An alkanol contains 37.5 carbon

Chemistry
1 answer:
kow [346]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Empirical formula is CH₄

Molecular formula = C₂H₈

Explanation:

Mass of carbon = 37.5 g

Mass of hydrogen = 12.5 g

Molecular weight = 32 g/mol

Molecular formula = ?

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of C = 37.5 g /12g/mol = 3.125

Number of gram atoms of H = 12.5 g / 1.008 g/mol= 12.4

Atomic ratio:

C                 :            H            

3.125/3.125   :       12.4 /3.125

    1                :            4          

C : H : = 1 : 4

Empirical formula is CH₄

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

n = 32  / 16

n = 2

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 2 ( CH₄)

Molecular formula = C₂H₈

An equilibrium mixture of O2, SO2 and SO3 contains equal concentrations of SO2 and SO3.
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

[O₂(g)] = 0.0037M

Explanation:

            2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) => 2SO₃(g)

Conc:   [SO₂(g)]   [O₂(g)]     [SO₃(g)]  and  [SO₂(g)] = [SO₃(g)]

Kc =  [SO₃(g)]²/[O₂(g)][SO₂(g)]² => Kc = 1/[O₂(g)] = 270 if [SO₂(g)] = [SO₃(g)]

∴ [O₂(g)] = (1/270)M = 0.0037M
