Answer: The mass percentage of carbon element is 63.57 %, hydrogen element is 5.96 %, nitrogen element is 9.28 % and oxygen element is 21.19 %

Explanation:

We are given:

A chemical compound having chemical formula of $C_8H_9NO_2$ . This compound is made by the combination of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen elements.

1 mole of acetaminophen contains 8 moles of carbon atom, 9 moles of hydrogen atom, 1 mole of nitrogen atom and 2 moles of oxygen atom

Mass of carbon element = $(8\times 12)=96g/mol$

Mass of hydrogen element = $(9\times 1)=9g/mol$

Mass of nitrogen element = $(1\times 14)=14g/mol$

Mass of oxygen element = $(2\times 16)=32g/mol$

Mass of the compound = 151 g/mol

To calculate the percentage composition of an element in a compound, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ composition of an element}=\frac{\text{Mass of element}}{\text{Mass of compound}}\times 100$ ........(1)

For carbon element:

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\% \text{ composition of carbon element}=\frac{96}{151}\times 100\\\\\% \text{ composition of carbon element}=63.57\%$

For hydrogen element:

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\% \text{ composition of hydrogen element}=\frac{9}{151}\times 100\\\\\% \text{ composition of hydrogen element}=5.96\%$

For nitrogen element:

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\% \text{ composition of nitrogen element}=\frac{14}{151}\times 100\\\\\% \text{ composition of nitrogen element}=9.28\%$

For oxygen element:

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\% \text{ composition of oxygen element}=\frac{32}{151}\times 100\\\\\% \text{ composition of oxygen element}=21.19\%$

Hence, the mass percentage of carbon element is 63.57 %, hydrogen element is 5.96 %, nitrogen element is 9.28 % and oxygen element is 21.19 %

Express each of the following answers in the IUPAC format. Do not include any capitals or spaces in your name. Separate multiple

lorasvet [3.4K]

The full question is shown in the image attached

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In naming an alkane, the first thing we do is to obtain the parent chain by counting the number of carbon atoms in the chain.

When we obtain that, then we identify the substituents and number them in such a way that they have the lowest numbers. The compounds shown have the following names according to the order in which the structures appear in the image attached;

1. 2-methyl propane

2. 2,4-dimethyl heptane

3. 2,2,3,3-tetramethyl butane

4. 5-ethyl-2,4-dimethyl octane
