Answer;

C7H14O2

Solution;

Isobutyl contains , oxygen, carbon and hydrogen (total mass is 1.152 g)

Mass of carbon = 12/44 × 2.726 g

                           = 0.743455 g

Mass of Hydrogen  = 2/18 × 1.116 g

                            =  0.124 g

Mass of oxygen = 1.152 - (0.7435 + 0.124)

                           =  0.2845 g

Moles of carbon ;  0.7435/12 = 0.06196 moles

Moles of hydrogen; 0.124/1 = 0.124 moles

Moles of oxygen;  0.2845/16 = 0.01778 moles

Ratios ; 0.06196/0.01778 ; 0.124/0.01778 : 0.01778/0.01778

         =  3.5 :  7.0 : 1

To make them whole numbers ; we multiply the ratios by 2  to get;

(3.5 :  7.0 : 1 )2 = 7 : 14 : 2

Thus, the empirical formula of Isobutyl propionate  is C7H14O2

Ion Concentration 1. Which solution has the greatest [SO42-]: a) 0.075 M H2SO4 b) 0.15 M Na2SO4 c) 0.080 M Al2(SO4)3?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

c) 0.080 M Al₂(SO₄)₃

Explanation:

Ion [SO₄²⁻] concentration of each solution is:

a) 0.075 M H₂SO₄: <em>[SO₄²⁻] = 0.075M</em>. Because 1 mole of H₂SO₄ contains 1 mole of SO₄²⁻

b) 0.15 M Na₂SO₄: <em>[SO₄²⁻] = 0.15M</em>. Also, 1 mole of Na₂SO₄ contains 1 mole of SO₄²⁻

c) 0.080 M Al₂(SO₄)₃ [SO₄²⁻] = 0.080Mₓ3 =<em> 0.240M</em>. Because 1 mole of Al₂(SO₄)₃ contains 3 moles of SO₄²⁻.

<h3>Thus, the soluion that has the greatest [SO₄²⁻] is 0.080 M Al₂(SO₄)₃</h3>
