CH4 is an emprirical formula as it shows the simplest ratio of the numbers of different atoms present in the molecule. The empirical formula for CH4 is also the same as the molecular formula.
The other compunds can be simplified so they are not the empirical formula of compounds.
Hope this helps :).
Answer:
9.6 moles O2
Explanation:
I'll assume it is 345 grams, not gratis, of water. Hydrogen's molar mass is 1.01, not 101.
The molar mass of water is 18.0 grams/mole.
Therefore: (345g)/(18.0 g/mole) = 19.17 or 19.2 moles water (3 sig figs).
The balanced equation states that: 2H20 ⇒ 2H2 +02
It promises that we'll get 1 mole of oxygen for every 2 moles of H2O, a molar ratio of 1/2.
get (1 mole O2/2 moles H2O)*(19.2 moles H2O) or 9.6 moles O2
The HCl added = 1.25 moles
and the moles of Na2HPO4 = 1 mole
Now when acid is added in the given solution of Na2HPO4
One mole of H+ will react with one mole of Na2HPO4 to given one mole of NaH2PO4
Na2HPO4 + H+ ---> NaH2PO4
Now this one mole formed NaH2PO4 will further react with 0.25 moles of H+ left to form 0.25 moles of H3PO4 and 0.75 moles of NaH2PO4 will remain in the solution
So this will result into formation of a buffer of phosphoric acid and NaH2PO4
NaH2PO4 + H+ ---> H3PO4
pKa of H3PO4 = 2.1
so pH = pKa + log [salt] / [acid] = 2.1 + log [0.75 / 0.25] = 2.58
so the pH will be in between 2.1 to 7.2
It well be 9025 because it will dissolve in 0.8 hcl soluiton
