You need to use the % information to determine the empirical formula of the compound first.

The empirical formula is the simplest ratio of atoms in the molecule.

Then use the rest of the data to determine moles of gas, and use this to determine molar mass of gas...

Empirical formula calculations:

Assume you have 100 g, calculate the moles of each atom in the 100 g

moles = mass / molar mass
molar mass C = 12.01 g/mol
molar mass H = 1.008 g/mol
molar mass O = 16.00 g/mol

C = 64.9 % = 64.6 g
H = 13.5 % = 13.5 g
O = 21.6 % = 21.6 g

moles C = 64.6 g / 12.01 g/mol = 5.38 mol
moles H = 13.5 g / 1.008 g/mol = 13.39 mol
moles O = 21.6 g / 16.00 g/mol = 1.35 mol

So ratio of C : H : O
is 5.38 mol : 13.39 mol : 1.35 mol

Divide each number in the ratio by the lowest number to get the simplest whole number ratio

(5.38 / 1.35) : (13.39 / 1.35) : (1.35 / 1.35)

4 : 10 : 1

empirical formula is
C4H10O

Finding moles and molar mass calcs

Now, you know that at 120 deg C and 750 mmHg that 1.00L compound weighs 2.30 g.

We can use this information to determine the molar mass of the gas after first working out how many moles the are in the 1.00 L

PV = nRT
P = pressure = 750 mmHg
V = volume = 1.00 L
n = moles (unknown)
T = temp in Kelvin (120 deg C = (273.15 + 120) Kelvin)
- T = 393.15 Kelvin
R = gas constant, which is 62.363 mmHg L K^-1 mol^-1 (when your P is in mmHg and volume is in L)

n = PV / RT
n = (750 mmHg x 1.00 L) / (62.363mmHg L K^-1 mol^-1 x 393.15 K)
n = 0.03059 moles of gas

We know moles = 0.03509 and mass = 2.30 g
So we can work out molar mass of the gas

moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore molar mass = mass / moles
molar mass = 2.30 g / 0.03059 mol
= 75.19 g/mol

Determine molecular formula

So empirical formula is C4H10O
molar mass = 75.19 g/mol

To find the molecular formula you divide the molar mass by the formula weight of the empirical formula...
This tells you how many times the empirical formula fits into the molecular formula. Tou then multiply every atom in the empirical formula by this number

formula weight C4H10O = 74.12 g/mol

Divide molar mass by formula weight empirical
75.15 g/mol / 74.12 g/mol
= 1
(It doesn't matter that the number don't quite match, they rarely do in this type of calc (although I could have made a slight error somewhere) but the numbers are very close, so we can say 1.)

The empirical formula only fits into the molar mass once,

molecular formula thus = empirical formula

C4H10O

Therefore, the molecular formula of the compound is C4H10O.

Be sure to answer all parts. The percent by mass of bicarbonate (HCO3−) in a certain Alka-Seltzer product is 32.5 percent. Calcu

pochemuha

Answer : The volume of $CO_2$ will be, 514.11 ml

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

$HCO_3^-+HCl\rightarrow Cl^-+H_2O+CO_2$

First we have to calculate the mass of $HCO_3^-$ in tablet.

$\text{Mass of }HCO_3^-\text{ in tablet}=32.5\% \times 3.79g=\frac{32.5}{100}\times 3.79g=1.23175g$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $HCO_3^-$ .

Molar mass of $HCO_3^-$ = 1 + 12 + 3(16) = 61 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }HCO_3^-=\frac{\text{Mass of }HCO_3^-}{\text{Molar mass of }HCO_3^-}=\frac{1.23175g}{61g/mole}=0.0202moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $CO_2$ .

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $HCO_3^-$ react to give 1 mole of $CO_2$

So, 0.0202 mole of $HCO_3^-$ react to give 0.0202 mole of $CO_2$

The moles of $CO_2$ = 0.0202 mole

Now we have to calculate the volume of $CO_2$ by using ideal gas equation.

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of gas = 1.00 atm

V = volume of gas = ?

T = temperature of gas = $37^oC=273+37=310K$

n = number of moles of gas = 0.0202 mole

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mole.K

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get :

$(1.00atm)\times V=0.0202 mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (310K)$

$V=0.51411L=514.11ml$

Therefore, the volume of $CO_2$ will be, 514.11 ml

Match the following. 1. A mixture that does not have a uniform composition and the individual components remain distinct. polar

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. A mixture that does not have a uniform composition and the individual components remain distinct.

HETEROGENEOUS

An heterogeous mixture is a mixture with components in different phases.

2. A mixture that does have a uniform composition throughout and is always in the same state.

HOMOGENOUS

Homogenous mixtures have just one phase that is uniform all through.

3. A substance that will not dissolve in a solvent.

INSOLUBLE

When a solute cannot dissolve in a solvent to form a solution, we say it is insoluble.

4. A homogeneous mixture

SOLUTION

Solutions are made up of homogenous mixtures solute and solvent.

5. A molecule with no internal charge variation due to bonding.

NON-POLAR

Even distribution of charges especially between species whose electronegativity difference is 0 would lead to the formation of a non-polar compound. Here,

6. A molecule with an uneven distribution of charge due to unequal sharing of electrons during bonding

POLAR

Unequal sharing of electrons forms a polar compound. The more electronegative attracts the shared electron to itself and there is separation of charges. This leads to polarity.

7. A solution which has dissolved as much solute as it can at a particular temperature.

SATURATED

A saturated solution cannot dissolve more solute beacuse it contains enough solute as it can dissolve at a temperature.

8. A solution which is still able to dissolve solute.

UNSATURATED

An unsaturated solution is able to dissolve more solute.

How many moles are in 16.94 g of H2O?

Nitella [24]

Answer:

0.9401 mol H₂O

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Atomic Structure

Reading a Periodic Table
Using Dimensional Analysis

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

16.94 g H₂O

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

$16.94 \ g \ H_2O(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2O}{18.02 \ g \ H_2O} )$ = 0.940067 mol H₂O

Step 4: Check

We are given 4 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.

0.940067 mol H₂O ≈ 0.9401 mol H₂O
