On combustion, 1.0 L of a gaseous compound of hydrogen, carbon, and sulfur gives 2.0 L of CO2, 3.0 L of H2O vapor, and 1.0 L of

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The empirical formula of the organic compound is = $C_2H_6S_1$

Explanation:

At STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

Moles of $CO_2$ gas at STP occupying 2.0 L = n

$n\times 22.4L=2.0L$

$n=\frac{2.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.08929 mol$

Moles of carbon in 0.08920 mol = 1 × 0.08920 mol = 0.08920 mol

Moles of $H_2O$ gas at STP occupying 3.0 L = n'

$n'\times 22.4L=3.0L$

$n'=\frac{3.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.1339 mol$

Moles of hydrogen in 0.1339 moles of water vapor = 2 × 0.1339 mol = 0.2678 mol

Moles of $SO_2$ gas at STP occupying 1.0 L = n''

$n''\times 22.4L=1.0L$

$n''=\frac{1.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.04464 mol$

Moles of sulfur in 0.04464 mol = 1 × 0.04464 mol = 0.04464 mol

Moles of carbon , hydrogen and sulfur constituent of that organic compound .

Moles of carbon in 0.08920 mol = 1 × 0.08920 mol = 0.08920 mol

Moles of hydrogen in 0.1339 moles of water vapor = 2 × 0.1339 mol = 0.2678 mol

Moles of sulfur in 0.04464 mol = 1 × 0.04464 mol = 0.04464 mol

For empirical; formula divide the least number of moles from all the moles of elements.

carbon = $\frac{0.08920 mol}{0.04464 mol}=2$

Hydrogen = $\frac{0.2678 mol}{0.04464 mol}=6$

Sulfur = $\frac{0.04464 mol}{0.04464 mol}=1$

The empirical formula of the organic compound is = $C_2H_6S_1$

H2O+O2=H202, how would I balance this equation?

Sergio [31]

Answer:

2H2O2→2H2O+O2

Explanation:

This reaction is of the spontaneous decomposition of hydrogen peroxide down into water and oxygen.

Add 2 molecules of hydrogen peroxide and 2 molecules of water. Since oxygen is naturally diatomic, the total number of atoms of each element is now the same on both sides of the equation so it is balanced.

2H2O2→2H2O+O2

For the reaction 2A(g) â B(g), the equilibrium constant is Kp = 0.76. A reaction mixture initially contains 4.0 atm of gas (PA =

timofeeve [1]

Answer: (a) The reaction mixture will proceed toward products.

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of pressure of products to the pressure of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_p$

K is the constant of a certain reaction when it is in equilibrium, while Q is the quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.

For the given chemical reaction:

$2A(g)\rightleftharpoons B(g)$
