Fumaric acid, which occurs in many plants, contains, by mass, 41.4% carbon, 3.47% hydrogen, and 55.1% oxygen. The molecular mass
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

C = 41.4/12 = 3.43

H = 3.47/1 = 3.47

O = 55.1/16 =3.44

CHO is the skeletal formula (divide each by the lowest number above). The results are close enough to 1 to be 1.

(CHO)_x = 116

C + H + O = 29

(29) _ x = 116

x = 116/29

x = 4

So there area 4 carbons 4 hydrogens and 4 oxygens.

The correct formula is C4H4O4

How can the speed of solvent molecules be slowed down?
Darina [25.2K]

Explanation:

The speed of molecules increases when temperature is increased as it will result in more number of collisions between the molecules. Thus, there will be  increase in kinetic energy of molecules and increase in the speed of solvent molecules.

Whereas on decreasing the temperature, the kinetic energy of molecules will decrease. This will result in less number of collisions between the molecules. Therefore, the speed of solvent molecules will slow down.

An unknown compound contains 75.69% carbon, 8.80% hydrogen, and 15.51% oxygen by mass. A mass spectrometry analysis reveals that
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Molecular formula is C₂₆H₃₆O₄

Explanation:

The compound is 75.69 % C, 8.80 % H and 15.51 % O. This data means, that in 100 g of compound we have 75.69 g, 15.51 g and 8.80 g of, C, O and H, respectively. We know the molar mass of the compound, so we can work to solve the moles of each element.

In 100 g of compound we have 75.69 g C, 15.51 g O and 8.80 g H

In 412 g of compound we would have:

(412 . 75.69) / 100 = 311.8 of C

(412 . 15.51) / 100 = 63.9 g of O

(412 . 8.80) / 100 = 36.2 g of H

Now, we can determine the moles of each, that are contained in 1 mol of compound.

312 g / 12 g/mol 26 C

64 g / 16 g/mol = 4 O

36 g / 1 g/mol = 36 H

Molecular formula is C₂₆H₃₆O₄
