Answer:
Molecular mass
Explanation:
Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.
Thus,
Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass
Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...
Thus if the molecular mass is known, then we can find the value of n which results to molecular formula.
Answer:
The answer to your question is C₂HO₃
Explanation:
Data
Hydrogen = 3.25%
Carbon = 19.36%
Oxygen = 77.39%
Process
1.- Write the percent as grams
Hydrogen = 3.25 g
Carbon = 19.36 g
Oxygen = 77.39 g
2.- Convert the grams to moles
1 g of H ----------------- 1 mol
3,25 g of H ------------- x
x = (3.25 x 1) / 1
x = 3.25 moles
12 g of C ---------------- 1 mol
19.36 g of C ---------- x
x = (19.36 x 1) / 12
x = 1.61 moles
16g of O --------------- 1 mol
77.39 g of O --------- x
x = (77.39 x 1)/16
x = 4.83
3.- Divide by the lowest number of moles
Carbon = 3.25/1.61 = 2
Hydrogen = 1.61/1.61 = 1
Oxygen = 4.83/1.61 = 3
4.- Write the empirical formula
C₂HO₃
Answer:
mass of X extracted from the aqueous solution by 50 cm³ of ethoxy ethane = 3.33 g
Explanation:
The partition coefficient of X between ethoxy ethane (ether) and water, K is given by the formula
K = concentration of X in ether/concentration of X in water
Partition coefficient, K(X) between ethoxy ethane and water = 40
Concentration of X in ether = mass(g)/volume(dm³)
Mass of X in ether = m g
Volume of ether = 50/1000 dm³ = 0.05 dm³
Concentration of X in ether = (m/0.05) g/dm³
Concentration of X in water = mass(g)/volume(dm³)
Mass of X in water left after extraction with ether = (5 - m) g
Volume of water = 1 dm³
Concentration of X in water = (5 - m/1) g/dm³
Using K = concentration of X in ether/concentration of X in water;
40 = (m/0.05)/(5 - m)
(m/0.05) = 40 × (5 - m)
(m/0.05) = 200 - 40m
m = 0.05 × (200 - 40m)
m = 10 - 2m
3m = 10
m = 10/3
m = 3.33 g of X
Therefore, mass of X extracted from the aqueous solution by 50 cm³ of ethoxy ethane = 3.33 g
