Answer:
Empirical CHO
molecular C4H4O4
Explanation:
From the question, we know that it contains 41.39% C , 3.47% H and the rest oxygen. To get the % composition of the oxygen, we simply add the carbon and hydrogen together and subtract from 100%.
This means : O = 100 - 41.39 - 3.47 = 55.14%
Next is to divide the percentage compositions by their atomic masses.
C = 41.39/12 = 3.45
O = 55.14/16 = 3.45
H = 3.47/1 = 3.47
Now we divide by the smallest value which is 3.45. We can deduce that this will definitely give us an answer of 1 all through as the values are very similar.
Hence the empirical formula of Maleic acid is CHO
Now we go on to deduce the molecular formula.
To do this we need the molar mass. I.e the amount in grammes per one mole of the compound.
Now we can see that 0.378mole = 43.8g
Then 1 mole = xg
x = (43.8*1)/0.378 = 115.87 = apprx 116
[CHO]n = 116
(12 + 1 + 16]n = 116
29n = 116
n = 116/29 = 4
The molecular formula is thus C4H4O4
We are told that KOH is being used to completely neutral H₂SO₄ according to the following reaction:
KOH + H₂SO₄ → H₂O + KHSO₄
If KOH can completely neutralize H₂SO₄, then there must be an equal amount of moles of each as they are in a 1:1 ratio:
0.025 L x 0.150 mol/L = .00375 mol KOH
0.00375 mol KOH x 1 mole H₂SO₄/1 mole KOH = 0.00375 mol H₂SO₄
We are told we have 15 mL of H₂SO₄ initially, so now we can find the original concentration:
0.00375 mol / 0.015 L = 0.25 mol/L
The concentration of H₂SO₄ being neutralized is 0.25 M.
The answer is d because it said so
2 atome nitrogen , 1 is correct
Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, 1 being the conditions initially and 2 being the secondary conditions…. always make sure you convert you units first , L=695.8262L
