Answer:

Molecular formula = C₂H₄Cl₂

Explanation:

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula consist of symbols of elements present in compound with numbers of atoms of each element in subscript.

Empirical formula:

It is the simplest formula gives the ratio of atoms of different elements in small whole number .

Given data:

Percentage of hydrogen = 4.07%

Percentage of Cl = 71.65%

Percentage of carbon = 24.27%

Molar mass = 99 g/mol

Molecular formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of H = 4.07 / 1.01 = 4.0

Number of gram atoms of Cl = 71.65 / 35.5 = 2.0

Number of gram atoms of C = 24.27 / 12 = 2.0

Atomic ratio:

           H              :          C             :         Cl

          4/2            :        2/2            :       2/2

           2               :          1             :        1

C : H : Cl = 1 : 2 : 1

Empirical formula is CH₂Cl.

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

Empirical formula mass  = 12+1×2+ 35.5 = 49.5

n =  99/49.5

n = 2

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 2 ( CH₂Cl)

Molecular formula = C₂H₄Cl₂

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

Answer: 1. 2Al+3CuCl_2\rightarrow 2AlCl_3+3Cu

2. 3 moles of CuCl_2 : 2 moles of Al

3. 0.33 moles of CuCl_2 : 0.92 moles of Al

4. CuCl_2 is the limiting reagent and Al is the excess reagent.

5. Theoretical yield of AlCl_3 is 29.3 g

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} Al=\frac{25.0g}{27g/mol}=0.92moles

\text{Moles of} CuCl_2=\frac{45.0g}{134g/mol}=0.33moles

The balanced chemical equation is:

2Al+3CuCl_2\rightarrow 2AlCl_3+3Cu  

According to stoichiometry :

3 moles of CuCl_2 require = 2 moles of Al

Thus 0.33 moles of CuCl_2 will require=\frac{2}{3}\times 0.33=0.22moles  of Al

Thus CuCl_2 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and Al is the excess reagent.

As 3 moles of CuCl_2 give = 2 moles of AlCl_3

Thus 0.33 moles of CuCl_2 give =\frac{2}{3}\times 0.33=0.22moles  of AlCl_3

Theoretical yield of AlCl_3=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.22moles\times 133.34g/mol=29.3

Thus 29.3 g of aluminium chloride is formed.

Will NaBr, CO2, Ca3(PO4), or KZS raise a liquid's boiling point the most when
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

K_2S

Explanation:

According to the boiling point elevation law described by the equation \Delta T_b = iK_bb, the increase in boiling point is directly proportional to the van 't Hoff factor.

The van 't Hoff factor for nonelectrolytes is 1, while for ionic substances, it is equal to the number of moles of ions produced when 1 mole of salt dissolves.

NaBr would produce 2 moles of ions per 1 mole of dissolved substance, sodium and bromide ions.

Ca_3(PO_4)_2 is insoluble in water, so it would barely dissociate and wouldn't practically change the boiling point.

K_2S would dissociate into 3 moles of ions per 1 mole of substance, two potassium cations and one sulfide anion.

CO_2 is a gas, it would form some amount of carbonic acid when dissolved, however, carbonic acid is molecular and would yield i value of i = 1.

Therefore, potassium sulfide would raise a liquid's boiling point the most if all concentrations are equal.
