Find the mass of C in the 2.657 g CO2:
(2.657 g CO2) / (44.01 g/mol) = 0.06037 mol CO2
Since each mole of CO2 also has 1 mole of C, this is equivalent to 0.06037 mol C.
Find the mass of H in the 1.089 g H2O:
(1.089 g H2O) / (18.02 g/mol) = 0.06043 mol H2O
Since 1 mol H2O has 2 mol H, this is equivalent to (0.06043)*2 = 0.1209 mol H.
Taking the ratio of H to C: 0.1209 / 0.06037 = 2.002 ~ 2
Therefore, the empirical formula of isobutylene is CH2.
Answer:
The correct answer is because the molecular structure.
Explanation:
The difficulty of ammonia and methane to be represented on paper is due to the molecular structure. These compounds have a three-dimensional projection with defined angles. Ammonia presents angles of 109.5º between the atom of Nitrogen and those of Oxygen. The ammonia presents 107.8º between the oxygen atoms.
In the methane molecule, there is 109.5º between the hydrogen molecules and the carbon atom. This results in the need for a 3D representation of the molecule.
Have a nice day!
Answer:
200 kPa
(it is actually 199.999, but rounding up it is 200)
hope this helps!
