Answer:
B. The number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical formula.
Explanation:
It is not always true that the number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical formula.
The chemical formulae of a compound are of two main types;
- The empirical formula is that which expresses the composition of a compound in the simplest whole number ratio.
- The molecular formula shows the actual ratio of the atoms in a compound.
Sometimes the number of atoms in the molecular and empirical formula can be the same.
Also, the number of atoms in the molecular formula is always greater than that of the empirical formula when they are not the same.
Answer:
44.8 L
Explanation:
Using the ideal gas law equation:
PV = nRT
Where;
P = pressure (atm)
V = volume (L)
n = number of moles (mol)
R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)
T = temperature (K)
At Standard temperature and pressure (STP);
P = 1 atm
T = 273K
Hence, when n = 2moles, the volume of the gas is:
Using PV = nRT
1 × V = 2 × 0.0821 × 273
V = 44.83
V = 44.8 L
Answer:
Mass = 18.9 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of Al₂O₃ formed = ?
Mass of Al = 10.0 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃
Number of moles of Al:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 10.0 g/ 27 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.37 mol
Now we will compare the moles of Al and Al₂O₃.
Al : Al₂O₃
4 : 2
0.37 : 2/4×0.37 = 0.185 mol
Mass of Al₂O₃:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.185 mol × 101.9 g/mol
Mass = 18.9 g
