Answer:
- <em>Option d. Its empirical formula is CH</em><em>₂</em><em>.</em>
Explanation:
The percent composition of the compound allow you to calculate the empirical formula of the compound but is not enough to calculate either the molar mass or the molecular formula. So, since now you can discard options b. and c.
Telling that it is a hydrocarbon (option e.) is true but very vague compared with finding the empirical formula. So, you can also discard the option e.
The fact that the product has a triple bond cannot be concluded from the percent composition, you should find the molecular formula to assert whether it contains or not a triple bond. So, you could discard option a., which lets you only with choice d.
Let us find the empirical formula to be certain that it is CH₂.
1. <u>First, assume a basis of 100 g of compound</u>:
- H: 14.5% × 100 g = 14.0 g
- C: 85.5% × 100 g = 85.5 g
2. <u>Divide each element by its atomic mass to find number of moles</u>:
- H: 14.0 g / 1.008 g/mol = 14.38 mol
- C: 85.5 g / 12.011 g/mol = 7.12 mol
3. <u>Divide both amounts by the smallest number, to find the mole ratio</u>:
- H: 14.38 mol / 7.12 mol ≈ 2
- C: 7.12 mol / 7.12 mol = 1.
Hence, the ratio is 2:1 and the empirical formula is CH₂.
Answer:
energy
Explanation:
The photon of light that is emitted as an electron drops back to its original orbit is energy and this energy is released during de-excitation process.
The electron is jumped into higher level and back into lower level by absorbing and releasing the energy.
The process is called excitation and de-excitation.
Excitation:
When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits. For example if electron jumped from K to L it must absorbed the energy which is equal the energy difference of these two level. The excited electron thus move back to lower energy level which is K by releasing the energy because electron can not stay longer in higher energy level and comes to ground state.
De-excitation:
When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum

Answer:
<u>CH</u>
Explanation:
Molecular formula of propene : <u>C₃H₆</u>
Take the HCF of carbon and hydrogen atoms :
Then, we can write the formula as :
- 3CH
- This means there are 3 moles present
Empirical Formula :
- Molecular Formula / No. of moles
- C₃H₆ / 3
- <u>CH</u>
<u></u>
The empirical formula of propene is <u>CH</u>
