Answer :

(a) 1.000 g of compound containing carbon and hydrogen is, 0.922 g and 0.0769 g respectively.

(b) There is no other element present in the compound.

Explanation :

(a) Now we have to determine the masses of C and H in the sample.

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

C_xH_y+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

where, 'x' and 'y' are the subscripts of Carbon and hydrogen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of CO_2=3.381g

Mass of H_2O=0.692g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 3.381 g of carbon dioxide, \frac{12}{44}\times 3.381=0.922g of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.692 g of water, \frac{2}{18}\times 0.692=0.0769g of hydrogen will be contained.

Thus, 1.000 g of compound containing carbon and hydrogen is, 0.922 g and 0.0769 g respectively.

(b) Now we have to determine the compound contain any other elements or not.

Mass carbon + Mass of hydrogen = 0.922 g + 0.0769 g = 0.999 g ≈ 1 g

This means that there is no other element present in the compound.

What is Orthocoronavirinae?
Nastasia [14]
The term "orthocoronavirinae" represents a "sub-family" of the coronaviruses. All coronaviruses share the characteristic of being RNA viruses- they are made up of small particles of genetic material called ribonucleic acid. They are also surrounded by a "fatty protein coat" and depend on the organisms they infect (hosts) for their very survival.

If the pressure on a 1.04 L sample of gas is doubled at constant temperature, please compute the new volume of gas: __
natulia [17]

Answer:

0.52 L.

Explanation:

Let P be the initial pressure.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial pressure (P1) = P

Initial volume (V1) = 1.04 L

Final pressure (P2) = double the initial pressure = 2P

Final volume (V2) =?

The new volume (V2) of the gas can be obtained by using the the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P1V1 = P2V2

P × 1.04 = 2P × V2

1.04P = 2P × V2

Divide both side by 2P

V2 = 1.04P /2P

V2 = 0.52 L

Thus, the new volume of the gas is 0.52 L.

How many protons, neutrons, and electrons could an isotope of this atom contain?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The atomic number on the Periodic Table identifies the number of protons in any atom of that element. Copper, atomic number 29, has 29 protons. Finding the atomic number of an element reveals the number of protons.

To find the number of neutrons in the atom, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass.
