The reaction of equal molar amounts of benzene, C6H6, and chlorine, Cl2, carried out under special conditions, yields a gas and

a clear liquid. Analysis of the liquid shows that it contains 64.03% carbon, 4.48% hydrogen, and 31.49% chlorine by mass and that is has a molar mass of 112.5 g/mol. The molecular formula will be determined. First, determine the number of moles of carbon in a 100 g sample.

Answer : The molecular formula of a compound is, C_6H_5Cl_1

Solution : Given,

Mass of C = 64.03 g

Mass of H = 4.48 g

Mass of Cl = 31.49 g

Molar mass of C = 12 g/mole

Molar mass of H = 1 g/mole

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mole

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C = \frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{64.03g}{12g/mole}=5.34moles

Moles of H = \frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{4.48g}{1g/mole}=4.48moles

Moles of Cl = \frac{\text{ given mass of Cl}}{\text{ molar mass of Cl}}= \frac{31.49g}{35.5g/mole}=0.887moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C = \frac{5.34}{0.887}=6.02\approx 6

For H = \frac{4.48}{0.887}=5.05\approx 5

For Cl = \frac{0.887}{0.887}=1

The ratio of C : H : Cl = 6 : 5 : 1

The mole ratio of the element is represented by subscripts in empirical formula.

The Empirical formula = C_6H_5Cl_1

The empirical formula weight = 6(12) + 5(1) + 1(35.5) = 112.5 gram/eq

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula of the compound.

Formula used :

n=\frac{\text{Molecular formula}}{\text{Empirical formula weight}}

n=\frac{112.5}{112.5}=1

Molecular formula = (C_6H_5Cl_1)_n=(C_6H_5Cl_1)_1=C_6H_5Cl_1

Therefore, the molecular of the compound is, C_6H_5Cl_1

7. List all of the variables that you controlled or kept the same.<br>Salt water​
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Temperature is a common type of controlled variable. If a temperature is held constant during an experiment, it is controlled. Other examples of controlled variables could be an amount of light, using the same type of glassware, constant humidity, or duration of an experiment.

What is the volume of 1.4 mol of nitrogen gas at STP?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

31.36 Liters

Explanation:

1 mole is equal to 22.4 liters at STP so you can use the equation

1.4 moles * 22.4 liters

to find the volume.

Fe(NO3)2 not sure how to get the oxidation numbers of all elements
Shtirlitz [24]
You must remember that oxidation number of hydrogen in acids is always +1, oxidation number of oxygen in oxides & acids is always -2... metals has always oxidation number on plus!

group NO3 comes from HNO3...and oxidation number of whole acid group is always on minus and equal to the amount of hydrogen atoms in this acid... so oxidation number of NO3 = -1

we have 2 NO3 groups so 2*(-1) = -2 and that is the reason why oxidation number of Fe in this formula must be +2... because sum of all elements always gives 0!

Now we could count of oxidation number for nitrogen... we write HNO3 and start counting from right to left:
3*(-2) from oxygens + 1 from hydrogen = -5
so nitrogen must have +5 oxidation number... because sum all in formula must be 0.

How many molecules are there in 8.25 moles of CaHia?
expeople1 [14]

The number of molecules : 4.967 x 10²⁴

<h3>Further explanation   </h3>

A mole is a number of particles(atoms, molecules, ions)  in a substance

This refers to the atomic total of the 12 gr C-12  which is equal to 6.02.10²³, so 1 mole = 6.02.10²³ particles  

Can be formulated :

N = n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = 6.02.10²³ = Avogadro's number

8.25 moles of C₈H₁₈

The number of molecules :

\tt 8.25\times 6.02\times 10^{23}=4.967\times 10^{24}
