Empirical formula of ch2 and molar formula of 56 grams what is molecular formula

Chemistry

<span>One mole of carbon weighs 12 grams and one mole of hydrogen weighs 1 gram. Therefore, one mole of CH2 weighs 12 + 1 + 1 = 14 grams.

56 divided by 14 = 4

Therefore, you need 4 "moles" of CH2 to equal 56 grams of the unknown substance. To get the equivalent of 4 "moles" of CH2 you need one mole of C4H8.


Hope this helps :)

To find the molecular formula from the empirical formula, you need to find a multiple (x) that will give you the molar mass of the compound which in the question is 56 g/mol.

If CH₂ is the empirical formula
 molar mass of empirical formula = (12 × 1) + (1 × 2) g/mol
                                                     =  14 g/mol
let x = multiple
let molecular formula = Cₓ H₂ₓ

            multiple = molecular mass ÷ empirical mass
                         =  56 g/mol ÷  14 g/mol
                         =  4


If molecular formula = Cₓ H₂ₓ
then molecular formula = C₄H₂₍₄₎
                                      = C₄H₈

An iron nail rusts when exposed to oxygen. According to the following reaction, how many moles of iron(III) oxide will be formed
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

0.453 moles

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is:

2Fe(s) + 3O2(g)  ==>  2Fe2O3

From the equation,  mass of O2 involved = 16 x 2 x 3 = 96g

                                 mass of Fe2O3 involved = [(2x26) + 3 x 16] x 2

                                                                            = 100g

                Therefore 96g of O2 produced 100g of Fe2O3

                                  32.2g of O2 Will produce   100x32.2/96

                                                   = 33.54g of Fe2O3

Converting it to mole using   number of mole = mass/molar mass

but molar mass of Fe2O3 = 26 + (16 X 3)

                                           = 74g/mole

Therefore number of mole of 33.54g of Fe2O3 = 33.54/74

                                                                           = 0.453 moles

Answer:

B. first level consumers.

Explanation:

The first level consumers are also the primary consumers. They are the animals that depends or rely on plants to transform chemical energy into carbohydrates and sugar.

Primary consumers are mostly herbivores. They feed on plant matter by which they derive their nutrition. They have special enzymes that helps to convert plant materials into substances needed for their body.

So, the first level consumer takes plant matter and convert them into useful food materials for their own nutrition.

The second level consumers depend on the first level consumers for nutrition.

Which polyatomic ion is found in the compound represented by the formula NaHCO3?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer is (2) - hydrogen carbonate


<em>Explanation:</em>


NaHCO₃ is an ionic compound which is made from Na⁺ and HCO₃⁻ ions. The decomposition is

NaHCO₃ → Na⁺ + HCO₃⁻


Among the resulted ions, Na⁺ is a monatomic ion while HCO₃⁻ is a polyatomic ion.


<em>Polyatomic ions mean ions which are made of two or more different atoms.</em>


HCO₃⁻ is made from 3 atoms as H, C and O. The name of HCO₃⁻ ion is bicarbonate or hydrogen carbonate.
