A hydrocarbon contains 85.7% carbon and the remainder
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

CH₂ ;  67.1 %

Explanation:

To determine the empirical formula we need to find what the mole ratio is in whole numbers of the atoms in the compound. To do that we will first need the atomic weights of C and H and then perform our calculation

Assume 100 grams of the compound.

# mol C = 85.7 g / 12.01 g/mol = 7.14 mol

# mol H = 14.3 g /  1.008 g/mol = 14.19 mol

The proportion is 14.9 mol H/ 7.14 mol C = 2 mol H/ 1 mol C

So the empirical formula is CH₂

For the second part we will need to first calculate the theoretical yield for the 12.03 g NaBH₄  reacted and then calculate the percent yield given the 0.295 g B₂H₆ produced.

We need to calculate the moles of  NaBH₄ ( M.W = 37.83 g/mol )

1.203 g  NaBH₄ / 37.83 g/mol =  0.0318 mol

Theoretical yield from balanced chemical equation:

0.0318 mol NaBH₄ x 1 mol B₂H₆ / mol NaBH₄ = 0.0159 mol B₂H₆

Theoretical mass yield B₂H₆ = 0.0159 mol x 27.66 g/ mol =  0.440 g

% yield = 0.295 g/ 0.440 g x 100 = 67.1 %

What does the subscript 2 indicate in the formula O2? Oxygen transferred 2 electrons to form the bond. Each oxygen atom is shari
Tom [10]

Answer:There are two atoms in the molecule.

Explanation: All gases are diatomic i.e they are covalently bonded to another atom of the same element in order to attain stability. O atom is usually unstable because of it's incompletely filled outermost shell.

In the reaction MgCl2 + 2KOH Mg(OH)2 + 2KCl, if 3 moles MgCl2 are added to 4 moles KOH, what determines how much Mg(OH)2 is made
LenKa [72]
The correct option is C. The amount of MgCl2. we know this because <span>no matter how much you increase KOH, if you dont increase Mgcl2, the amount of Mg(OH)2 remains the same. Hope this works for you</span>

How many moles of O2 are produced when 0.500mol of KO2 reacts in this fashion?
Shtirlitz [24]
I think you means the KO2 reacts with H2O. The equation of this reaction is 4KO2+2H2O->4KOH +3O2. The ratio of mole number of O2 and KO2 is 3:4. So the mole number of O2 produced is 0.500/4*3=0.375 mol.

Kernel structure for manganese
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The nucleus consists of 25 protons (red) and 30 neutrons (blue). 25 electrons (green) bind to the nucleus, successively occupying available electron shells (rings). Manganese is a transition metal in group 7, period 4, and the d-block of the periodic table. It has a melting point of 1246 degrees Celsius.
