A compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of 0.157g of the compound produced 0.213g of CO2 and

0.0310g of H2O. In another experiment, it is found that 0.103g of the compound produces 0.0230g of NH3. What is the empirical formula of the compound?

Answer:

C_{7} H_{5}N_{3}O_{6}

Explanation:

First reaction gives you the number of moles or the mass from Carbon and hydrogen

for carbon:

0,213gCO_{2} .\frac{1molCO_{2}}{44gCO_{2}} .\frac{1molC}{1molCO_{2}} =0.005molC

0.213gCO_{2} .\frac{1molCO_{2}}{44gCO_{2}} .\frac{1molC}{1molCO_{2}} .\frac{12gC}{1molC} = 0.058gC\\

Analogously for hydrogen:

0.0310gH_{2}O have 0.0034gH or 0.0034mol of H

In the second reaction you can obtain the amount of nitrogen as a percentage and find the mass of N in the first sample.

0.023gNH_{3} .\frac{1molNH_{3}}{17gNH_{3}} .\frac{1molN}{1molNH_{3}} .\frac{14gN}{1molN} \frac{100}{0.103gsample} =18.4%N

now

\frac{18.4gN}{100gsample} .0.157gsample=0.0289gN in the first reaction

this is equivalet to 0.002mol of N

with this information you can find the mass of oxygen by matter conservation.

gO=total mass-(gN+gC+gH)=0.157-(0.0289+0.058+0.0034)=0.0666gO

this is equivalent to 0.004molO

finally you divide all moles obtained between the smaller number of mole (this is mol of H)

C\frac{0.0048}{0.0034} H\frac{0.0034}{0.0034} N\frac{0.002}{0.0034} O\frac{0.004}{0.0034} =C_{1.4} HN_{0.6} O_{1.2}

and you can multiply by  5   to obtain: C_{7} H_{5}N_{3}O_{6}

There are 55.0 g of neon gas in a 3.0 L cylinder, the pressure is 4.5 atm what is the temp of the gas
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

60.9 Kelvin

Explanation: First, write out everything that you know. You are tring to find the temperature, so the temperature will be represented by x.

Pressure (P)= 4.5 atm

Volume (V)= 3L

Number of Moles (n)= ?

Gas Consant (R)= 0.0821, if the pressure is in atm, that means r is 0.0821

Temperature (T)= x

We don't have all the information we need to plug the values into the equation. We still need to know how many moles 55.0 grans of neon is.

Ne in Grams= 55

Atomic Mass of Ne= 20.1797

55/20.1797= 2.7  

moles= 2.7

Now that we have all the information we need, plug everying into the equation. In case you don't know, the Ideal Gas Law Equation is PV= nRT.

(4.5)(3) = (2.7)(0.821)x    

x= 60.9

Now you have your temperature! It is 60.9 in Kelvin.

How do the interactions that are broken in water when it is boiled compare with those broken when water is electrolyzed? Boiling
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Boiling water breaks intermolecular attractions and electrolysis breaks covalent bonds.

Explanation:

When water boils, hydrogen bonds are broken between adjacent water molecules. The hydrogen bond is an intermolecular bond between adjacent oxygen and hydrogen atoms of water molecules.  

During electrolysis, water dissociates in the presence of electric current. Here, ions are formed in the process. Therefore, covalent bonds are broken here.
