Answer:
The answer to your question is 0.41 moles
Explanation:
Data
moles of NaCl = ?
mass of NaCl = 24 g
Process
To solve this problem just calculate the molar mass of NaCl, and remember that the molar mass of any substance equals to 1 mol.
1.- Calculate the molar mass
NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g
2.- Use proportions and cross multiplication
58.5 g of NaCl ------------------- 1 mol
24.0 g ------------------- x
x = (24 x 1) / 58.5
x = 0.41 moles
Answer:
C₂Cl₄
Explanation:
To know if free rotation around a bond in a compound is possible, we need to see the structure of the compound (picture in attachment).
In single bonds, which are formed by σ bonds, the atoms are not fixed in a single position, and free rotation is permitted.
Double and triple bonds are formed by a σ bond and one or two π bonds, respectively. These bonds do not allow rotation, since it is not possible to twist the ends without breaking the π bond.
The chloroethylene (C₂Cl₄) has two carbons with an sp2-sp2 hybridization, they are bonded together by a double bond. <u>Free rotation on this bond is not possible, because six atoms, including the carbon atoms, doubly bonded and the four chlorine atoms bonded to them, must be on the same plane. </u>
The empirical formula for a compound is KClO3
Explanation
find the moles of each element
moles = % composition/molar mass
molar mass of of potassium =39g/mol ,chlorine = 35.5 g/mol, oxygen =16 g/mol
moles of potassium = 31.9 / 39 = 0.818 moles
moles of chlorine = 28.9/35.5 = 0.814 moles
moles of oxygen = 39.2/ 16 = 2.45 moles
find the mole ratio by dividing with the smallest mole = 0.814 moles
potassium = 0.818/0.814 =1
chlorine = 0.814/0.814 = 1
oxygen = 2.45 /0.814 =3
the empirical formula is therefore = KClO3
