A compound contains 10.13% C and 89.87% Cl (by mass). Determine both the empirical formula and the molecular formula of the comp
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The empirical formula is = CCl_3

The molecular formula = C_2Cl_6

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

% of C = 10.13

Molar mass of C = 12.0107 g/mol

% moles of C = 10.13 / 12.0107 = 0.8434

% of Cl = 89.87

Molar mass of Cl = 35.453 g/mol

% moles of Cl = 89.87 / 35.453 = 2.5349

Taking the simplest ratio for C and Cl as:

0.8434 : 2.5349

= 1 : 3

The empirical formula is = CCl_3

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 + 3*35.5 = 118.5 g/mol

Molar mass = 237 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

237 = n × 118.5

⇒ n ≅ 2

The molecular formula = C_2Cl_6

What kind of chemical bond is formed between nonmetals? Explain your answer.
REY [17]

Answer:

The ionic bond is formed due to an electrostatic force of attraction between two oppositely charged ions. This bond is usually formed between a metal and a nonmetal. Prior to the electrostatic attraction, there is a total transfer of valence electrons from one atom to the other atom.

On a summer day early in the moming, a balloon is filled with helium when the temperature
MAXImum [283]

Based on the data provided;

  • number of moles of helium gas is 1.25 moles
  • pressure at peak temperature is 259.3 kPa
  • internal pressure is above 256 kPa, therefore, the balloon will burst.
  • pressure should be reduced to a value less than 256 kPa by reducing the temperature

<h3>What is the ideal has equation?</h3>

The ideal gas equation relatesthe pressure, volume, moles and temperature of a gas.

The moles of helium gas is calculated using the Ideal gas equation:

  • PV = nRT

n is the number of moles of gas

R is molar gas constant = 8.314 L⋅kPa/Kmol

P is pressure = 239 kPa

T is temperature = 21°C = 294 K

V is volume = 12.8 L

Therefore;

n = PV/RT

n = 239 × 12.8 / 8.314 × 294

n = 1.25 moles

The number of moles of helium gas is 1.25 moles

At peak temperature, T = 46°C = 319 K

Using P1/T1 = P2/T2

P2 = P1T2/T1

P2 = 239 × 319/294

P2 = 259.3 kPa

The pressure at peak temperature is 259.3 kPa

At 42°C, T = 315 K

Using P1/T1 = P2/T2

P2 = P1T2/T1

P2 = 239 × 315/294

P2 = 256.07 kPa

Since the internal pressure is above 256 kPa, the balloon will burst.

The pressure should be reduced to a value less than 256 kPa by reducing the temperature.

faltersainse [42]
The reaction for what was describe in the problem is:

N₂ + 3 O₂ --> 2 NO₃

The reactants involved are nitrogen and oxygen gas. From the word itself, oxygen is an oxidizing agent. <em>Therefore, this reaction is an oxidation reaction due to the presence of the oxidizing agent.</em>
