Oxalic Acid, a compound found in plants and vegetables such as rhubarb, has a mass percent composition of 26.7% C, 2.24% H, and

blondinia [14]

Answer:

HCO₂

Explanation:

From the information given:

The mass of the elements are:

Carbon C = 26.7 g; Hydrogen H = 2.24 g Oxygen O = 71.1 g

To determine the empirical formula;

First thing is to find the numbers of moles of each atom.

For Carbon:

$=26.7 \ g\times \dfrac{1 \ mol }{12.01 \ g} \\ \\ =2.22 \ mol \ of \ Carbon$

For Hydrogen:

$=2.24 \ g\times \dfrac{1 \ mol }{1.008 \ g} \\ \\ =2.22 \ mol \ of \ Hydrogen$

For Oxygen:

$=71.1 \ g\times \dfrac{1 \ mol }{1.008 \ g} \\ \\ =4.44 \ mol \ of \ oxygen$

Now; we use the smallest no of moles to divide the respective moles from above.

For carbon:

$\dfrac{2.22 \ mol \ of \ carbon}{2.22} =1 \ mol \ of \ carbon$

For Hydrogen:

$\dfrac{2.22 \ mol \ of \ carbon}{2.22} =1 \ mol \ of \ hydrogen$

For Oxygen:

$\dfrac{4.44 \ mol \ of \ Oxygen}{2.22} =2 \ mol \ of \ oxygen$

Thus, the empirical formula is HCO₂

Can you pls tell me the word equations for all these equations

Leokris [45]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

Balanced form;

$2C_6H_6 +15O_2 -> 12CO_2+6H_2O\\\\ Ca_3(PO_4)_2 +8C -> Ca_3P_2 +8CO\\\\2HNO_2+O_2 -> 2HNO_3\\\\Ca(OH)_2 + CO_2 -> CaC0_3+H_2O\\\\2K +Br_2 ->2KBr\\\\2NaOH+FeSO_4 -. Na_2SO_4 +Fe(OH)_2$

1.Benzene + Dioxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water

2.Tricalcium phosphate +Carbon = Calcium phosphide + carbon monoxide

3.Nitrous acid react with oxygen to produce nitric acid.

4.This means that the carbon dioxide and limewater react to produce calcium carbonate and water.

5.Potassium react with bromine to produce potassium bromide

6. An aqueous solution of ferrous sulphate reacts with aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide to form a precipitate of ferrous hydroxide and sodium sulphate remains in the solution.

Why do we need an isolated system for the law of conservation of mass to be true?

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.
