An organic compound is 61.5% C, 2.56% H and 35.9% N by mass. 2.00 grams of this gas is entered into a 300.0 mL flask and heated

to 228 degrees C. At these conditions, the gas exerts a pressure of 2670 torr. Find the empirical formula.

Answer:

C₄H₂N₂

Explanation:

First we<u> calculate the moles of the gas</u>, using PV=nRT:

P = 2670 torr ⇒ 2670/760 = 3.51 atm

V = 300 mL ⇒ 300/1000 = 0.3 L

T = 228 °C ⇒ 228 + 273.16 = 501.16 K

  • 3.51 atm * 0.3 L = n * 0.082atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 501.16 K
  • n = 0.0256 mol

Now we<u> calculate the molar mass of the compound</u>:

  • 2.00 g / 0.0256 mol = 78 g/mol

Finally we use the percentages given to<em> </em><u>calculate the empirical formula</u>:

  • C ⇒ 78 g/mol * 61.5/100 ÷ 12g/mol = 4
  • H ⇒ 78 g/mol * 2.56/100 ÷ 1g/mol = 2
  • N ⇒ 78 g/mol * 35.9/100 ÷ 14g/mol = 2

So the empirical formula is C₄H₂N₂

The reaction of glucose, c6h12o6, with oxygen produces carbon dioxide and water. what is the sum of the coefficients in the bala
Misha Larkins [42]

The balanced equation for the given reaction:

C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) + 6O₂→ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

So in the balanced equation the coefficients before glucose, oxygen, water and carbon dioxide are 1, 6, 6 and 6 respectively.

Therefore, the sum of the coefficients in the balanced equation

= 1 + 6 + 6 + 6

= 19

The correct answer is 19.

Sodium explodes when it contacts water. If I have a compound that contains sodium, will it explode if it is exposed to water?
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Option D = No, when elements combine to form a new material, they have properties unique to the new materials.

Explanation:

When sodium contact with water it loses its one electron and thus gain positive charge. When there are more sodium atoms present and many atoms do this thus more positive ions are produced and these positive ions repeal each other at high speed and explosion occur.

But when it form compound with other material, it will not showed this behavior.

Example:

Consider the sodium chloride, when it dissolve in water sodium not showed explosion. In sodium chloride sodium already gives its electron to the chlorine and have stable electronic configuration. The sodium present in cationic form. When it dissolve, partial positive charge of water surrounds the Cl⁻ and partial negative charge of water surrounds the Na⁺ ion, ans sodium chloride gets dissolve into water without explosion.

When a pendulum swings, if it is not continuously pushed it will not stop eventually because some of its energy is changed into.
Vladimir79 [104]
Well, there is kinetic energy when the object is in motion. But it will stop eventually because that energy is converted into thermal energy, or heat.
