Answer:

The answer is of course, D

Explanation:

For example, since potassium (K) is a metal and chlorine (Cl) is a nonmetal, if these two elements combine, they will form an ionic bond. If carbon (C), a nonmetal, and oxygen (O), a nonmetal, combine, they will form a covalent bond.

The answer is option D

(although in reality both ionic and covalent bonds are the same thing. the degree of how polar the molecule is determines it's nature)

iogann1982 [59]

When perfume or cologne is sprayed into the air, it turns into a gas and its particles mix with other air particles that quickly move around the room. This is because gas is the least dense of the three states of matter. It moves quickly into any space or volume because it has the least density. This is called diffusion, when molecules or particles move from areas with high concentration to low concentration areas.

The acetylene tank contains 35.0 mol C2H2, and the oxygen tank contains 84.0 mol O2.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:- As per the question is asked, 35.0 moles of acetylene gives 70 moles of carbon dioxide but if we solve the problem using the limiting reactant which is oxygen then 67.2 moles of carbon dioxide will form.

Solution:- The balanced equation for the combustion of acetylene is:

$2C_2H_2(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow 4CO_2(g)+2H_2O(g)$

From the balanced equation, two moles of acetylene gives four moles of carbon dioxide. Using dimensional analysis we could show the calculations for the formation of carbon dioxide by the combustion of 35.0 moles of acetylene.

$35.0molC_2H_2(\frac{4molCO_2}{2molC_2H_2})$

= $70molCO_2$

The next part is, how we choose 35.0 moles of acetylene and not 84.0 moles of oxygen.

From balanced equation, there is 2:5 mol ratio between acetylene and oxygen. Let's calculate the moles of oxygen required to react completely with 35.0 moles of acetylene.

$35.0molC_2H_2(\frac{5molO_2}{2molC_2H_2})$

= $87.5molO_2$

Calculations shows that 87.5 moles of oxygen are required to react completely with 35.0 moles of acetylene. Since only 84.0 moles of oxygen are available, the limiting reactant is oxygen, so 35.0 moles of acetylene will not react completely as it is excess reactant.

So, the theoretical yield should be calculated using 84.0 moles of oxygen as:

$84.0molO_2(\frac{4molO_2}{5molO_2})$

= $67.2molCO_2$

Upon combustion, a 0.8009 g sample of a compound containing only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen produces 1.6004 g CO2 and 0.6551 g

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

C2H4O

Explanation:

We can get the answer through calculations as follows.

From the mass of carbon iv oxide produced, we can get the number of moles of carbon produced. We first divide the mass by the molar mass of carbon iv oxide. The molar mass of carbon iv oxide is 44g/mol

The number of moles of carbon iv oxide is 1.6004/44 = 0.0364

Since there is only one carbon atom in CO2, the number of moles of carbon is same as above

The mass of carbon in the compound is simply the number of moles multiplied by the atomic mass unit. The atomic mass unit of carbon is 12. The mass of carbon in the compound is thus 12 * 0.0364= 0.4368g

From the number of moles of water, we can get the number of moles of hydrogen. To get the number of moles of water, we need to divide the mass of water by its molar mass. Its molar mass is 18g/mol. The number of moles here is thus 0.6551/18 = 0.0364 mole

But there are 2 atoms of hydrogen in 1 mole of water and thus, the number of moles of hydrogen is 2 * 0.0364= 0.0728

The mass of hydrogen is thus 0.0728* 1 = 0.0728g

The mass of oxygen equals the mass of the compound minus that of hydrogen and that of carbon.

= 0.8009 - 0.0728 - 0.4368 = 0.2913 mole

The number of moles of oxygen is the mass of oxygen divided by its atomic mass unit.

That equals 0.2913/16 = 0.0182 mole

The empirical formula can be obtained by dividing the number of moles of each by the smallest which is that of carbon and oxygen 0.0182

H = 0.0728/0.0182 = 4

C= 0.0364/0.0182 = 2

O= 0.0182/0.0182= 1

The empirical formula is thus C2H4O
