Answer:

The sum of the coefficients in the balanced equation is 11

Explanation:

A reaction where an organic compound reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water is called combustion.

The balance reaction of combustion for methanol is:

2CH₃OH (l) + 3O₂(g) →  2CO₂(g)  +  4H₂O (g)

Coefficients from stoichiometry are 2, 3, 2 and 4

Sum =  2 + 3 + 2 + 4 = 11

arlik [135]

Answer:

HgO (empirical formula)

Explanation:

4.08 - 3.78 = 0.3g (oxygen)

(\frac{4.08}{201})   \:  \:  \:  (\frac{0.3}{16} )

0.02 : 0.02

0.02/0.02 : 0.02/0.02

1 : 1 (ratio)

HgO ( empirical formula)

2HgO ----> 2Hg + O2 ( your equation correct)

How many molecules of CBr4 are in 250 grams of CBr4
Kazeer [188]

Answer:- 4.54*10^2^3 molecules.

Solution:- The grams of tetrabromomethane are given and it asks to calculate the number of molecules.

It is a two step unit conversion problem. In the first step, grams are converted to moles on dividing the grams by molar mass.

In second step, the moles are converted to molecules on multiplying by Avogadro number.

Molar mass of CBr_4  = 12+4(79.9)  = 331.6 g per mol

let's make the set up using dimensional analysis:

250g(\frac{1mol}{331.6g})(\frac{6.022*10^2^3molecules}{1mol})

= 4.54*10^2^3 molecules

So, there will be 4.54*10^2^3 molecules in 250 grams of CBr_4 .
