Answer:

The molecular formula = N2O4

Explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>: Data given

A gaseous compound is 30.4 % N and 69.6%

Mass of the compound = 5.25 grams

Volume of the gas = 1.00 L

Pressure of the gas = 958 mmHg = 1.26 atm

Temperature of the gas = -4 °C = 273 -4°C = 269 Kelvin

Molar mass of N = 14 g/mol

Molar mass of O = 16 g/mol

<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate mass of N

Mass of Nitrogen = 5.25 grams * 0.304 = 1.596 grams

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate mass of O

Mass of Oxygen = 5.25 grams * 0.696 = 3.654 grams

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate number of moles N

Number of moles N = Mass of N/ Molar mass of N

Moles of N = 1.596 grams / 14g/mol

Moles of N = 0.114 moles N

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate moles of O

Moles O = 3.654 grams / 16 g/mol

Moles 0 = 0.2884 moles

<u>Step 6:</u> Calculate empirical formule

We calculate the empirical formule by dividing number of moles by the smallest number of mol

N : 0.114 / 0.114 = 1

O: 0.2284 / 0.114 = 2

Empirical formule = NO2

<u>Step 7: </u>Calculate number of moles of 5.25 g sample via gas law:

p*V = nRT

⇒ with p = the pressure = 1.26 atm

⇒ with v = 1.00 L

⇒ with n = the number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/ K*mol

⇒ with T = the temperature = 269 K

number of moles n = (p*V)/(R*T)

n = (1.26*1L)/(0.08206*269)

n = 0.057 mol  

<u>Step 8:</u> Calculate molar mass of the compound

This means 5.25 grams of the gas = 0.057 moles

So 1 mol of the compound has a molar mass of: 5.25 / 0.057 = 92.11 g/mol

<u>Step 9</u>: Calculate molar mass of the empirical formula NO2

N = 14 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

NO2 = 14 + 16 + 16 = 46 g/mol

The empirical formule NO2 has a molar mass of 46 g/mol

<u>Step 10</u>: Calculate molecular formula

92.11 / 46 = 2

This means the empirical formula should be multiplied by 2

2*(NO2) = N2O4

The molecular formula = N2O4

12345 [234]

Answer:

the reported molar concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution will be too high.

Explanation:

The term "standardization" in science or in analytical Chemistry simply means the process involved in the determination of a standard or the concentration of a particular substance.

One of the advantages and the most important of the advantages of Standardization is that it Helps in making sure that we get a result with the least error.

So, let me explain the answer. The reported molar concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution will be TOO HIGH because the potassium hydrogen phthalate is NOT completely dry. The weight of the moisture will create an additional weight which will increase the weight of potassium hydrogen phthalate in the solution

Two compounds contain only tin and chlorine. the ratio of the masses of chlorine combined with 1.00g of tin in the two compounds
Nesterboy [21]
Compound A : SnCl2
the mass ratio of Cl and Sn: 71 g Cl/ 119 g Sn = 0.579 g Cl/ 1 g Sn
Compound B: the ratio of mass of chlorine per 1 g Sn is twice the ratio of chlorine per 1 g Sn in compound A => 1,194 g Cl/ 1 g Sn = 142,086 g Cl/ 119 g Sn
=> the number of chlorine/ 1 atom Sn = 142.086/ 35.5 = 4.
=> the formula of B: SnCl4
