Solubility of a compound in water can be referred to as the amount of the compound that can be dissolved in 1 L of the solvent (water) at any given temperature. Solubility of a compound can be expressed in the units of g/L or mg/L.

Given that the solubility of calcium carbonate in water = 14 mg/L

We have to calculate the volume of water that can dissolve 11 g of calcium carbonate.

Converting 11 g calcium carbonate to mg:

11g *\frac{1000mg}{1g} =11,000 mg

Volume of water that would dissolve 11000 mg calcium carbonate

                             = 11000 mg CaCO_{3}*\frac{1L}{14 mg}

                             =785.7 L

Rounding the volume 785.7 L to two significant figures, we get 790 L water.

Therefore, we would need 790 L water to completely dissolve 11 g of calcium carbonate.

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

C3H4O

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound;

Molar mass CO2 = 44.01  

Mass of CO2 produced = 2.053 g

Mass of carbon in original sample = 12.01/44.01 × 2.053

                                                           = 0.5603g  

Molar mass H2O = 18  

Mass of H in original sample = 2/18 ×0.5601

                                               = 0.0622  g

Thus; original sample contained 0.5603g C and 0.0622g H. The balance of the sample was O  

Mass of O = 0.8715 - (0.5603 + 0.0622) = 0.249g  

The mole ratio of C:H:O  will be;

Moles C = 0.5603/12 = 0.0467  

Moles H = 0.0622  

Moles O = 0.249/16 = 0.01556  

C:H:O = 0.0467:0.0622:0.01556  

Divide through by 0.01556:  

C:H:O = 3:4:1  

Empirical formula is thus C3H4O

Is the boiling point of oxygen higher than nitrogen's
PSYCHO15rus [73]
The boiling point of oxygen is higher than nitrogen's boiling The reason the boiling point of O2 is higher is not because of increased van der Waals interactions, but simple physics. The mass of a molecule of O2 is greater than that of a molecule of N2, so the molecule of O2 traveling at a speed sufficient to break out of the liquid phase has a greater kinetic energy than an analogous N2 molecule. The net effect is that more energy must be distributed throughout a sample of O2 to achieve a given vapor pressure (in this case equal to atmospheric pressure) than for a sample of N2. More energy means greater temperature.
