An unknown compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen (CxHyOz). Combustion of 6.50 g of this compound produced 9.53 g o

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

There were 0.216 moles of oxygen in the sample

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of compound = 6.50 grams

Mass of CO2 = 9.53 grams

Molar mass of CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

Mass of H2O = 3.90 grams

Molar mass H2O = 18.02 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles CO2

Moles CO2 = 9.53 grams / 44.01 g/mol

Moles CO2 = 0.217 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles C

For 1 mol CO2 we have 1 mol C

For 0.217 moles CO2 we have 0.217 moles C

Step 4: Calculate mass C

Mass C = 0.217 moles C *12.01 g/mol

Mass C = 2.61 grams

Step 5: calculate moles H2O

Moles H2O = 3.90 grams / 18.02 g/mol

Moles H2O = 0.216 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles H

In 1 mol H2O we have 2 moles H

In 0.216 moles H2O we have 0.433 moles H

Step 7: Calculate mass H

Mass H = 0.433 moles * 1.01 g/mol

Mass H = 0.437 grams

Step 8: Calculate mass O

Mass O = 6.50 grams - 2.61 grams - 0.437 grams

Mass O = 3.453 grams

Step 9: Calculate moles O

Moles O = 3.453 grams / 16.0 g/mol

Moles O = 0.216 moles

There were 0.216 moles of oxygen in the sample

Balance the following redox equation in acidic solution using the smallest integers possible and select the correct coefficient

romanna [79]

Answer:

Coefficient of $H^{+}(aq)$ is more than 4

Explanation:

Oxidation: $Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)$

Balance charge: $Sn^{2+}(aq)-2e^{-}\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)$ ......(1)

Reduction: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr^{3+}(aq)$

Balance Cr: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)$
Balance O and H in acidic medium: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)$
Balance charge: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)+6e^{-}\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)$ .......(2)

$[3\times Equation-(1)]+Equation(2)$ gives balanced equation:

$3Sn^{2+}(aq)+Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow 3Sn^{4+}(aq)+2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)$

So coefficient of $H^{+}(aq)$ is more than 4
