<h3>Answer;</h3>

26.2 kJ of energy are absorbed for every mole of carbon reacted

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

ΔH is the enthalpy change which is given by subtracting the energy of reactants from the energy of products.
That is; ΔH = energy of products - energy of reactants
In this case, it means that C2H4 has more energy than the the reactants. 52.4 J of energy to be precise, this energy is absorbed during the reaction.
However, Two moles of Carbon require that much energy, thus one mole will require only 26.2 to react.

erosion

The process known as weathering breaks up rocks so that they can be carried away by the process known as erosion. Water, wind, ice, and waves are the agents of erosion that wear away at the surface of the Earth

Menthol, which is present in mentholated cough drops, is an organic compound

Pie

Answer:

The empirical formula is C10H20O

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample = 0.2010 grams

Mass of CO2 = 0.5658 grams

Molar mass CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

Mass of H2O = 0.2318 grams

Molar mass H2O = 18.02 g/mol

Atomic mass C = 12.01 g/mol

Atomic mass O = 16.0 g/mol

Atomic mass H = 1.01 g/mol

Step 2: calculate moles CO2

Moles CO2 = 0.5658 gram / 44.01 g/mol

Moles CO2 = 0.01286 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles C

For 1 mol CO2 we have 1 mol C

For 0.01286 moles CO2 we have 0.01286 moles C

Step 4: Calculate mass C

MAss C = 0.01286 moles * 12.01 g/mol

Mass C =0.1544 grams

Step 5: Calculate moles H2O

Moles H2O =0.2318 grams / 18.02 g/mol

Moles H2O = 0.01286 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles H

For 1 mol H2O we have 2 moles H

For 0.01286 moles H2O we have 2*0.01286 = 0.02572 moles H

Step 7: Calculate mass H

Mass H = 0.02572 moles * 1.01 g/mol

Mass H = 0.0260 grams

Step8: Calculate mass O

Mass O = 0.2010 - 0.1544 - 0.0260

Mass O = 0.0206 grams

Step 9: Calculate moles O

Moles O = 0.0206 grams / 16.0 g/mol

Moles O = 0.00129 moles

Step 10: Calculate the mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

C: 0.01286 moles / 0.00129 moles = 10

H: 0.02572 moles / 0.00129 moles = 20

O: 0.00129 moles / 0.00129 moles = 1

The empirical formula is C10H20O

Draw a Lewis structure for C2H3Cl . Include all hydrogen atoms and show all unshared electron pairs. None of the atoms bears a f

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

See attached picture.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since C2H3Cl is an organic compound we need a central C-C parent chain to which the three hydrogen atoms and one chlorine atom provides the electrons to get all the octets except for H as given on the statement.

In such a way, on the attached picture you can find the required Lewis dot structure without formal charges and with all the unshared electron pairs, considering there is a double bond binding the central carbon atoms in order to compete their octets.

Best regards!
