Answer:

The new volume is 7.27 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The initial volume of the balloon = 7.0 L

The pressure = 765 mmHg = 765/760 atm = 1.00658 atm

The pressure drops to 737 mmHg = 737/ 760 atm = 0.969737

The temperature remains constant

Step 2: Calculate the new volume

P1*V1 = P2*V2

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure in the balloon = 765 mmHg

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 7.0L

⇒with P2 = the decreased pressure = 737 mmHg

⇒with V2 = the new volume = TO BE DETERMINED

765 mmHg * 7.0 L = 737 mmHG * V2

V2 = (765 mmHG * 7.0 L) / 737 mmHG

V2 = 7.27 L

The new volume is 7.27 L

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

Which of the temperatures below is most likely to be the boiling point of water at 880 torr?view available hint(s)which of the t
Luden [163]
Boiling point<span>  is the </span>temperature<span> at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the surrounding pressure.

Above boiling point point, liquid get converted into vapour.

Now, boiling point of water is 100 oC at room pressure. Room pressure is equal to 760 torr. Thus, at 100 oC, vapour pressure of water becomes equal to 760 torr.

Now, if external pressure is increased to 880 torr, more heat is to be supplied so that vapour pressure of water equals 880 torr.

So, at 880 torr, boiling point of water will be more than 100 oC. In present case, most like the boiling point of water is equal to 105 oC.
