Answer:
Empirical formula: CH₃O
Empirical formula mass = 31 g/mol
Explanation:
Data Given:
Molecular Formula = C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀
Empirical Formula = ?
Empirical Formula mass =
Solution
Empirical Formula:
Empirical formula is the simplest ration of atoms in the molecule but not all numbers of atoms in a compound.
So,
The ratio of the molecular formula should be divided by whole number to get the simplest ratio of molecule
As
C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀ Consist of 10 Carbon (C) atoms, 30 Hydrogen (H) atoms, and 10 Oxygen (O) atoms.
Now
Look at the ratio of these three atoms in the compound
C : H : O
10 : 30 : 10
Divide the ratio by two to get simplest ratio
C : H : O
10/10 : 30/10 : 10/10
1 : 3 : 1
So for the empirical formula the simplest ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen is 1:3:1
So the empirical formula will be
Empirical formula of C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀ = CH₃O
Now
To find the empirical formula mass in g/mol
Formula mass:
Formula mass is the total sum of the atomic masses of all the atoms present in a formula unit.
**Note:
if we represent the molar mass of the empirical formula for one mol in grams then it is written as g/mol
So,
As the empirical formula of C₁₀H₃₀O₁₀ is CH₃O
Then Its empirical formula mass will be
CH₃O
Atomic Mass of C = 12
Atomic Mass of H = 3
Atomic Mass of O = 16
Total Molar mass of CH₃O
CH₃O = 12 + 3(1) + 16
CH₃O = 12 + 3 + 16
CH₃O = 31 g/mol
Atomic mass is equal to the total number of electrons neutrons and protons
There are 30 protons and 39 neutrons in the nucleus.
This must me the isotope of an element with an atomic mass close to 69 u.
The only candidates are Zn and Ga.
Zn has a zinc-69 isotope with mass 68.926 u.
Ga has a gallium -69 isotope with mass 68.925 u.
The isotope is probably
.
It has 30 protons and 39 neutrons.
Answer: I just took the test. The answer is D! (A single replacement reaction takes place because sodium is more reactive than hydrogen.)
The Equator is where the doldrums are found.
