The answer is B
I also did this quiz.
Answer:
oxidation number is correct!! :)
Explanation:
Basis of the calculation: 100g
For Carbon:
Mass of carbon = (100 g)(0.80) = 80 g
Number of moles of carbon = (80 g)(1 mole / 12g) = 20/3
For Hydrogen:
Mass of hydrogen = (100 g)(0.20) = 20 g
Number of moles of hydrogen = (20 g)(1 mole / 1 g) = 20
Translating the answer to the formula of the substance,
C20/3H20
Dividing the answer,
CH3
The molar mass of the empirical formula is:
12 + 3 = 15 g/mol
Since, the molar mass given for the molecular formula is 30.069 g/mol, the molecular equation is,
C2H6
ANSWER: C2H6
Answer:

Explanation:
We want to convert from moles to grams, so we must use the molar mass.
<h3>1. Molar Mass</h3>
The molar mass is the mass of 1 mole of a substance. It is the same as the atomic masses on the Periodic Table, but the units are grams per mole (g/mol) instead of atomic mass units (amu).
We are given the compound PI₃ or phosphorus triiodide. Look up the molar masses of the individual elements.
- Phosphorus (P): 30.973762 g/mol
- Iodine (I): 126.9045 g/mol
Note that there is a subscript of 3 after the I in the formula. This means there are 3 moles of iodine in 1 mole of the compound PI₃. We should multiply iodine's molar mass by 3, then add phosphorus's molar mass.
- I₃: 126.9045 * 3=380.7135 g/mol
- PI₃: 30.973762 + 380.7135 = 411.687262 g/mol
<h3>2. Convert Moles to Grams</h3>
Use the molar mass as a ratio.

We want to convert 3.14 moles to grams, so we multiply by that value.

The units of moles of PI₃ cancel.


<h3>3. Round</h3>
The original measurement of moles has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the tens place.
The 2 in the ones place tells us to leave the 9.

3.14 moles of phosphorous triiodide is approximately equal to <u>1290 grams of phosphorus triodide.</u>
