<span>A compound is found to be 40.0% carbon, 6.7% hydrogen and 53.5% oxygen. Its molecular mass is 60. g/mol.
</span>Q1)
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components making up a compound.
the percentages have been given, therefore we can calculate for 100 g of the compound.
C H O
Mass in 100 g 40.0 g 6.7 g 53.5 g
Molar mass 12 g/mol 1 g/mol 16 g/mol
Number of moles 40.0/12= 3.33 6.7/1 = 6.7 53.5/16 = 3.34
Divide by the least number of moles
3.33/3.33 = 1 6.7/3.33 = 2.01 3.34/3.33 = 1.00
after rounding off
C - 1
H - 2
O - 1
Empirical formula - CH₂O
Q2)
Molecular formula is the actual number of components making up the compound.
To find the number of empirical units we have to find the mass of one empirical unit.
Mass of one empirical unit = CH₂O - 12 + (1x2) + 16 = 30 g
Mass of one mole of compound = 60 g
Number of empirical units = 60 g / 30 g = 2
Therefore molecular formula - 2(CH₂O)
Molecular formula - C₂H₄O₂

Explanation:
We are asked to find the volume of a solution given the moles of solute and molarity.
Molarity is a measure of concentration in moles per liter. It is calculated using the following formula:
We know there are 0.14 moles of potassium chloride (KCl), which is the solute. The molarity of the solution is 1.8 molar or 1.8 moles of potassium chloride per liter.
- moles of solute = 0.14 mol KCl
- molarity= 1.8 mol KCl/ L
- liters of solution=x
Substitute these values/variables into the formula.
We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. First, cross multiply. Multiply the first numerator and second denominator, then the first denominator and second numerator.
Now x is being multiplied by 1.8 moles of potassium chloride per liter. The inverse operation of multiplication is division, so we divide both sides by 1.8 mol KCl/L.
The units of moles of potassium chloride cancel.
The original measurements of moles and molarity have 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the thousandth place. The 7 in the ten-thousandth place tells us to round the 7 up to a 8.
There are approximately <u>0.078 liters of solution.</u>

Explanation:
When we increase the surface area of an object, more atoms are exposed. Since more atoms are exposed, the atoms can react faster, and this is why the rate of a reaction increases when the surface area increases.
For example, lets say we want to heat a potato. If we just put the whole potato in the microwave, it will take a long time for the potato to get thoroughly heated. However, if we chop the potato into smaller pieces, we will observe that it gets heated much faster. This is because we increased the surface area of the potato, which resulted in more potato atoms to be exposed to the heat, and caused the reaction to be faster.
Answer:
The law of conservation of mass states that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.
Explanation:
How does the concept of conservation of mass apply to chemical reactions? the reactants and products have exactly the same atoms. the reactants and products have exactly the same molecules. the change in the amount of matter is equal to the change in energy.
can someone help me with my qustions?
