A sample of a compound contains 41.33 g of carbon and 8.67 g of hydrogen. The molar mass of the

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

C6H15

Explanation:

First, we calculate the empirical formula as follows:

C = 41.33 g

H = 8.67 g

We convert each mass value to mole by dividing each element by its molar mass (C = 12g/mol, H = 1g/mol)

C = 41.33g ÷ 12g/mol = 3.44mol

H = 8.67g ÷ 1g/mol = 8.67mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (3.44mol)

C = 3.44mol ÷ 3.44mol = 1

H = 8.67mol ÷ 3.44mol = 2.52

We multiply this ratio by 2 to get a simple whole number ratio

C = 1 × 2 = 2

H = 2.52 × 2 = 5.04

Based on this, the whole number ratio of C and H is 2:5, hence, the empirical formula is C2H5.

The molecular mass of the compound is given as 87.18 g/mol, hence, the molecular formula is calculated as follows:

(C2H5)n = 87.18

[12(2) + 1(5)]n = 87.18

[24 + 5]n = 87.18

(29)n = 87.18

n = 87.18 ÷ 29

n = 3.006

Approximately to whole number, n = 3

Hence, the molecular formula of the compound is [C2H5]3

= C6H15

What is the correct answer ?

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

Element with 6s subshell

Explanation:

Reactivity of an element depends on the electronic configuration and position of element in the periodic table as reactivity increases as we go down the periodic table.

This is so because number of shell increases as move down the periodic table and the last electron is further away from the nucleus.

Element with 6s subshell is the largest among 3s and 4s subshell and has more number of shells so it will react more than 3s and 4s subshell.

Hence, the correct answer is "Element with 6s subshell".

Which of the following are diatomic elements? CHECK ALL THAT APPLY!

Komok [63]

Answer: This is a list of the seven diatomic elements. The seven diatomic elements are:

Hydrogen (H2)

Nitrogen (N2)

Oxygen (O2)

Fluorine (F2)

Chlorine (Cl2)

Iodine (I2)

Bromine (Br2)

All of these elements are nonmetals, since the halogens are a special type of nonmetallic element. Bromine is a liquid at room temperature, while the other elements all gases under ordinary conditions. As the temperature is lowered or pressure is increased, the other elements become diatomic liquids.

Astatine (atomic number 85, symbol At) and tennessine (atomic number 117, symbol Ts) are also in the halogen group and may form diatomic molecules. However, some scientists predict tennessine may behave more like a noble gas.

While only these seven elements routinely form diatomic molecules, other elements can form them. However, diatomic molecules formed by other elements are not very stable, so their bonds are easily broken.

How to Remember the Diatomic Elements

The elements ending with "-gen" including halogens form diatomic molecules. An easy-to-remember mnemonic for the diatomic elements is: Have No Fear Of Ice Cold Beer
