Burning a compound of calcium, carbon and nitrogen in oxygen generates calcium oxide (CaO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen di

oxide (NO2). A small sample gives 3.106 g CaO, 2.439 g CO2, and 5.097g NO2. Determine the empirical formula of the compound.

Answer:

CaCN₂

Explanation:

A compound of calcium, carbon and nitrogen CaₐCₓNₙ in oxygen will burning producing:

CaₐCₓNₙ + O₂ → aCaO + xCO₂ + nNO₂

Moles of the oxides CaO, CO₂, NO₂ are:

CaO: 3.106g ₓ (1 mole / 56.08g) = <em>0.0554 moles of CaO = moles of Ca</em>

CO₂: 2.439g ₓ (1mole / 44g) = <em>0.0554 moles CO₂ = moles C</em>

NO₂: 5.097g ₓ (1mole / 46g) = <em>0.111 moles NO₂ = moles N</em>

Empirical formula is the chemical formula that represents the simplest ratio of elements in a compound.

Having as basis 0.0554 moles (The lower number of moles):

0.0554 moles Ca / 0.0554 = 1 Ca

0.0554 moles C / 0.0554 = 1 C

0.111 moles N / 0.0554 = 2N

Thus, the compound CaₐCₓNₙ  has as empirical formula:

Ca₁C₁N₂ = <em>CaCN₂</em>

wel

Answer:

5000kg/m³

Explanation:

density=mass/volume

d=m/v

d=100/20

=5g/cm³

g/cm³*1000=kg/m³

5g/m³*1000=5000kg/m³

Which part of an investigation is only found in an experimental investigation?
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is control group.

Explanation:

A group used in a study or in an experiment, which does not get treatment by the scientists and is used as a foundation to determine the functions of the other tested subjects is known as the control group. The control group is only found in an experimental investigation.  

The group in an experiment, which gets the variable being examined is known as an experimental group. The comparison of an experimental group is done with a control group in order to find the answers in an experiment.

How many moles are in 18.2 g of CO2?<br> 41.4 moles<br> 801 moles<br> 0.414 moles<br> 0 2.42 moles
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

0.414 mole (3 sig. figs.)

Explanation:

Given grams, moles = mass/formula weight

moles in 18.2g CO₂(g) = 18.2g/44g/mole = 0.413636364 mole (calc. ans.)

≅ 0.414 mole (3 sig. figs.)

V = d/t
dangina [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Did you mean: V = d/t a = (V - Vit Average = (V+ + V)/2 with constant acceleration d = Vit + 2 at? Vi = (V2 + 2ad)1/2 =VV2 + 2ad A stick figure throws a ball straight up into the air at 5 m/s. g = -9.81 m/s2 1. How long does it take to reach the top? 2. How long does it take to come back to the level of release? 3. If the hand is 1 m from the ground, how long will it take to hit the ground if the ball is not caught? 4. How high is the ball at the top from the ground? 5. What is the displacement of the ball, if it is caught on return? 6. What is the displacement of the ball to the top from release? 7. What is final velocity when you catch the ball on return to your hand? 8. What is the final velocity as it hits the ground? 9. What is the velocity at the top?

Showing results for V = d/t a = (V - Vil/t Vaverage = (V+ + V)/2 with constant acceleration d = Vit + 2 at? Vi = (V2 + 2ad)1/2 =VV2 + 2ad A stick figure throws a ball straight up into the air at 5 m/s. g = "-9.81" m/s2 1. How long does it take to reach the top? 2. How long does it take to come back to the level of release? 3. If the hand is 1 m from the ground, how long will it take to hit the ground if the ball is not caught? 4. How high is the ball at the top from the ground? 5. What is the displacement of the ball, if it is caught on return? 6. What is the displacement of the ball to the top from release? 7. What is final velocity when you catch the ball on return to your hand? 8. What is the final velocity as it hits the ground? 9. What is the velocity at the top?
