Answer: molecular formula = C12H16O8

Explanation:

NB Mm CO2= 44g/mol

Mm H2O= 18g/mol

Moles of CO2 = 36.86/44=0.84mol

0.84mole of CO2 has 0.84 mol of C

Moles of H2O = 10.06/18= 0.56mol

1mol of H20 contains 1mol of O and 2 mol H,

Hence there are 0.56mol O and (0.56×2)mol H

Hence the compound contains

C= 0.84 mol H= 1.12mol O=0.56mol

Divide through by smallest number

C= 0.83/0.56= 1.5mol

H= 1.12/0.55= 2mol

O= 0.56/0.56= 1mol

Multiply all by 2 to have whole number of moles = 3:4:2

Hence empirical formula= C3H4O2

(C3H4O2)n = 288.38

[(12×3) + 4+(16×2)]n= 288.38

72n=288.38

n= 4

:. Molecular formula=(C3H4O2)4= C12H16O8

fgiga [73]

Answer:

Explanation:

The two carbon atoms would be different. These different carbon isotopes are called isotopes. Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass number due to the difference in the number of neutrons in their various nuclei.

Carbon for example has 3 known isotopes which are:

                    ¹²₆C         ¹³₆C         ¹⁴₆C

These isotopes have different places in nature where they can be found. Some can occur together naturally.

Isotopes have the same chemical properties because they share similar electronic configuration.

Which of the following gases experience the greatest degree of deviation from ideal behavior under high pressures and low temper
xz_007 [3.2K]

A) CH4

In general, methane reactions are difficult to control. Partial oxidation to methanol, for example, is a rather difficult reaction because the chemical reactions that occur continue to form carbon dioxide and water even though the amount of oxygen available is insufficient.

<h2>Further explanation </h2>

Methane is the simplest hydrocarbon in the form of gas with the chemical formula CH4. Pure methane does not smell, but if used for commercial purposes, a bit of sulfur is usually added to detect leaks that might occur.

Methane is a greenhouse gas. Methane is used in chemical industrial processes and can be transported as frozen liquids (liquefied natural gas, or LNG).

Methane is a major component of natural gas, around 87% of volume.

Methane is not toxic, but is highly flammable and can cause explosions when mixed with air.

Ugo [173]

Answer:

The answer is "3.81041978"

Explanation:

\to 1 \ OZ= 28.349523125 \ grams\\\\

              =28.349523125\times {1000} \ miligrams\\\\= 28349. 5231  \ miligrams\\

In 1860 = 28349.5231 \ miligrams\\

\to In \$ \ 1 = \frac{28349.5231}{1860} \ \ miligrams\\

             = 15.2416791 \ miligrams

\ In \  1 \ quarter =  \$ \ 0.25

\to \$ \ 0.25 =  15.2416791  \times 0.25 \  miligrams\\

A student found that the titration had taken 10.00 ml of 0.1002 m naoh to titration 0.132 g of aspirin, a monoprotic acid. calcu
Harman [31]
The balanced equation for the reaction between NaOH and aspirin is as follows;
NaOH + C₉H₈O₄ --> C₉H₇O₄Na + H₂O
stoichiometry of NaOH to C₉H₈O₄ is 1:1
The number of NaOH moles reacted - 0.1002 M / 1000 mL/L x 10.00 mL 
Number of NaOH  moles - 0.001002 mol
Therefore number of moles of aspirin - 0.001002 mol
Mass of aspirin reacted - 0.001002 mol x 180.2 g/mol = 0.18 g
However the mass of the aspirin sample is 0.132 g but 0.18 g of aspirin has reacted, therefore this question is not correct.

15. Which sample of argon gas has the same number of atoms as a 100.-milliliter sample of helium gas at 1.0 atm and 300. K? A) 5
OLga [1]

The sample of argon gas that has the same number of atoms as a 100 milliliter sample of helium gas at 1.0 atm and 300 is 100. mL at 1.0 atm and 300. K

The correct option is D.

<h3>What is the number of moles of gases in the given samples?</h3>

The number of moles of gases in each of the given samples of gas is found below using the ideal gas equation.

The ideal gas equation is: PV/RT = n

where;

  • P is pressure
  • V is volume
  • n is number of moles of gas
  • T is temperature of gas
  • R is molar gas constant = 0.082 atm.L/mol/K

Moles of gas in the given helium gas sample:

P = 1.0 atm, V = 100 mL or 0.1 L, T = 300 K

n =  1 * 0.1 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00406 moles

For the argon gas sample:

A. n =  1 * 0.05 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00203 moles

B. n =  0.5 * 0.05 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00102 moles

C. n =  0.5 * 0.1 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00203 moles

D. n =  1 * 0.1 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00406 moles
