0.11 moles of the gas are present in the sample of dry gas.

Explanation:

Data given:

mass of the gas = 2.1025 grams

volume of the gas = 2.850 litres

temperature = 22 degrees (273.15+22) = 295.15 K

Pressure = 740 mm Hg or 0.973 atm

moles of the gas =?

R = 0.08206 atmL/Mole K

From the ideal gas law the number of moles can be calculated in the sample of dry gas. Number of moles will be determined by the pressure exerted, volume and temperature of the gas.

The formula:

PV = nRT

n = $\frac{PV}{RT}$

putting the values in the above equation:

n = $\frac{2.850 x 0.973}{0.08206 X 295.15}$

= 0.11 moles

0.11 moles of the dry gas is present in the sample given.

Answer: <em>C₃H₆O</em>

Explanation:

1) First, calculate the chemical composition, which you do using balance mass using the data given.

2) Data:

i) mass of ethyl butyrate: 2.22 mg

ii) mass of CO₂: 5.06 mg

iii) mass of H₂O: 2.06 mg

3) Solution

i) All the carbon in CO₂ produced was present in the ehtyl butyrate sample.

ii) The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol

iii) Use proportionality:

12.01 g C / 44.01 g CO₂ = x / 5.06 mg C ⇒ x = 1.38 mg C

iv) All the H in H₂O was present in the original sample of ethyl butyrate

v) The molar mass of H₂O is 18.015 g/mol

vi) Use proportionality

2.016 g H / 18.015 g H₂O = x / 2.06 mg H ⇒ x = 0.23 mg H

vii) Mass balance:

mass of O in the sample = mass of the sample - mass of H - mass of C

mass of O = 2.22 mg - 1.38 mg - 0.23 mg = 0.61 mg O.

viii) Composition:

C = 1.38 mg

H = 0.23 mg

O = 0.61 mg

Which in terms of composition is the same that:

C = 1.38 g

H = 0.23 g

O = 0.61 g

ix) Divide each by the molar atomic mass of the corresponding element, to obtain the number of moles:

C = 1.38 g / 12.01 g/mol = 0.115 mol

H = 0.23 g / 1.008 g/mol = 0.228 mol

O = 0.61 g / 16 g/mol = 0.0381 mol

x) Divide each by the least number of moles to obtain mole proportion

C = 0.115 / 0.0381 = 3.02 ≈ 3

H = 0.228 / 0.0381 = 1.98 ≈ 5.98 ≈ 6

O = 0.0381 / 0.0381 = 1

xi) Therefore the empirical formula searched is <em>C₃H₆O</em>.

Please pleaseee help mw i suck :( at this

Answer:

Most likely Potential Energy

Explanation:

This is possible because potential energy is stored energy that an object contains until moved, once moved it transfers its potential energy into kinetic energy. In this problem, the kinetic energy in the torch is changed into potential energy once placed on the shelf and deprived of movement. Thus your only viable answer is Potential energy!

Hope this helps, please comment in case wrong so I may figure it out and correct my mistakes
