Answer: Fire requires oxygen to burn. Water "smothers" fire and prevents it from acquiring more oxygen. Fire also requires heat, which cool water may prevent/remove.
Use M x V = M' x V'
0.300 x V = 0.100 x 250
V = .......... ml
Answer:
CH
Explanation:
We have to obtain the mass of carbon and hydrogen in CO2 and H2O respectively.
For carbon in CO2;
0.845 * 12/44 = 0.23 g
For hydrogen in H20;
0.173 * 2/18 = 0.019 g
We convert the masses to moles of carbon and hydrogen
For carbon - 0.23/ 12 = 0.019 moles
For hydrogen - 0.019/1 = 0.019 moles
Dividing by 0.019 moles for carbon and hydrogen we have the emperical formula of the compound as CH
