Answer:

The compound has a molecular formula of C9H18

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

the compound has an empirical formula of CH2

The molar mass of the compound is 126 g/mol

Molar mass C = 12 g/mol

Molar mass H = 1 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate the molar mass of the empirical formula

We have 1x C and 2x H

Molar mass = 1*12 + 2*1 = 14 g/mol

Step 3: Calculate the molecular formula

126 / 14 = 9

We have to multiply the empirical formula by 9 to have the molecular formula

9*(CH2) = C9H18

The compound has a molecular formula of C9H18

Answer: C10H20

Explanation:

C=12

H=1

(12+1)n=126

13n=126

n=126/13

n=10

Molecular formula

C10H20

<span>[H3O+] = 10^(-pH) = 10^(-4.20) = 6.3 x 10^-5 M

pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 4.20 = 9.80

[OH-] = 10^(-pOH) = 10^(-9.80) = 1.6 x 10^-10 M

A compound with chemical formula na2cx3 has formula mass 106 amu .. what is the atomic mass of element x
maria [59]

The element "X" is "O" (oxygen).

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

Given,

Chemical formula = Na₂CX₃

Formula mass = 106 amu

Molar mass of Na = 23 amu

Molar mass of C = 12 amu

To find,

Element X =?

We will equate the equation as follows,

2(23) + 12 + 3(y) = 106

46 + 12 + 3y =106

58 + 3y = 106

3y = 106 - 58

3y = 48

y = 48/3

y = 16

We know that Oxygen has molecular mass of 16. Therefore the element "X" is "O".

What would be the vapor pressure at 25.0 °c of a solution of 5.00 g of glucose (c6h12o6) in 100.0 g of ethanol (c2h5oh)?
Crank
Use Raoult's Law:
Psolution = (χsolvent) (P°solvent)

24.90 = (x) (25.756)

x = 0.966765 (this is the solvent mole fraction)

χsolute = 1 - 0.966765 = 0.033235

χsolute = 0.03324 (to four sig figs)
