what is the empirical formula of vanadium 1 oxide given that 20.38 grams of vandium combines with oxygen to form 23.58 grams of

Alex

Answer:

The empirical formula is V₂O

Empirical formula of a compound is the formula that shows the simplest whole number ratio of the atoms of elements in a given compound. Empirical formula is normally calculated when the mass of each element in a compound is known or the percentage composition by mass of each element in a compound is known.

Step by Step Explanation:

Step 1: Percentage composition of each element

Percentage composition=(mass of an element/ mass of the compound)100%

Mass of Vanadium = 20.38 g

Mass of the compound = 23.58 g

% composition of Vanadium = (20.38 g/23.58 g) 100%

= 86.43 %

Mass of Oxygen = 23.58 g -20.38 g

= 3.2 g

% composition of oxygen = (3.2/g/23.58 g) 100%

= 13.57%

Step 2: Find the number of atoms of each element in the compound

Number of atoms = percentage composition/ atomic mass

Atomic mass of Vanadium = 50.94 g/mol

Number of atoms of V = 86.43 /50.94

= 1.6967

Atomic mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol

Number of atoms of O = 13.57/16

= 0.8481

Step 3: Find the simplest ratio of atoms

Vanadium : Oxygen

1.6967 : 0.8481

= 1.6967/0.8481 : 0.8481/0.8481

= 2: 1

Whole number ratio = 2 : 1

Therefore; the empirical formula is V₂O

Menthol, the substance we can smell in mentholated cough drops, is composed of C, H, and O. A 0.1005 g sample of menthol is comb

Bogdan [553]

Answer: The molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=0.2829g$

Mass of $H_2O=0.1159g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.2829 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.2829=0.077g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.1159 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.1159=0.0129g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.1005) - (0.077 + 0.0129) = 0.0106 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.077g}{12g/mole}=0.0064moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.0129g}{1g/mole}=0.0129moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.0106g}{16g/mole}=0.00066moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.00066 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.0064}{0.00066}=9.69\approx 10$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.0129}{0.00064}=19.54\approx 20$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.00066}{0.00066}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 10 : 20 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_{10}H_{20}O_1=C_{10}H_{20}O$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

$n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 156.27 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 156 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{156.27g/mol}{156g/mol}=1$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(1\times 10)}H_{(1\times 20)}O_{(1\times 1)}=C_{10}H_{20}O$

Thus, the molecular formula for the menthol is $C_{10}H_{20}O$

How many moles are in 442.8 g of strontium carbonate (SrCO3)?

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

3 moles

Explanation:

SrCO3

Mass = 442.8g

Molar mass = (87.6 + 12 * [16*3]) = 147.6g/mol

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 442.8 / 147.6

Number of moles = 3
