Explanation:
Answer:
20.0/1 x 1mole/58.44=0.34
(Atomic mass of salt)
Been a minute since I've done this, but this is how I remember doing it, soo..hope this helps!
The reaction is as follows:
2 H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 H₂O(g) . ΔH = - 483.5 kJ
Using the change in enthalpy and heat, calculate the moles as follows:
Moles of H₂ = -

x 2 mol H₂
= - 216 kJ / (-483.5 kJ) x 2 mol H₂
= 0.893 mol H₂
Calculate the mass of H₂ using the moles and molar mass as follows:
0.893 mol H₂ x (2.02 g H₂ / 1 mol H₂) = 1.79 g H₂
Therefore, the mass of hydrogen gas is 1.79 g
Similar - Both are organic compounds and fossil fuels
Different - natural gas is made up of lighter organic compounds than petrolium
To determine the empirical formula of the compound, we assume a basis of 100 g of this compound. We calculate as follows:
C = 68.75 g
H = 10.90 g
O = 20.35 g
We convert these mass to moles,
C = 68.75 g / 12.01 g/mol = 5.72 mol
H = 10.90 g / 1.01 g/mol = 10.79 mol
O = 20.35 g / 16 g/mol = 1.27 mol
C = 5.72 mol / 1.27 mol = 5
H = 10.79 mol / 1.27 mol = 8
O = 1.27 mol / 1.27 mol = 1
