<span>In order to do that, we first have to calculate the "molar mass" of empirical unit

12+2*1+16 = 30

so 90/30 = 3

so you have 3*(CH2O) --> C3H6O3

hope this helps</span>

The empirical formula of a compound is determined to be CH2O, and its molecular mass is found to be 90.087 g/mol. Determine the molecular formula of the compound, showing your solution.

Answer: This is actually quite simple, first we have to calculate the molar mass of empirical unit. Therefore we have 12+2*1+16 = 30. Then we solve 90/30 = 3. Finally we end up with 3*(CH2O) --> C3H6O3.

I hope it helps, Regards.

A 25.0-mL sample of 0.150 M hydrazoic acid, HN3, is titrated with a 0.150 M NaOH solution. What is the pH after 13.3 mL of base
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

pH ≅ 4.80

Explanation:

Given that:

the volume of HN₃ = 25 mL = 0.025 L

Molarity of HN₃ = 0.150 M

number of moles of HN₃ = 0.025 × 0.150

number of moles of HN₃ =  0.00375  mol

Molarity of NaOH = 0.150 M

the volume of NaOH = 13.3 mL = 0.0133

number of moles of NaOH = 0.0133× 0.150

number of moles of NaOH = 0.001995 mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of this process can be written as:

HN_3 + OH- ---> N^-_{3} + H_2O

1 mole of hydrazoic acid react with 1 mole of hydroxide to give nitride ion and water

thus the new number of moles of HN₃ = 0.00375 - 0.001995 = 0.001755 mol

Total volume used in the reaction =  0.025 +  0.0133 = 0.0383  L

Concentration of HN_3 = \dfrac{0.001755}{0.0383} = 0.0458 M

Concentration of N^{-}_3 = \dfrac{ 0.001995 }{0.0383} = 0.0521 M

GIven that :

Ka = 1.9 x 10^{-5}

Thus; it's pKa = 4.72

pH =4.72 +  log(\dfrac{ \ 0.0521}{0.0458})

pH =4.72 + log(1.1376)

pH =4.72 + 0.05598

pH =4.77598

pH ≅ 4.80
