1. A 9.941 gram sample of an organic compound containing C, H and O is analyzed by combustion analysis and 14.57 grams of CO2 an
salantis [7]

Answer:

1) empirical formula = CH2O ; the molecular formula = C2H402

2) empirical formule = C3H404 = Molecular formula

Explanation:

CxHyOz  → CO2 + H2O

⇒ So for CO2 we can say that for each 1 C-atom (12g) there are 2 O-atoms (32g).

This means the ratio is 12g C/ 32g O

CO2 has a molar mass of 44 g/mole

in 14.57 grams of CO2 there is: (12g Carbon / 44g CO2) * 14.57 g CO2 = 3.9736 g Carbon

⇒For H2O we can do the same:

The ratio of each element in H2O is: 2 H-atoms/ 1 O-atom  This is 2g H/ 16g O

In 5.966 g of water there are: [2 g H / 18 g H2O] * 5.966 g H2O = 0.6629 g H

⇒The original sample had 9.941 g of Sample - 3.9736 g of C - 0.6629 g of H =  5.3045 g of O

2) Calculate number of moles

C: 3.9736 g / 12.0 g/mol = 0.3311 mol

H: 0.6629 g / 1.0 g/mol = 0.6629 mol

O: 5.3045g / 16.0 g/mol =  0.3315 mol

3) Now we should divide each number of mole by the smallest number (0.3311) to find the proportion of the elements

C: 0.3311/ 0.3311= 1

H: 0.6629 / 0.3311 = 2

O: 0.3315/ 0.3311  = 1

This gives us the empirical formula of CH2O

4) Calculate the mass of the empirical formula

Molar mass of Carbon = 12g /mole

Molar mass of Hydrogen = 1g /mole

Molar mass of Oxygen = 16g /mole

mass of the empirical formule = 12 + 2*1 + 16 = 30g

5) Calculate the molecular formula

mass of molecular formule / mass of empirical formula = n

We have to multiply the empirical formula by n to get the molecular formula.

60 / 30 = 2 = n

If we multiply CH2O by 2 we'll get: C2H4O2

If we control this by calculating the molar mass:

2*12 + 4*1.01 + 2*16 = 60.04 g/mole

Then, the molecular formula is C2H4O2

CxHyOz  → CO2 + H2O

⇒ So for CO2 we can say that for each 1 C-atom (12g) there are 2 O-atoms (32g).

This means the ratio is 12g C/ 32g O

CO2 has a molar mass of 44 g/mole

in 17.97 grams of CO2 there is: (12g Carbon / 44g CO2) * 17.97 g CO2 = 4.90 g Carbon

⇒For H2O we can do the same:

The ratio of each element in H2O is: 2 H-atoms/ 1 O-atom  This is 2g H/ 16g O

In 4.905 g of water there are: [2 g H / 18 g H2O] * 4.905 g H2O = 0.545 g H

⇒The original sample had 14.16 g of Sample - 4.90 g of C - 0.545 g of H =  8.715g of O

2) Calculate number of moles

C: 4.90 g / 12.0 g/mol = 0.4083 mol

H: 0.545 g / 1.0 g/mol = 0.545 mol

O: 8.715g / 16.0 g/mol =  0.5447 mol

3) Now we should divide each number of mole by the smallest number (0.4083) to find the proportion of the elements

C: 0.4083/ 0.4083= 1

H: 0.545 / 0.4083 =1.33

O: 0.5447/ 0.4083  = 1.33

We should multiply everything by 3

This gives us the empirical formula of C3H4O4

4) Calculate the mass of the empirical formula

Molar mass of Carbon = 12g /mole

Molar mass of Hydrogen = 1g /mole

Molar mass of Oxygen = 16g /mole

mass of the empirical formule = 3*12 + 4*1 + 4*16 = 104

5) Calculate the molecular formula

mass of molecular formule / mass of empirical formula = n

We have to multiply the empirical formula by n to get the molecular formula.

104 / 104 = 1 = n

This means the empirical formula = molecular formula = C3H4O4

Which wind blows cool air toward the sea at night ?
alexira [117]

Answer:

Land breeze is the wind that blows cool air from land towards sea at night.

Explanation:

Land breeze is a type of wind which is cool and blows towards sea. It occurs due to the difference in the temperature of water and land. At night, the lands cool quickly due to the removal of heat from it. So the air that is present on land is cool down and this air moves towards sea. So this breez is called land breeze because it moves from land.

A 365 L balloon is blown up inside at 283 K. It is then taken outside in the hot sun and Heated to 300K. What is the new volume?
asambeis [7]

V₁ = initial Volume of the balloon after it is blown up = 365 L

V₂ = new Volume of the balloon after it is taken outside = ?

T₁ = initial temperature of the balloon = 283 K

T₂ = new temperature of the balloon = 300 K

using the equation

V₁/V₂ = T₁/T₂

365/V₂ = 283/300

V₂ = 387 L
