Answer:

The empirical formula is, C4H4S

Explanation:

Number of moles of carbon = 1.119 g/ 44g/mol = 0.025 moles

Mass of Carbon= 0.025 moles × 12 g/ mole = 0.3 g

Number of moles of hydrogen = 0.229/18g/mol × 2 = 0.025 moles

Mass of hydrogen = 0.025 moles × 1 = 0.025 g

Number of moles of sulphur = 0.407g/ 64 g/mol = 0.0064 moles

Mass of sulphur= 0.0064 moles ×32 = 0.2 g

Now we obtain the mole ratios by dividing through by the lowest ratio.

C- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, H- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, S- 0.0064 moles/0.0064 moles

C4H4S

Which example indicates that a chemical change has occurred? *
andrezito [222]

Answer:

A. When two aqueous solutions are mixed, a precipitate is formed.

Explanation:

The precipitate (a solid substance that falls from the liquid) is the result of a chemical reaction taking place between the liquids.

The other three answer choices are indicative of physical changes (temperature change, phase change, color change).

You have 1 mole of a gas at STP. If you apply the ideal gas law what is the approximate volume of the gas?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

A) 22.4L

Explanation:

we know, ideal gas law states

PV=nRT

V=nRT/P

At STP,

T= 273.15K     P=1atm         R=0.082L.atm/mol/K          n=1 mole

V=(1*0.082*273.15)/ 1

V=22.4L

He molecular formula mass of this compound is 180 amu . what are the subscripts in the actual molecular formula?
mezya [45]
I can't actually answer this one if the empirical formula is not given. Luckily, I've found a similar problem from another website. The problem is shown in the picture attached. It shows that the empirical formula is CH₂O. Let's calculate the molar mass of the empirical formula.

Molar mass of E.F = 12 + 2(1) + 16 = 30 g/mol

Then, let's divide this to the molar mass of the molecular formula.
Molar mass of M.F/Molar mass of E.F = 180/30 = 6

Therefore, let's multiply 6 to each subscript in the empirical formula to determine the actual molecular formula.
<em>Actual molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆</em>
