6. Geologists in Egypt and Ethiopia are comparing rock samples from rocks

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Both are different.

Explanation:

Both rocks are different from one another because both formed from different types of rocks. Rock A was formed from small pieces of rock while on the other hand, Rock B was formed from liquid rock so they both have different sources of rocks from which they were formed. Forming at the same time does not show that they are similar to each other, it is their source which decides that they are similar or different.

The smell of dirty gym socks is caused by the compound caproic acid(contains H, C, O). Combustion of 0.844 g of caproic acid pro

adoni [48]

Answer: The molecular formula for the given organic compound is $C_2H_{32}O_4$

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 $CO_2=0.784g$

Mass of $H_2O=1.92g$

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

So, in 0.784 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.784=0.214g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

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

So, in 1.92 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 1.92=0.213g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.844) - (0.214 + 0.213) = 0.417 g

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

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.214g}{12g/mole}=0.0134moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.213g}{1g/mole}=0.213moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.417g}{16g/mole}=0.0261moles$

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 0.0134 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.0134}{0.0134}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.213}{0.0134}=15.89\approx 16$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.0261}{0.0134}=1.95\approx 2$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 1 : 16 : 2

The empirical formula for the given compound is $CH_{16}O_2$

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 = 116.2 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 60 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{116.2g/mol}{60g/mol}=1.94\approx 2$

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

$C_{(1\times 2)}H_{(16\times 2)}O_{(2\times 2)}=C_2H_{32}O_4$

Hence, the molecular formula for the given organic compound is $C_2H_{32}O_4$

How do decomposers interact with producers and consumers in an ecosystem

fenix001 [56]

Best Answer: producers use nutrients in the soil > consumers eat the producers, obtaining the energy and nutrients that the plant took > the consumer dies and is decomposed by a decomposer (usually decomposing bacteria), which replaces the nutrients back into the soil > producers use the nutrients in the soil.

now put that into your own words; if you cant, try drawing pictures to help you :) that might help you revise too, but remember to add info underneath, otherwise you might not understand it when you come back to it later
