The combustion of an organic compound is mostly written as,
CaHbOc + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
where a, b, and c are supposed to be the subscripts of the elements C, H, and O in the compound. Determining the number of moles of C and H in the product which is the same as that in the compound,
(Carbon, C) : (561 mg) x (12/44) = 153 mg x (1 mmole/12 mg) = 12.75
(Hydrogen, H) : (306 mg) x (2/18) = 34 mg x (1 mmole/1 mg) = 34
Calculating for amount of O in the sample,
(oxygen, O) = 255 - 153 mg - 34 mg = 68 mg x (1mmole/16 mg) = 4.25
The empirical formula is therefore,
C(51/4)H34O17/4
C3H8O1
The molar mass of the empirical formula is 60. Therefore, the molecular formula of the compound is,
C9H24O3
Answer:
Imo : Gas particles are in constant, random motion. The volume of gas particles is negligible in comparison to the volume of the container. There are no attractive forces between gas particles.
the average speed is 23.4 km per hour cause it is total distance over total time equal to average speed
Answer:
For neutral atoms, the number of valence electrons is equal to the atom's main group number. The main group number for an element can be found from its column on the periodic table. For example, carbon is in group 4 and has 4 valence electrons. Oxygen is in group 6 and has 6 valence electrons.
