Answer: 0.4333moles/kg.

Explanation: Molality is a property of a solution and is defined as the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. In the given problem the sugar is the solute and the water is the solvent, so to calculate the molality we need to divide the moles of sugar by the kilograms of water:

molality=m=moles of solute/kilograms of solvent

m=2.6moles of sugar/6kg of water

m=0.4333moles/kg.

aseous methane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 5.5 g of methane is

maksim [4K]

Answer:

There is 9.6 grams of CO2 produced

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of methane = 5.50 grams

Molar mass of methane = 16.04 g/mol

Mass of oxygen = 13.9 grams

Molar mass of oxygen = 32.0 g/mol

Step 2: The reaction

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

Step 3: Calculate number of moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles methane = 5.50 grams / 16.04 g/mol

Moles methane = 0.343 moles

Moles oxygen = 13.9 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles oxygen = 0.434 moles

For 1 mol CH4 we need 2 moles O2 to produce 1 mol CO2 and 2 moles H2O

O2 is the limiting reactant. It will completely react (0.434 moles).

There will react 0.434/2 = 0.217 moles CH4

There will remain 0.343-0.217 = 0.126 moles CH4

There will be produced 0.434 moles of H2O and

0.434/2 =0.217 moles of CO2

Step 4: Calculate mass of products

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass CO2 = 0.217 moles ¨44.01 g/mol

Mass CO2 = 9.6 grams

Mass H2O = 0.434 moles * 18.02

Mass H2O = 7.8 grams

Ethanedioic acid, a compound that is present in many vegetables, has a molar mass of 90.04 g/mol and a composition of 26.7% Carb

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Empirical CHO2

Molecular C2H2O4

Explanation:

To determine the formulas, firstly, we need to divide the percentage compositions by the atomic masses.

Kindly note that the atomic mass of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen are 12, 16 and 1 respectively. We proceed with the division as follows:

C = 26.7/12 = 2.225

H = 2.2/1 = 2.2

O = 71.1/16 = 4.44375

We then proceed to divide by the smallest value which is 2.2 in this case

C = 2.25/2.2 = 1

H = 2.2/2.2 = 1

O = 4.44375/2.2 = 2

Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2

We now proceed to get the molecular formula as follows

[12+ 1 + 16(2) ]n = 90.04

45n = 90.04

n = 90.04/45 = 2

The molecular formula is :

C2H2O4

A sample of Ni(CO)4, a toxic transition-metal complex, has 5.23 x 10^24 atoms of carbon. How many atoms of Ni does it contain?

miss Akunina [59]

In Ni(CO)₄ the stoichiometry of Ni to C is 1:4
for every 4 atoms of C is attached to one Ni atom.
this means that if there are 4 atoms of C - 1 atom of Ni
in 5.23 x 10²⁴ atoms of C -1/4 x 5.23 x 10²⁴ atoms of Ni
= 1.3075 x 10²⁴ atoms of Ni
the number of atoms rounded off to the second decimal place = 1.31 x 10²⁴ atoms
correct answer is E
