I believe here is the right question, so will just ignore the rest of the junk information from the previous message

The compound known as butylated hydroxytoluene, abbreviated as BHT, contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. A 3.001 g sample of BHT was combusted in an oxygen rich environment to produce 8.990 g of CO2(g) and 2.944 g of H2O(g). Insert subscripts below to appropriately display the empirical formula of BHT

Answer:

C_{15}H_{24}0

Explanation:

A 3.001 g sample of BHT was combusted in an oxygen rich environment to produce 8.990 g of CO2(g) and 2.994 g of H2O(g).

If all the carbon in BHT is present in CO_2 and also, all the hydrogen in BHT is  present in H_2O, Then we can determine for the corresponding numbers of moles of Carbon(C) and Hydrogen (H) respectively as:

moles of  CO_2 = 8.990 g*(\frac{1mole}{44.01g})

                       =  0.2043 moles

∴ moles of C =  0.2043 moles

moles of H_2O = 2.944 g *(\frac{1mole}{18.01g} )

                       = 0.1635 moles

∴ moles of H = 2 × 0.1635 moles

                      = 0.327 moles

Since number of moles= \frac{mass}{molarmass}

number of moles of H =  0.327 moles

molar mass of H = 1.008 g/mol

∴  mass of H in the sample = 0.327 moles × 1.008 g/mol

                                             = 0.329616g

                                             

mass of C in the sample can be calculated as = 0.2043 moles × (\frac{12.01g}{1 mole} )

= 2.453643 g

mass of C+H in the sample = 2.453643g + 0.329616g

= 2.783259 g

mass of O can be calculated as = 3.001 g - 2.783259 g

= 0.217741 g

∴ moles of O = 0.217741g × (\frac{1mole}{16.0g})

= 0.0136 moles

Now, since; we've gotten our data, we can now proceed to calculate for the empirical formula.

C                                          H                                    O

0.2043                                0.327                             0.0136

Dividing by the least number (0.0136) , we have :

\frac{0.2043}{0.0136}                                     \frac{0.327}{0.0136}                               \frac{0.0136}{0.0136}

15.02                                      24.04                             1

≅

15                                             24                                  1

Therefore, the empirical formula would be : C_{15}H_{24}0

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

4.5 kilograms of silicon dioxide is required to produce 3.00 kg of SiC.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction between silicon dioxide and carbon at high temperature is given as:

SiO_2+3C\rightarrow SiC+2CO

1 mole silicon dioxide reacts with 3 moles of carbon to give 1 moles of silicon carbide and 2 moles of carbon monoxide.

Mass of SiC = 3.00kg = 3000.00 g

1 kg = 1000 g

Molecular mass of SiC = 40 g/mol

Moles of SiC = \frac{3000.00 g}{40 g/mol}= 75 mol

According to reaction, 1 mole of SiC is produced from 1 mole of silicon dioxide.

Then 75 moles of SiC will be produce from:

\frac{1}{1}\times 75 mol=75 mol of silicon dioxide.

mass of 75 moles of silicon dioxde:

75 mol\times 60 g/mol=4500 g=4.5 kg

4.5 kilograms of silicon dioxide is required to produce 3.00 kg of SiC.

How many molecules are in 41.8 g of sulfuric acid
Anton [14]

Answer

× 10²³ molecules are in 41.8 g of sulfuric acid

Explanation

The first step is to convert 41.8 g of sulfuric acid to moles by dividing the mass of sulfuric acid by its molar mass.

Molar mass of sulfuric acid, H₂SO₄ = 98.079 g/mol

Mole=\frac{Mass}{Molar\text{ }mass}=\frac{41.8\text{ }g}{98.079\text{ }g\text{/}mol}=0.426187053\text{ }mol

Finally, convert the moles of sulfuric acid to molecules using Avogadro's number.

Conversion factor: 1 mole of any substance = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules.

Therefore, 0.426187053 moles of sulfuric acid is equal

\frac{0.426187053\text{ }mol}{1\text{ }mol}\times6.022×10²³\text{ }molecules=2.57\times10^{23}\text{ }molecules

Thus, 2.57 × 10²³ molecules are in 41.8 g of sulfuric acid.

The lab procedure mentions that not all of the oxone may dissolve after being added to the water because the water may be satura
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The answer is (C) There are more solute molecules than water molecules.

Explanation:

A saturated solution is one in which no more solute can be dissolved or disintegrated into the solvent. When or if the ozone  stops being dissolved in the water, it implies that the water has already taken on more ozone molecules than it can contain, meaning there are more solute molecules (ozone molecules) than there are solvent molecules (water molecules).

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

An addition reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

In an addition reaction, two or more molecules come together to form a single product, for example,

C₂H₂ + 2Cl₂ ⟶ C₂H₂Cl₄

This reaction consists of two successive additions. The product of the first reaction becomes a reactant and adds a second molecule of Cl₂ to form C₂H₂Cl₄

    C₂H₂ + Cl₂ ⟶ <em>C₂H₂Cl₂ </em>

<em><u>C₂H₂Cl₂</u></em><u> + Cl₂ ⟶ C₂H₂Cl₄ </u>

 C₂H₂ + 2Cl₂ ⟶ C₂H₂Cl₄
