Answer:

D) HCOOCH2CH3

Explanation:

An isomer of a compound is defined as a chemical substances with the same formula (That is, same atoms) but in different structures.

For propanoic acid, there are <em>3 atoms of C, 6 atoms of H and 2 atoms of oxygen.</em>

A) CH2CHCOOH . Here you have 3 atoms of C but 4 atoms of H. That means this compound is not an isomer.

B) CH3CH2CH2COOH . Here, there are 4 atoms of C. Thus, is not an isomer.

C) CH3CH(OH)CH2OH. This structure has 3 atoms of C, but 8 atoms of H. Thus, is not an isomer.

D) HCOOCH2CH3. Here, there are 3 atoms of C, 6 atoms of H and 2 atoms of O. Thus, this structure <em>is an isomer of propanoic acid.</em>

Answer:

D) HCOOCH2CH3

Explanation:

Option D is an isomer of propanoic acid because this compound has the same number of atoms as the acid; 3 carbons, 6 hydrogens and 2 oxygen. They may differ in some properties but their main difference must be their molecular structure, that is, the arrangement of their atoms.

What volume is occupied by 3.760 g of oxygen gas at a pressure of 88.4
Lorico [155]

Answer:

3.2 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of oxygen = 3.760 g

Pressure of gas = 88.4 Kpa (88.4×1000 = 88400 Nm⁻²)

Temperature = 19°C (19+273.15 = 292.15 K)

R = 8.314 Nm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

Volume occupied = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 3.760 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.12 mol

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant

T = temperature in kelvin

V = nRT/P

V = 0.12 mol ×  8.314 Nm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹ × 292.15 K /88400 Nm⁻²

V = 291.472 Nm /88400 Nm⁻²

V = 0.0032 m³

m³ to L:

V = 0.0032×1000 = 3.2 L
