A 0.80 L sample of gas has a temperature of 27°C and a pressure of 0.925 atm. How many moles of gas are present?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

n= 0.03 moles

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas law:

PV=nRT

nRT=PV

n= PV/RT

 n: moles

 P: pressure in atm

 V= volume in L

 R= Avogadro's constant = 0.0821

 T= Temperature in K => ºC+273.15

n= (0.925 atm)(0.80 L) / (0.0821)(300.15 K)

n= 0.03 moles

A compound is 52.14% C, 13.13% H, and 34.73% O. What is the empirical formula of the compound?
alina1380 [7]
% H = 100 - ( 52.14 + 34.73 )=13.13 % 

<span>assume 100 g of this compound </span>
<span>mass H = 13.13 g </span>
<span>moles H = 13.13 g / 1.008 g/mol=13 </span>

<span>mass C = 52.14 g </span>
<span>moles C = 52.14 g/ / 12.011 g/mol=4 </span>

<span>mass O = 34.73 g </span>
<span>moles O = 34.73 g/ 15.999 g/mol=2 </span>

<span>the empirical formula is C4H13O2</span>
