Answer:

Option 1 is correct. C10H10N10O2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of a compound = 8.84 grams

Mass of C = 3.53 grams

Mass of H = 0.295 grams

Mass of N = 4.08 grams

Mass of O = 0.935 grams

Atomic mass C = 12.01 g/mol

Atomic mass H = 1.01 g/mol

Atomic mass N = 14.0 g/mol

Atomic mass O = 16.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles C = 3.53 grams / 12.01 g/mol

Moles C = 0.294 moles

Moles H = 0.295 grams / 1.01 g/mol

Moles H = 0.292 moles

Moles N = 4.08 grams / 14.0 g/mol

Moles N = 0.291 moles

Moles O = 0.935 grams / 16 g/mol

Moles O = 0.0584 moles

Step 3: Calculate mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

C: 0.294 / 0.0584 = 5

H: 0.292 / 0.0584 = 5

N: 0.291/0.0584 = 5

O: 0.0584/0.0584 = 1

The empirical formula is C5H5N5O

Option 1 has this empirical formula

C10H10N10O2

2) </span><span>Breaking Solute-Solute Attractions is an Endothermic Process.

3) </span><span>Forming Solute-Solvent Attractions is an Exothermic Process.

Explanation:
                   When a solute is dissolved in solvent it either releases heat or absorbs heat depending upon the the interactions broken and interactions formed. At first, the solvent solvent interactions are broken , this process requires heat which is provided either from external source or is provided by the forming of solute solvent bond forming process which is exothermic.

When the solvent molecules get apart the solute particles enter to form interactions with elimination of heat. So, if the heat required to break solvent solvent interactions is greater than the heat provided by solute solvent interactions formation then the solute will not dissolve at room temperature and vice versa.</span>

Problem PageQuestion Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume
IgorC [24]

Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume of hydrogen chloride would be produced by this reaction if 3.16 L of chlorine were consumed at STP.

Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm  (at STP)

V = Volume of gas = 3.16 L

n = number of moles = ?

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =273K=

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{1atm\times 3.16L}{0.0820 L atm/K mol\times 273K}=0.141moles

CH_4+4Cl_2\rightarrow 4HCl+CCl_4

According to stoichiometry:

4 moles of chlorine produces = 1 mole of carbon tetrachloride

Thus 0.141 moles of methane produces = \frac{1}{4}\times 0.141=0.0352 moles of carbon tetrachloride

volume of carbon tetrachloride =moles\times {\text {Molar volume}}=0.0352mol\times 22.4L/mol=0.788L

Thus volume of carbon tetrachloride that would be produced is 0.788 L
