To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:
58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C
9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H
31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O
Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:
4.9/1.96 = 2.5
9.9/1.96 = 6
1.96/1.96 = 1
Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.
So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.
A. This is a FALSE statement because Metals in Group 1 form cations with a +1 charge and not -1.
B. This is a TRUE statement.
C. This is a FALSE statement because metals do not form anions i.e. negatively charged ions but form cations i.e. positively charged ions.
D. This is a FALSE statement because metals do not form anions i.e. negatively charged ions but form cations i.e. positively charged ions.
Answer:
1.65 L
Explanation:
The equation for the reaction is given as:
A + B ⇄ C
where;
numbers of moles = 0.386 mol C (g)
Volume = 7.29 L
Molar concentration of C = 
= 0.053 M
A + B ⇄ C
Initial 0 0 0.530
Change +x +x - x
Equilibrium x x (0.0530 - x)
![K = \frac{[C]}{[A][B]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=K%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BC%5D%7D%7B%5BA%5D%5BB%5D%7D)
where
K is given as ; 78.2 atm-1.
So, we have:
![78.2=\frac{[0.0530-x]}{[x][x]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=78.2%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5B0.0530-x%5D%7D%7B%5Bx%5D%5Bx%5D%7D)


Using quadratic formula;

where; a = 78.2 ; b = 1 ; c= - 0.0530
=
or 
=
or 
= 0.0204 or -0.0332
Going by the positive value; we have:
x = 0.0204
[A] = 0.0204
[B] = 0.0204
[C] = 0.0530 - x
= 0.0530 - 0.0204
= 0.0326
Total number of moles at equilibrium = 0.0204 + 0.0204 + 0.0326
= 0.0734
Finally, we can calculate the volume of the cylinder at equilibrium using the ideal gas; PV =nRT
if we make V the subject of the formula; we have:

where;
P (pressure) = 1 atm
n (number of moles) = 0.0734 mole
R (rate constant) = 0.0821 L-atm/mol-K
T = 273.15 K (fixed constant temperature )
V (volume) = ???

V = 1.64604
V ≅ 1.65 L
I legitimately think it's 87.3 grams
