Chemical property is the property of the substances that describes the ability of the substance to involve in chemical reactions. Physical property is that which does not change the chemical composition of the substances. The following properties of water that it is transparent and tasteless in its pure form and it freezes at a temperature of are physical properties as they simply indicate the change in physical state without any change in chemical composition of water.
The other two properties that water reacts with halogens to form oxygen gas as one of the products and water decomposes to form hydrogen and oxygen are chemical properties as the chemical composition of water changes in the given reaction.
Therefore the correct answer is b. 1 and 4
Answer:
<h2> 162g/mol</h2>Explanation:
The question is incomplete. The complete question includes the information to find the empirical formula of nicotine:
<em>Nicotine has the formula </em><em> . To determine its composition, a sample is burned in excess oxygen, producing the following results:</em>
- <em>1.0 mol of CO₂</em>
- <em>0.70 mol of H₂O</em>
- <em>0.20 mol of NO₂</em>
<em>Assume that all the atoms in nicotine are present as products </em>
<h2>Solution</h2>To find the empirical formula you need to find the moles of C, H, and N in each of the compound.
- 1.0 mol of CO₂ has 1.0 mol of C
- 0.70 mol of H₂O has 1.4 mol of H
- 0.20 mol of NO₂ has 0.20 mol of N
Thus, the ratio of moles is:
- C: 1.0
- H: 1.4
- N: 0.20
Divide all by the smallest number: 0.20
- C: 1.0 / 0.20 = 5
- H: 1.4 / 0.20 = 7
- N: 0.20 / 0.20 = 1
Hence, the empirical formula is C₅H₇N
Find the mass of 1 mole of units of the empirical formula:
- C: 5mol × 12g/mol = 60g
- H: 7mol × 1g/mol = 7 g
- N: 1 mol × 14g/mol = 14g
Total mass = 60g + 7g + 14g = 81g
Two moles of units of the empirical formula weighs 2 × 81g = 162g and three units weighs 3 × 81g = 243 g.
Thus, since the molar mass is between 150 and 180 g/mol, the correct molar mass is 162g/mol and the molecular formula is twice the empirical formula: C₁₀H₁₄N₂.
