Can methene exist? Explain yes or no

1 answer:

7 0

Methene (non existent) would be an alkene and therefore would need a carbon to carbon double bond, since it only has one carbon it can't bond to another, this is why the lowest alkene is ethene (C2H4). i hope this helps

Which of the following is a part of a land based carbon cycle ?coral reefs

Sergio [31]

The appropriate answer is C. Trees. Trees remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through the process of photosynthesis. The carbon dioxide is used along with water and energy from the sun to make food for plants.
Corals extract dissolved carbon dioxide from the ocean to secrete their hard rocky structures.
Crab shells and other marine animals with shells have their bodies incorporated into the seafloor when they die. The sea floor eventually gets subducted where it melts. The carbon present here gets back into the atmosphere via volcanic eruptions.

The empirical formula of a compound is CH. At 200 degree C, 0.145 g of this compound occupies 97.2 mL at a pressure of 0.74 atm.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The molecular formula = $C_{6}H_{6}$

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of compound, m = 0.145 g

Temperature = 200 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T = (200 + 273.15) K = 473.15 K

V = 97.2 mL = 0.0972 L

Pressure = 0.74 atm

Considering,

$n=\frac{m}{M}$

Using ideal gas equation as:

$PV=\frac{m}{M}RT$

where,

P is the pressure

V is the volume

m is the mass of the gas

M is the molar mass of the gas

T is the temperature

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the values in the above equation as:-

$0.74\times 0.0972=\frac{0.145}{M}\times 0.0821\times 473.15$

$M=78.31\ g/mol$

The empirical formula is = $CH$

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 12 + 1 = 13 g/mol

Molar mass = 78.31 g/mol

So,

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

78.31 = n × 13

⇒ n ≅ 6

The molecular formula = $C_{6}H_{6}$
