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

The pK of acetic acid is pK = 4.76. For a 0.1 M solution of acetic acid at a pH = 4.76 what is the concentration of [H+]?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

[H+] = 1.74 x 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

By definition pH = -log  [H+]

Therefore, given the pH,  all we have to do is  solve algebraically for  [H+] :

[H+]  = antilog ( -pH ) =  10^-4.76 = 1.74 x 10⁻⁵

4. Why do compounds form in nature?
frez [133]

so basically a atom type contains the same number of protons. Chemical bonds put elements together to form more complex molecules called compounds. A compound consists of two or more types of elements held together by covalent or ionic bonds. Elements can't be divided into smaller units not using large amounts of energy.
