The thing that they have in common is that they are all non metals
Answer:
B. The carbons on either side of the double bond are Pointed in opposite directions
Answer:
Explanation:
The first step in this reaction is the<u> converstion from Kg</u> of 
<u>to</u> <u>grams</u> of 
.
Then we can calculate the <u>percentage</u> of in the sample:
Gas to solid ( a ) is correct i think
Q1)
firstly we need to determine the empirical formula of the compound. empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components in the compound.
percentages of the elements have been given, so lets assume we are calculating for a compound of 100g
C H O
mass 63.13 g 8.830 g 28.03 g
molar mass 12 g/mol 1 g/mol 16 g/mol
number of moles 63.13/12 8.830/1 28.03/16
5.26 8.830 1.75
divide by the smallest number of moles
5.26/1.75 8.830/1.75 1.75/1.75
= 3.01 = 5.04 =1
rounded off to the nearest whole numbers
C - 3
H - 5
O - 1
therefore empirical formula = C₃H₅O
Q2)
we have to next determine the molecular formula of the compound
molecular formula gives the actual composition of elements in the compound.
since we know the empirical formula and molecular mass, we can find how many empirical units are in the molecular formula.
mass of empirical unit = Cx3 + Hx5 + Ox1
= 12 g/mol x 3 + 1g/mol x 5 + 16 g/mol x 1
= 36 + 5 + 16 = 57 g/mol
the molecular mass = 228 g/mol
then number of empirical units in the molecular formula = 228 / 57 = 4
therefore there are 4 empirical units
then the molecular formula = 4 x empirical formula =4 (C₃H₅O)
molecular formula = C₁₂H₂₀O₄
