CxHy + O2 --> x CO2 + y/2 H2O
Find the moles of CO2 : 18.9g / 44 g/mol = .430 mol CO2 = .430 mol of C in compound
Find the moles of H2O: 5.79g / 18 g/mol = .322 mol H2O = .166 mol of H in compound
Find the mass of C and H in the compound:
.430mol x 12 = 5.16 g C
.166mol x 1g = .166g H
When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.
Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).
In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).
Answer:
"Electronegativity" is the atom's ability to chemically bond with another atom.
Explanation:
Electronegativity is the ability of the atom to attract the electrons towards another atom to it, these two atoms are associated through a bond. The phenomena is based on the atom's ionization energy and the electron affinity. The formation of the chemical bond takes place when the atoms share the electrons they have in outer shells. In other words we can say two atoms fuse together to form chemical bond.
Answer:
Mass = 199.21 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Moles of HCl = 3.59 mol
Mass of CaCl₂ = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2HCl + Ca(OH)₂ → CaCl₂ + 2H₂O
we will compare the moles of HCl with CaCl₂ from balanced chemical equation:
HCl : CaCl₂
2 : 1
3.59 : 1/2×3.59 = 1.795
3.59 moles of HCl will produced 1.795 moles of CaCl₂.
Mass of CaCl₂.
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 1.795 mol × 110.98 g/mol
Mass = 199.21 g
