Answer:

d. 97.60 g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of formaldehyde = 3.25moles

  Ratio:

                 C               H              O

                  1                2               1

Unknown:

Mass of this sample  = ?

Solution:

The empirical formula of a compound is its simplest formula. It is the simplest whole number ratio of the atoms in a given substance.

The molecular formula is the actual formula of the compound.

 Since the molecular and empirical formula are the same here, the formula of the compound is;

                   CH₂O

To find the mass of the formaldehyde, use the expression below;

        Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

             molar mass of CH₂O = 12 + 2(1) + 16  = 30g/mol

      Mass  = 3.25 x 30  = 97.5g

The combustion of 0.570 g of benzoic acid (ΔHcomb = 3,228 kJ/mol; MW = 122.12 g/mol) in a bomb calorimeter increased the tempera
torisob [31]

Answer:

The temperature change from the combustion of the glucose is 6.097°C.

Explanation:

Benzoic acid;

Enthaply of combustion of benzoic acid = 3,228 kJ/mol

Mass of benzoic acid = 0.570 g

Moles of benzoic acid = \frac{0.570 g}{122.12 g/mol}=0.004667 mol

Energy released by 0.004667 moles of benzoic acid on combustion:

Q=3,228 kJ/mol \times 0.004667 mol=15.0668 kJ=15,066.8 J

Heat capacity of the calorimeter = C

Change in temperature of the calorimeter = ΔT = 2.053°C

Q=C\times \Delta T

15,066.8 J=C\times 2.053^oC

C=7,338.92 J/^oC

Glucose:

Enthaply of combustion of glucose= 2,780 kJ/mol.

Mass of glucose=2.900 g

Moles of glucose = \frac{2.900 g}{180.16 g/mol}=0.016097 mol

Energy released by the 0.016097 moles of calorimeter  combustion:

Q'=2,780 kJ/mol \times 0.016097 mol=44.7491 kJ=44,749.1 J

Heat capacity of the calorimeter = C (calculated above)

Change in temperature of the calorimeter on combustion of glucose = ΔT'

Q'=C\times \Delta T'

44,749.1 J=7,338.92 J/^oC\times \Delta T'

\Delta T'=6.097^oC

The temperature change from the combustion of the glucose is 6.097°C.
