The balanced equation is:
BaCl2 (aq) + Na2SO4 (aq) ----> BaSO4(s)+ 2 NaCl(aq)
This is a double replacement reaction.
The reactants are:
a) BaCl2: barium chloride, a ionic compound, therefore soluble in water,
b) Na2SO4: sodium sulfate, another ionic compound, therefore also soluble in water.
The products are:
c) BaSO4: barium sulfate, a solid not soluble in water which precipitates.
d) NaCl: sodium chloride, an ionic compound, therefore soluble in water.
Answer:
C₅H₁₀O₅
Explanation:
1. Calculate the mass of each element in 2.78 mg of X.
(a) Mass of C

(b) Mass of H

(c) Mass of O
Mass of O = 3.5 - 1.400 - 0.2349 = 1.87 g
2. Calculate the moles of each element

3. Calculate the molar ratios
Divide all moles by the smallest number of moles.

4. Round the ratios to the nearest integer
C:H:O = 1:2:1
5. Write the empirical formula
The empirical formula is CH₂O.
6. Calculate the molecular formula.
EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016 + 16.00) u = 30.03 u
The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.
MF = (EF)ₙ

MF = (CH₂O)₅ = C₅H₁₀O₅
The molecular formula of X is C₅H₁₀O₅.
A mineral is a naturally occurring, inorganic solid with a definite chemical composition and a crystalline structure formed by geological processes. A rock is an aggregate of one or more minerals whereas a rock may also include organic remains and mineraloids.
6.2 grams of CO2 = 1.408786739226764 moles
