Vlada [557]

According to molecular orbital theory, regions of wave function with highest probability of finding electrons are areas with constructive interference.

An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle that can exist either free or bound to an atom (not bound). A bound electron is one of the three primary types of particles that make up an atom, along with protons and neutrons. Protons, neutrons, and electrons combined make up the atom's nucleus. A proton's positive charge balances an electron's negative charge. When an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, it is said to be in a neutral state. Electrons are distinct from other particles in a number of ways. They have a much lower mass, are found outside the nucleus, and exhibit both wave- and particle-like characteristics. The electron is a basic particle.

A 13.30 gram sample of an organic compound containing C, H and O is analyzed by combustion analysis and 13.00 grams of CO2 and 2

a_sh-v [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is $CHO_2$ and $C_2H_2O_4$

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=13.00g$

Mass of $H_2O=2.662g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

<u>For calculating the mass of carbon:</u>

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 13.00 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 13.00=3.54g$ of carbon will be contained.

<u>For calculating the mass of hydrogen:</u>

In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 2.662 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 2.662=0.296g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (13.30) - (3.54 + 0.296) = 9.464 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

<u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{3.54g}{12g/mole}=0.295moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.296g}{1g/mole}=0.296moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{9.465g}{16g/mole}=0.603moles$

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.295 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.295}{0.295}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.296}{0.295}=1$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.603}{0.295}=2.044\approx 2$

<u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 1 : 1 : 2

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $CHO_2$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

$n=\frac{\text{Molecular mass}}{\text{Empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 90.04 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 45 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{90.04g/mol}{45g/mol}=2$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(1\times 2)}H_{(1\times 2)}O_{(2\times 2)}=C_2H_2O_4$

Hence, the empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is $CHO_2$ and $C_2H_2O_4$

What is the hydronium ion concentration of a 0.100 M acetic acid solution with Ka = 1.8 × 10-5? The equation for the dissociatio

evablogger [386]

Answer:

1.3×10⁻³ M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the dissociation reaction of acetic acid:

$CH_3CO_2H(aq) + H_2O(l) \rightleftharpoons H_3O^+(aq) + CH_3CO_2^-(aq)$

We can write the law of mass action for it:

$Ka=\frac{[H_3O^+][CH_3CO_2^-]}{[CH_3CO_2H]}$

Of course, excluding the water as heterogeneous substances are not included. Then, in terms of the change $x$ due to the dissociation extent, we are able to rewrite it as shown below:

$1.8x10^{-5}=\frac{x*x}{0.100-x}$

Thus, via the quadratic equation or solve, we obtain the following solutions:

$x_1=-0.00135M\\x_2=0.00133M$

Obviously, the solution is 0.00133M which match with the hydronium concentration, thus, answer is: 1.3×10⁻³ M in scientific notation.

Regards.

Which of the following statements about the carbon cycle is NOT true?

nalin [4]

Answer:

Plants consume carbon through transpiration

Explanation:

In transpiration, plants lose water vapor through the stomata in their leaves. No carbon is involved in transpiration, which has an outbound direction. Nothing can be consumed through the stomata when vapor is going out of the plant. It´s like trying to get in through the exit.
