.61 mol you would divide each of those numbers by .6
and you would have 3, 1, and 6

for your problem you would divide them all by 1 and Carbon would be 2 (if your teacher normally has you round down at .5's then it would be 1)  hydrogen would be 3 and oxygen would be 1.

C2H6 (g) + O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + H2O (g) (not balanced) Determine the number of liters of CO2 formed at STP when 240.0 grams of C2H
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

13.44dm^3

Explanation:

To calculate this we first need to know the number of mole produced. We will first need to balance the equation to know the theoretical mole ratio.

C2H6 (g) + 3.5O2 (g) → 2CO2 (g) + 3H2O (g)

From the balanced equation, we can deduce that one mole of ethane yielded 2 moles of carbon iv oxide. We use this information to calculate the actual number of moles yielded.

24g were reacted. Now to know the number of moles reacted, we simply divide the mass by the molar mass. The molar mass of ethane is 2(12) +6(1)= 40g/mol

The number of moles is thus 24/40 = 0.6 moles

Like we said earlier, one mole yielded 2 moles of carbon iv oxide, hence, 0.6 moles will yield 0.6 * 2 = 0.12 moles of carbon iv oxide.

Now, at stp, one mole of a gas occupies a volume of 22.4dm^3 thus, 0.6 mole will occupy 0.6 * 22.4 = 13.44dm^3

2. The ions in an ionic compound separate from each other when
kkurt [141]

Answer:

A. when dissolved in water

Explanation:

Water is an extremely polar molecule, meaning it has a positive end a negative end. When an ionic compound is dissolved, the positive pole of water will be attracted to the negative ion and attach itself to it. The same goes for the positive ions. That's how water breaks down ionic compounds

5.00 g of solid silver nitrate AgNO3 is added to 100ml of deionized H2O to make a substance that can test the presence of chlori
stepan [7]

The solvent will be the deionized water, the solute will be the AgNO3, and the solution is the substance that can test the presence of chlorine water.

<h3>Solvent, solute, and solution</h3>

A solvent is a liquid that can dissolve other substances

A solute is a solid capable of dissolving in relevant solvents

A solution is a mixture of solvent and dissolved solutes

In this case, the solvent that is capable of dissolving the solute is deionized water. The solute is the silver nitrate, while the solution would be a solution of silver nitrate.
