A 33.153 mg sample of a chemical known to contain only carbon, hydrogen, sulfur, and oxygen is put into a combustion analysis ap
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The empirical formula of the compound = C_4H_8S_1O_1

Explanation:

Mass of carbon dioxide gas = 59.060 mg = 0.059060 g

1 mg = 0.001 g

Moles of carbon dioxide = \frac{0.059060 g}{44 g/mol}=0.0013 mol

Moles of carbon in 0.0013 moles of carbon dioxide gas = 1 × 0.0013 mol = 0.0013 mol

Mass of 0.0013 moles of carbon = 12 g/mol\times 0.0013 mol=0.0156 g

Mass of water = 24.176 mg = 0.024176

Moles of water = \frac{0.024176 g}{18 g/mol}=0.0013 mol

Moles of hydrogen in 0.0013 moles of water = 2 × 0.0013 mol = 0.0026 mol

Mass of 0.0013 moles of hydrogen= 1 g/mol\times 0.0013 mol=0.0013 g

Mass of sulfur dioxide = 20.326 mg = 0.020326 g

Moles of sulfur dioxide = \frac{0.020326 g}{64 g/mol}=0.00032 mol

Moles of sulfur in 0.00032 moles of sulfur dioxide = 1 × 0.00032 mol = 0.00032 mol

Mass of 0.00032 moles of sulfur = 32 g/mol\times 0.00032 mol=0.01024 g

Mass of oxygen in the sample = x

Mass of sample = 33.153 mg = 0.033153 g

0.033153 g = 0.0156  g + 0.0013 g + 0.01024 g + x

x = 0.006013 g

Moles of oxygen = \frac{0.006013 g}{16 g/mol}=0.00038 mol

For empirical formula divide the lowest number of moles of elemnt from all the moles of the all the elements:

Carbon : \frac{0.0013 mol}{0.00032 mol}=4

Hydrogen: \frac{0.0026 mol}{0.00032 mol}=8

Sulfur : \frac{0.00032 mol}{0.00032 mol}=1

Oxygen : \frac{0.00038 mol}{0.00032 mol}=1

The empirical formula of the compound = C_4H_8S_1O_1

Effectus [21]

Answer:

(C) Decomposition reaction

Explanation:

A decomposition reaction is a chemical reaction in which a single compound breaks down into two or more compounds or elements.

<u>in this example </u>

  • 2KClO₃(s) ->2KCl (s) + 3O₂ (g)

Potassium chlorate (KClO₃) decomposed to two smaller compounds KCl and O₂ gas.

So, the right choice is (C) Decomposition reaction
