Answer:

35.578g or 36g if you round

Explanation:

Q=mc ∆∅ where ∅ is temperature difference

1160= m x 1.716 x (42-23)

m = 1160/ 1.716 x19

m=35.578g

m = 36g to nearest whole number

kirill [66]
<span>Answer: A 0.04403 g sample of gas occupies 10.0-mL at 289.0 K and 1.10 atm. Upon further analysis, the compound is found to be 25.305% C and 74.695% Cl. What is the molecular formula of the compound? --------------------------------------... Seems like I did a problem very similar to this--this must be the "B" test. But the halogen was different. 25.305% C/12 = 2.108 74.695% Cl/35.5 = 2.104 So the empirical formula would be CH. However, there are many compounds which fit this bill, so we have to use the gas data. (And I made, in the previous problem, the simplifying assumption that 289C and 1.10 atm would offset each other, so I'll do that, too.) 0.044 grams/10 ml = x/22.4 liters 0.044g/0.010 liters = x/22.4 liters 22.4 liters/0.010 liters = 2240 (ratio) 2240 x .044 = 98.56 (actual atomic weight) CCl = 35.5+12 or 47.5, so two of those is 95 grams/mole. This is sufficiient to distinguish C2CL2, (dichloroacetylene) from C6CL6 (hexachlorobenzene) which would mass 3 times as much.</span>

Describe where a hydrogen bond can form among water molecules.
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

                 In water hydrogen bonding formed between partially negative oxygen and partially positive hydrogen atoms.

Explanation:

                  Hydrogen bond is a partially electrostatic attraction between hydrogen (H), which is bonded to a more electronegative atom such as nitrogen (N), oxygen (O) or fluorine (F), and another adjacent atom bearing a lone pair of electrons.

                   In water molecule hydrogen and oxygen have difference in electronegativity, due to which dipoles are form. One is partial positive on hydrogen atom and other is partial negative on oxygen atom. The electrostatic attraction occur between two oppositely charged poles which is known as hydrogen bonding.
