We are given with the percentage composition of oxygen in an oxide from phosphorus and oxygen equal to 43.6 percent. that is the phosphorus is equal to 56.4 percent. we divide each with the molar mass and divide each with the smaller quantity. P then is equal to 1 and O is equal to 1.5. In this case, the empirical formula is P2O3.

iVinArrow [24]
When you heat up most substances it gives them more Kinetic energy and the substance becomes less arranged in an ordered state, further apart and move faster. therefore the answer is the first: They gain a higher average kinetic energy

The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be prod
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The grams that would be produced  from 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol is 7.923grams

calculation

Step 1: write the chemical equation for the reaction

CH3CH2CH2COOH + CH3CH2OH →  CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3  +H2O

step 2: find the moles of butanoic acid

moles= mass/ molar mass

=  7.70 g/ 88 g/mol=0.0875 moles

Step 3:  use the mole ratio to determine the moles of ethyl butyrate

moles ratio of CH3CH2CH2COOH :CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3  is 1:1 therefore the moles of CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3 = 0.0875  x78/100=0.0683moles

step 4: find mass = moles x molar mass

 =  0.0683 moles  x116 g/mol=7.923grams
