Which pair shares the same empirical formula?

Chemistry
1 answer:
MissTica3 years ago
6 0

Answer:- 3. CH_3 and C_2H_6

Explanations:- An empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of the moles of atoms present in the compound.

If we simplify the first par formula then they becomes CH_2 and CH. This pair does not share the same empirical formula.

Second pair formulas are already simple and could not be further simplify. Since they are different, it is also not the right option.

Fourth pair has CH and C_2H_4 . C_2H_4 could be simplify to CH_2 . The two formulas are still different and so it is not the right choice.

The only correct one is third pair as one of them is CH_3 and other one is C_2H_6[/tex . [tex]C_2H_6 could be simplify to CH_3 . This pair share the same empirical formula, CH_3 .

Consider the intermediate chemical reactions. 2 equations. First: upper C a (s) plus upper C upper O subscript 2 (g) plus one ha
DochEvi [55]

<u>Answer:</u> When the enthalpy of this overall chemical equation is calculated, the enthalpy of the second intermediate equation is halved and has its sign changed.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation is treated as ordinary algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The overall chemical reaction follows:

CaO(s)+CO_2\rightarrow CaCO_3(s)     \Delta H^o_{rxn}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction are:

(1) Ca(s)+CO_2(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow CaCO_3(s)    \Delta H_1=-812.8kJ  

(2) 2Ca(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CaO(s)     \Delta H_2=-1269kJ

The expression for enthalpy of the reaction follows:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[1\times (\Delta H_1)]+[\frac{1}{2}\times (-\Delta H_2)]

Hence, when the enthalpy of this overall chemical equation is calculated, the enthalpy of the second intermediate equation is halved and has its sign changed.

Translation: Explain the importance of energy levels,
tigry1 [53]

Answer: Formation of a stable Duplet or Octet structure

Explanation:

Energy levels refers to the definite amount of energies that electrons can have when occupying specific orbitals.

Examples are:

Level 1 as in 1s

Level 2 as in 2s, 2p

Level 3 as in 3s 3p 3d

Level 4 as in 4s 4p 4d 4f

Level 5 as in 5s .......

Level 6 as in 6s .........

Electrons can be excited to higher energy levels by absorbing energy from the surroundings during chemical reactions and so forming chemical bonds like ionic, covalent etc.

A perfect example is Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) in Sodium chloride (NaCl)

Sodium has atomic number of 11, so energy level is 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s1

Chlorine has atomic number of 17, so energy level is 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p5

You will notice that the both Na and Cl, has electrons in the energy level 3. Then, the bond formed must be one that lead to the formation of a OCTET structure: as in Na gives off its 3s1 electron TO Cl.

Thus, Cl now becomes 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p6 - an OCTET STRUCTURE (with completely filled outershell and full energy level 3) in NACl.

So, a duplet or Octet structure is the answer
