Answer:

The empirical formula is CH6N2

Explanation:

A compound containing only C, H, and N yields the following data. Complete combustion of 35.0 mg of the compound produced 33.5 mg of CO2 and 41.1 mg of H2O. What is the empirical formula of the compound

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the compound = 35.0 mg = 0.035 grams

Mass of CO2 = 33.5 mg = 0.0335 grams

Mass of H2O = 41.1 mg = 0.0411 grams

Molar mass CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

Molar mass H2O = 18.02 g/mol

Molar mass C = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass O = 16.0 g/mol

Molar mass H = 1.01 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles CO2

Moles CO2 = 0.0335 grams / 44.01 g/mol

Moles CO2 = 7.61 *10^-4 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles C

For 1 mol CO2 we have 1 mol C

For 7.61 *10^-4 moles CO2 we have 7.61 *10^-4 moles C

Step 4: Calculate mass C

Mass C = 7.61 *10^-4 moles * 12.01 g/mol

Mass C = 0.00914 grams = 9.14 mg

Step 5: Calculate moles H2O

Moles H2O = 0.0411 grams / 18.02 g/mol

Moles H2O = 0.00228 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles H

For 1 mol H2O we have 2 moles H

For 0.00228 moles H2O we have 2* 0.00228 = 0.00456 moles H

Step 7: Calculate mass H

Mass H = 0.00456 moles * 1.01 g/mol

Mass H = 0.00461 grams = 4.61 mg

Step 8: Calculate mass N

Mass N = 35.0 mg - 9.14 - 4.61 = 21.25 mg = 0.02125 grams

Step 9: Calculate moles N

Moles N = 0.02125 grams / 14.0 g/mol

Moles N = 0.00152 moles

Step 10: Calculate the mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moes

C: 0.000761 moles / 0.000761 moles= 1

H:  0.00456 moles / 0.000761 moles = 6

N: 0.00152 moles  / 0.000761 moles = 2

For every C atom we have 6 H atoms and 2 N atoms

The empirical formula is CH6N2

Calculate the theoretical yield for the bromination of both stilbenes
podryga [215]

Answer:

cinnamic acid - 150 mg

cis-stilbene - 100 μL

trans- stilbene - 100 mg

pyridinium tribromide - 200-385 mg

For this data:

moles of cinnamic acid = 0.150 g/148.16 g/mol = 0.001 mols

Theoretical mass of dibromoproduct formed = 0.001 mol x 307.97 g/mol = 0.312 g

cis-stilbene (100 ul = 0.1 ml)

moles of cis-stilbene = 0.1 ml x 1.01 g/mol/180.25 g/mol = 0.00056 mols

Theoretical mass of dibromoproduct formed = 0.00056 mol x 340.05 g/mol = 0.19 g

trans-stilbene

moles of tran-stilbene = 0.1 g/180.25 g/mol = 0.00055 mols

Theoretical mass of dibromoproduct formed = 0.00055 mol x 340.05 g/mol = 0.19 g

Calculate moles of oxygen atoms in 0.68mol of KMnO4
Dominik [7]
Alright, so that means we have 0.68 mol of the compound


For each 1 mol of the compound, we have 4*1 oxygens (because there are four oxygens in the formula)
Therefore for each 0.68 mol of the compound, we have 4*0.68 moles of oxygen!
