what is the molecular formula of a compound with an empiricla formula of ch and a molecular mass of 78

Chemistry

Dovator [93]3 years ago

Answer:

C6H6

Explanation:

We can obtain the molecular formula from the empirical formula.

What we need do here is:

(CH)n = 78

The n shows the multiples of both element present in the actual compound. It can be seen that carbon and hydrogen have the same element ratio here. We then use the atomic masses of both elements to get the value of n. The atomic mass of carbon is 12 a.m.u while the atomic mass of hydrogen is 1 a.m.u

(1 + 12)n = 78

13n = 78

n = 78/13 = 6

The molecular formula is

(CH)n = (CH)6 = C6H6

What is atomic mass, atomic number, isotopes and how are all these terms related to each other?
Airida [17]
Atomic mass deals with the number of protons and neutrons added together, atomic number deals with protons only, though isotopes can be explained like this, say you had a hydrogen atom it's one proton and one electron if you add a neutron to it, the hydrogen becomes Deuterium which is a isotope of hydrogen it's the same atom just a neutron added to it for a different atomic mass if only slightly changed

Answer:

1.) 0.1 M

2.) 0.2 M

3.) 1 M

4.) Solution #3 is the most concentrated because it has the highest molarity. This solution has the largest solute to solvent ratio. The more solvent there is, the lower the concentration and molarity.

Explanation:

To find the molarity, you need to (1) convert grams NaOH to moles (via molar mass from periodic table) and then (2) calculate the molarity (via the molarity equation). All of the answers should have 1 sig fig to match the given values.

Molar Mass (NaOH): 22.99 g/mol + 16.00 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol

Molar Mass (NaOH): 39.998 g/mol

4 grams NaOH           1 mole
----------------------  x  ------------------  = 0.1 moles NaOH
                                 39.998 g

1.)

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

Molarity = (0.1 moles) / (1 L)

Molarity = 0.1 M

2.)

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

Molarity = (0.1 moles) / (0.5 L)

Molarity = 0.2 M

3.)

Molarity = moles / volume (L)

Molarity = (0.1 moles) / (0.1 L)

Molarity = 1 M
