First, convert each percentage to grams: 38.7g, 9.70g, and 51.6g.
Next, calculate the number of moles of each element, based on the number of grams given.
C = 3.23 mol
H = 8.91 mol
O = 3.23 mol
Set up the ratio of moles of each element:
C3.34H9.70O3.23. Convert the decimals to whole numbers by dividing by the smallest subscript, 3.23.
The empirical formula is CH3O.
Now, compute the formula mass, which is 31. Finally, divide the molecular mass by the formula mass, 62/31 = 2. Multiple the subscripts by 2 to get the molecular formula.
Answer:
E
Explanation:
A catalyst is a substance which alters the rate of a chemical reaction. We check for the correctness of each of the options as follows:
A. Is wrong.
A catalyst can increase the rate of the forward and backward reaction
B. Is wrong
A catalyst does not slow the reverse reaction only. This particular case is the case of a negative catalyst
C is wrong
A catalyst has no effect on the equilibrium nor the equilibrium constant
D is wrong
Catalyst has no effect on equilibrium value
E is correct
Although Catalysts has no effect on equilibrium or its constant value, it can increase the the rate at which equilibrium is achieved by speeding up the reaction through bringing down the activation energy
Physical chemistry is the area that deals with the
mechanisms, the rate, and the energy transfer that occurs when matter undergoes
a change. So the correct option for the given question is option “B”. Whenever
there is a change in the state of matter, the physical properties definitely
undergo a change. A solid matter will always have a definite shape and volume,
while a liquid has a definite volume but no shape. Gases do not have either definite
volume or shape. Chemical properties might not be affected, but physical
properties are definitely impacted when a matter undergoes change.
The actual formula for volume for a cube is the length multiplied by the width and then multiplied by the height. Since all three measurements are the same, the formula results in the measurement of one side cubed. For the example, 5^3 is 125 cm^3. Multiply the volume by the known density, which is the mass per volume.
