What are the empirical formula and empirical formula mass for C10H30O10?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Empirical formula: CH₃O

Empirical formula mass = 31 g/mol

Explanation:

Data Given:

Molecular Formula = C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀

Empirical Formula = ?

Empirical Formula mass =

Solution

Empirical Formula:

Empirical formula is the simplest ration of atoms in the molecule but not all numbers of atoms in a compound.

So,

The ratio of the molecular formula should be divided by whole number to get the simplest ratio of molecule

As

C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀ Consist of  10 Carbon (C) atoms, 30 Hydrogen (H) atoms, and 10 Oxygen (O) atoms.

Now

Look at the ratio of these three atoms in the compound

                         C : H : O

                        10 : 30 : 10

Divide the ratio by two to get simplest ratio

                          C      :   H      :    O

                         10/10 : 30/10 : 10/10

                             1 : 3 : 1

So for the empirical formula the simplest ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen is 1:3:1

So the empirical formula will be

                     Empirical formula of C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀ =  CH₃O

Now

To find the empirical formula mass in g/mol

Formula mass:

Formula mass is the total sum of the atomic masses of all the atoms present in a formula unit.

**Note:

if we represent the molar mass of the empirical formula for one mol in grams then it is written as g/mol

So,

As the empirical formula of C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀ is CH₃O

Then Its empirical formula mass will be

CH₃O

Atomic Mass of C = 12

Atomic Mass of H = 3

Atomic Mass of O = 16

Total Molar mass of CH₃O

CH₃O = 12 + 3(1) + 16

CH₃O = 12 + 3 + 16

CH₃O = 31 g/mol

Consider the following reaction:
Kitty [74]

Answer : The value of equilibrium constant (Kc) is, 0.0154

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction is:

                        SO_2Cl_2(g)\rightarrow SO_2(g)+Cl_2(g)

Initial conc.    2.4\times 10^{-2}          0             0

At eqm.          (2.4\times 10^{-2}-x)   x              x

As we are given:

Concentration of Cl_2 at equilibrium = 1.3\times 10^{-2}M

That means,

x=1.3\times 10^{-2}M

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

K_c=\frac{[SO_2][Cl_2]}{[SO_2Cl_2]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

K_c=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{2.4\times 10^{-2}-x}

K_c=\frac{(1.3\times 10^{-2})\times (1.3\times 10^{-2})}{2.4\times 10^{-2}-1.3\times 10^{-2}}

K_c=0.0154

Thus, the value of equilibrium constant (Kc) is, 0.0154

Which statement is true about a reaction represented by a chemical equation that shows energy as a reactant?
vovikov84 [41]
A. It absorbs energy.
reactants are located on the left side of the equation, meaning energy among with other reactants were needed to get the reaction going, so it absorbed energy, which is also the endothermic process. The opposite of that would be having energy on the right side with the products which means that the reaction would've released energy which is the exothermic process. Hope this helps!
