* Need ASAP * Explain the relationship between percent composition, Empirical formula, and molecular formula.

1 answer:

5 0

By dividing the percentage composition with the molar mass of that element we will get the empirical formula. Then using that empirical formula and formula mass we can find the molecular formula.

Explanation:

The chemical properties of any substance are defined obviously by the different types and relative amounts of atoms constituting its primary entities (in case of covalent compounds the primary entities are molecules and ions in the event of ionic compounds).

A percent composition of any compound gives the mass percent of each element present in the compound; in addition to that frequently it is determined experimentally and utilized to derive an empirical formula of any compound. An empirical formula mass of any covalent compound could be comparable with the molar or molecular mass of a compound to acquire a molecular formula.

Citric acid (C6H8O7) is a triprotic acid (It has 3 protons that can dissociate when dissolved) found naturally in lemon juice, a

Gnesinka [82]

Answer: The molarity of citric acid that is commercially available lemon juice is 0.416 M

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is $C_6H_8O_7$

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

$n_1=3\\M_1=?M\\V_1=20.00mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=1.751M\\V_2=14.26mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$3\times M_1\times 20.00=1\times 1.751\times 14.26\\\\M_1=\frac{1\times 1.751\times 14.26}{3\times 20.00}=0.416M$

Hence, the molarity of citric acid that is commercially available lemon juice is 0.416 M

What is the equilibrium equation for the dissociation of formic acid in water? hcooh (aq) + h2o (l) ⇌ h3o+ (aq) + hcoo- (aq)?

Pani-rosa [81]

Formic acid when in water would dissociate into ions just like any acids. It would dissociate into the hydrogen ion and the formate ion. The equilibrium dissociation equation would be written as:

HCOOH (aq) + H2O (l) ⇌ H+ (aq) + HCOO- (aq)

Formic acid is a weak acid which means that when in aqueous solution it does not completely dissociate into its corresponding ions. Only a certain amount that would be dissociated so in the solution there will be HCOOH, HCOO- and H+ molecules. It is also known as Methanoic acid and an important substance for the synthesis of a number of substances. It is naturally occurring in ants.
