Answer:

Empirical formula of C₈H₈ = CH

Explanation:

Data Given:

Molecular Formula = C₈H₈

Empirical Formula = ?

Solution

Empirical Formula:

Empirical formula is the simplest ration of atoms in the molecule but not all numbers of atoms in a compound.

So,

tha ration of the molecular formula should be divided by whole number to get the simplest ratio of molecule

C₈H₈ Consist of Carbon (C), and Hydrogen (H)

Now

Look at the ratio of these two atoms in the compound

C : H

8 : 8

Divide the ratio by two to get simplest ratio

C : H

8/8 : 8/8

1 : 1

So for the empirical formula is the simplest ratio of carbon to hydrogen 1 : 1

So the empirical formula will be

Empirical formula of C₈H₈ = CH

How many molecules of carbon tetrafluoride, CF4, are in 176 grams of CF4?

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

1.2*10^24 molecules of CF4

Explanation:

the molar mass of cf4 is 88.0043 g/mol

176/88.0043 = 2 moles of CF4

Then multiply by avogadro's number (6.022*10^23) to get the number of molecules

2*6.022*10^23 = 1.2*10^24 molecules of CF4

What is the change in air pressure over a given distance called? wind speed air pressure force factor air pressure gradient

lubasha [3.4K]

The change in pressure over a given distance is defined as a pressure gradient. The strength of this pressure gradient determines how fast the wind moves from higher pressure toward lower pressure. A stronger pressure gradient will cause stronger winds, as shown in Figure 2. >> Balanced in the vertical by the force of gravity

Aclosed system contains an equimolar mixture of n-pentane and isopentane. Suppose the system is initially all liquid at 120°C an

garri49 [273]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

T = $120^{o}C$ = (120 + 273.15)K = 393.15 K,

As it is given that it is an equimolar mixture of n-pentane and isopentane.

So, $x_{1}$ = 0.5 and $x_{2}$ = 0.5

According to the Antoine data, vapor pressure of two components at 393.15 K is as follows.

$p^{sat}_{1}$ (393.15 K) = 9.2 bar

$p^{sat}_{1}$ (393.15 K) = 10.5 bar

Hence, we will calculate the partial pressure of each component as follows.

$p_{1} = x_{1} \times p^{sat}_{1}$

= $0.5 \times 9.2 bar$

= 4.6 bar

and, $p_{2} = x_{2} \times p^{sat}_{2}$

= $0.5 \times 10.5 bar$

= 5.25 bar

Therefore, the bubble pressure will be as follows.

P = $p_{1} + p_{2}$

= 4.6 bar + 5.25 bar

= 9.85 bar

Now, we will calculate the vapor composition as follows.

$y_{1} = \frac{p_{1}}{p}$

= $\frac{4.6}{9.85}$

= 0.467

and, $y_{2} = \frac{p_{2}}{p}$

= $\frac{5.25}{9.85}$

= 0.527

Calculate the dew point as follows.

$y_{1}$ = 0.5, $y_{2}$ = 0.5

$\frac{1}{P} = \sum \frac{y_{1}}{p^{sat}_{1}}$

$\frac{1}{P} = \frac{0.5}{9.2} + \frac{0.5}{10.2}$

$\frac{1}{P}$ = 0.101966 $bar^{-1}$

P = 9.807

Composition of the liquid phase is $x_{i}$ and its formula is as follows.

$x_{i} = \frac{y_{i} \times P}{p^{sat}_{1}}$

= $\frac{0.5 \times 9.807}{9.2}$

= 0.5329

$x_{z} = \frac{y_{i} \times P}{p^{sat}_{1}}$

= $\frac{0.5 \times 9.807}{10.5}$

= 0.467

Which phrase best discribes wave motion

kap26 [50]

Answer:

propagation of disturbances—that is, deviations from a state of rest or equilibrium—from place to place in a regular and organized way. Most familiar are surface waves on water, but both sound and light travel as wavelike disturbances, and the motion of all subatomic particles exhibits wavelike properties.
