Answer:

C6H10Cl2

Explanation:

Convert mass % to mass

100g of the compound contains from each elements: 46,3g Cl; 47,05g C and 6,63g H

Molar mass

Cl = 35.5 g/mol

C = 12 g/mol

H = 1 g/mol

Find the number of moles:

Chlorine: 46.4g /35.5g/mol = 1,3 moles

Carbon: 47,05g/12 g/mol = 3,92 moles

hydrogen: 6,63g/1g/mol = 6,63 moles

Molar fraction:

Cl = 1,30/ 1,30 = 1

C = 3,92/ 1,30 = 3,01

H = 6,63/ 1.30 = 5,01

C3H5Cl = 76,5 g/ mol x 2  = 153 g/ mol

So multiply the molecular formula by two = C6H10Cl2

What is the new boiling point if 25 g of NaCl is dissolved in 1.0 kg of water
Inessa05 [86]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: 

Given that:
delta Tb = Kbm Kb H2O = 0.52 degrees C/m 
<span>delta Tf = Kfm Kf H2O = 1.86 degrees C/m 
</span>
We need to know the formula for Molality.
molality = mol solute / kg solvent 

<span>We are given the amount of solute in grams
Since amount of solute is given in moles, we have to convert 25 g NaCl to moles. Divide by molar mass. </span>

<span>25 g NaCl / 58.5 g/mol = 0.427 mol </span>

<span>Then, use the formula for molality. </span>

<span>molality = mol solute / kg solvent </span>
<span>= 0.427 / 1 </span>
<span>= 0.427 m </span>

<span>Use now the formula to get the boiling point.</span>

<span>delta Tb = Kbm </span>
<span>= (0.52)(0.427) </span>
<span>= 0.22C </span>

Under what conditions do you expect hydrogen gas to deviate from ideal gas behavior? Explain your answer.
Ostrovityanka [42]
Hydrogen is a non-polar gas with very weak intermolecular forces of attraction. Hydrogen will deviate from the ideal gas behavior at high pressure.
