First, you need to figure out the relative ratios of moles of carbon and hydrogen. You do this by first looking up the atomic weight of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Then you use those atomic weights to calculate the molar masses of H2O and CO2.
Carbon = 12.0107
Hydrogen = 1.00794
Oxygen = 15.999
Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488
Molar mass of CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087
Now using the calculated molar masses, determine how many moles of each product was generated. You do this by dividing the given mass by the molar mass.
moles H2O = 11.5 g / 18.01488 g/mole = 0.638361 moles
moles CO2 = 22.4 g / 44.0087 g/mole = 0.50899 moles
The number of moles of carbon is the same as the number of moles of CO2 since there's just 1 carbon atom per CO2 molecule.
Since there's 2 hydrogen atoms per molecule of H2O, you need to multiply the number of moles of H2O by 2 to get the number of moles of hydrogen.
moles C = 0.50899
moles H = 0.638361 * 2 = 1.276722
We can double check our math by multiplying the calculated number of moles of carbon and hydrogen by their respective atomic weights and see if we get the original mass of the hydrocarbon.
total mass = 0.50899 * 12.0107 + 1.276722 * 1.00794 = 7.400185
7.400185 is more than close enough to 7.40 given rounding errors, so the double check worked.
Now to find the empirical formula we need to find a ratio of small integers that comes close to the ratio of moles of carbon and hydrogen.
0.50899 / 1.276722 = 0.398669
0.398669 is extremely close to 4/10, so let's reduce that ratio by dividing both top and bottom by 2 giving 2/5.
Since the number of moles of carbon was on top, that ratio implies that the empirical formula for this unknown hydrocarbon is

Answer:
Explanation:
1.)azeotrope is a mixture of two or more liquid components under constant boiling, it has a constant mole fraction composition of present component which can be homogeneous or heterogeneous.
2.)the condition which it's best performed when there's liquids that is non-volatile which boils higher than other liquids with at least 26 degrees .
steam azentropic distillation
3.During a steam distillation, How to know if the organic compound is still coming over is when you see the solution becoming cloudy or when there is existence of two layers.
4.)The end of the steam distillation, the receiving flask should contain two layers of liquid, and the chemical identity of these two liquids most contain
A.) Layers that are mostly water H2O
B.) Layers that are mostly products
5.)What is the purpose of adding 10% sodium carbonate solution to the distillate if it is acidic to litmus is to neutralize the distillate.
Answer:
0.07172 L = 7.172 mL.
Explanation:
- We can use the general law of ideal gas: <em>PV = nRT.
</em>
where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm (P = 1.0 atm, Standard P).
V is the volume of the gas in L (V = ??? L).
n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol (n = 3.2 x 10⁻³ mol).
R is the general gas constant (R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K),
T is the temperature of the gas in K (T = 273 K, Standard T).
<em>∴ V = nRT/P =</em> (3.2 x 10⁻³ mol)(0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(273 K)/(1.0 atm) = <em>0.07172 L = 7.172 mL.</em>
