<span>Endothermic reactions take in heat from the environment in order to react while exothermic reactions release heat during the reaction. For this, D must be true as the products have less energy because they have released heat during the reaction. A and C are incorrect because they products and reactants are equal and B is wrong because the energy of the products would be more as the reaction took in heat.</span>
Given the percentage composition of HC as C → 81.82 % and H → 18.18 %
So the ratio of number if atoms of C and H in its molecule can will be:
C : H = 81.82 12 : 18.18 1 C : H = 6.82 : 18.18 = 6.82 6.82 : 18.18 6.82 = 1 : 2.66 ≈ 3 : 8
So the Empirical Formula of hydrocarbon is:
C 3 H 8
As the mass of one litre of hydrocarbon is same as that of C O 2 The molar mass of the HC will be same as that of C O 2 i.e 44 g mol
Now let Molecular formula of the HC be ( C 3 H 8 ) n
Using molar mass of C and H the molar mass of the HC from its molecular formula is:
( 3 × 12 + 8 × 1 ) n = 44 n So 44 n = 44 ⇒ n = 1
Hence the molecular formula of HC is C 3 H 8
Does that help?
Aqueous compounds are a mixtures of two electrolytes – the compound and water.
Does this help a little?
