Answer:

P=(mRT/MV) then P=dRT/M

so at STP:

T= 25 celsius which equals 298.73 Kelvin

d= 1.046 g/mL = 0.001046 g/L

R =0.08206 Latm/Kmol

M= molar mass of C16H22O4, which is (12)16+(1)22+(16)4 = 278 g/mol

P=dRT/M

1 atm = 760 torr = 760 mm Hg

multiply P by 760

The correct answer to this question is this one:

use PV=nRT

we can convert it into P=(mRT/MV) then P=dRT/M
so at STP:
T= 25 celsius which equals 298.73 Kelvin
<span />d= 1.046 g/mL = 0.001046 g/L (we need to use litres in the ideal gas equation)
<span />R =0.08206 Latm/Kmol
<span />M= molar mass of C16H22O4, which is (12)16+(1)22+(16)4 = 278 g/mol


<span>so plug this into: P=dRT/M

once you found the pressure, P, you need to convert it into torr (because it will be in atm (atmospheres).. since 1 atm = 760 torr = 760 mm Hg

multiply P by 760 and you're done. You;ll have the pressure in torr </span>

C3H8 has a boiling point than C2H6
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

C₃H₈ has a higher boiling point than C₂H₆

Explanation:

The boiling point is the temperature at which the intermolecular bonds holding molecules in liquid form are overcome and change the state into a gas. C₃H₈ experiences stronger intermolecular bonds then C₂H₆ because it has more carbons. While the strength of each bond is the same between the two molecules, C₃H₈ has more opportunities to create these bonds due to the higher carbon count.  The more bountiful the intermolecular bonds, the more energy is needed to overcome them all. Thus, C₃H₈ has a higher boiling point.

Do everything has the same amount of energy
drek231 [11]
The simple answer is no because not all living things have the same amount of energy because they have different properties or functions

tresset_1 [31]
A solution is mainly composed of two parts the solute and the solvent. The solute is the substance that is dissolve and it has relatively smaller composition with respect to the other substance called the solvent. The solvent is what dissolves the solute it has the higher composition. Therefore, the solvent is the ethyl alcohol.
