The molecular formula will be a multiple of the empirical CH2O. One unit of CH2O has a mass of 12+2*1+16 = 30 g. This means that if our compound has a molecular mass of 180 g/mol, we can divide 180 / 30 = 6 units, and our compound has 6 units of CH2O. This means that its molecular formula is C6H12O6.

A sample of N2(g) was collected over water at 25°C and 730 torr in a container with a volume of 340 mL. The vapor pressure of wa
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

D. 0.36 g

Explanation:

When a gas is collected over water, the total pressure is the sum of the pressure of the gas and the pressure of the water vapor.

Ptotal = Pwater + PN₂

PN₂ = Ptotal - Pwater = 730 torr - 23.76 torr = 706 torr

We can find the mass of N₂ using the ideal gas equation.

P.V=n.R.T=\frac{m}{M} .R.T\\m=\frac{P.V.M}{R.T} =\frac{730torr.0.340L.28g/mol}{(0.08206atm.L/mol.K).298K} .\frac{1atm}{760torr} =0.36g

A sample of hydrogen gas at a pressure of 0.520 atm and a temperature of 26.2°C, occupies a volume of 15.4 liters. If the gas is
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

1.99 atm

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This include the following:

Initial pressure (P1) = 0.520 atm

Initial temperature (T1) = 26.2°C

Initial volume (V1) = 15.4L

Final temperature (T2) = constant = 26.2°C

Final volume (V2) = 4.02L

Final pressure (P2) =..?

Step 2:

Determination of the new pressure of the gas.

Since the temperature of the gas is constant, it means the gas is obeying Boyle's law. Thus, the new pressure of the gas can be obtained by applying the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P1V1 = P2V2

0.520 x 15.4 = P2 x 4.02

Divide both side by 4.02

P2 = (0.520 x 15.4) / 4.02

P2 = 1.99 atm

Therefore, the new pressure of the gas is 1.99 atm

C3H8 + O2 → CO2 + H2O
Irina18 [472]

Explanation:

Balance the following equation: C3H8 + O2 ----> CO2 + H2O. (There will be no need for state symbols.) First of all, to balance these equations, list the number of each atom, for both sides of the equation. In this example, it would be: The first step would be to balance out the carbons on the products side by multiplying CO2 by 3.  The balanced chemical equation for C3H8 +O2 = CO2 + H2O is C3H8 +5O2 = 3CO2 +4H2O. This is the chemical reaction in which C3H8 or propane burns in air or oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.
