Answer: 1.8 x 10^1 or the scientific e notation is: 1.8e1
Answer:
CH₂
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Percentage composition:
Carbon = 40.1%
Hydrogen = 6.6%
Unknown:
Empirical formula of the compound = ?
Solution:
The empirical formula of a substance is its simplest formula.
Elements Carbon Hydrogen
Percentage
Composition 40.1 6.6
Molecular mass 12 1
Number of moles 40.1/12 6.6/1
3.342 6.6
Divide through by
the smallest 3.342/3.342 6.6/3.342
1 2
So the empirical formula of the compound is CH₂
Answer
For this we use ideal gas equation which is:
P1V1 = P2V2
P1 = 1.10 atm
V1 = 326 ml
P2 = 1.90
V2 = ?
By rearranging the ideal gas equation:
V2 = P1V1 ÷ P2
V2 = 1.10 × 326 ÷1.90
V2 = 358.6 ÷ 1.90
V2 = 188.7 ml
2) is the answer. graphite and diamonds possess the same molecular structes however the bonds and structures of diamonds are considerably stronger and more tightly packed respectively
