Determine the empirical formula of a compound containing 48.38 grams of carbon, 6.74 grams of hydrogen, and 53.5 grams of oxygen

Darya [45]

Answer: The empirical formula of the compound becomes $CH_2O$

Explanation:

The empirical formula is the chemical formula of the simplest ratio of the number of atoms of each element present in a compound.

We are given:

Mass of C = 48.38 g

Mass of H = 6.74 g

Mass of O = 53.5 g

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass. The equation used is:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ ......(1)

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Molar mass of C = 12 g/mol

Molar mass of H = 1 g/mol

Molar mass of O = 16 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of C}=\frac{48.38g}{12g/mol}=3.023 mol$

$\text{Moles of H}=\frac{6.74g}{1g/mol}=6.74 mol$

$\text{Moles of O}=\frac{53.5g}{1g/mol}=3.34 mol$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

Calculating the mole fraction of each element by dividing the calculated moles by the least calculated number of moles that is 3.023 moles

$\text{Mole fraction of C}=\frac{3.023}{3.023}=1$

$\text{Mole fraction of H}=\frac{6.74}{3.023}=2.23\approx 2$

$\text{Mole fraction of O}=\frac{3.34}{3.023}=1.105\approx 1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 1 : 2 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula of the compound becomes $CH_2O$

Suppose that CO2 in the atmosphere was held at a constant, natural level for a few thousand years. Then, CO2 was added to double

MissTica

Answer:

temperature before the increase in CO2 was a few degrees lower than temperature after the increase.

Explanation:

CO2 in the atmosphere has the property of trapping heat by absorbing it. So, with increase in the level of CO2 in the atmosphere the more heat will be absorbed by it and hence the temperature before the increase in CO2 was a few degrees lower than temperature after the increase.

Level of CO2 ∝ Temperature of the Earth
