Answer:
Compound
Explanation:
We want to know if it's a compound or a mixture.
An example of a mixture is salt water: you can heat it hot enough to boil off the water, leaving only the salt. This is a physical change, which is how you know it's a mixture.
Something like gold is a compound: if you heat it, or hit it, you'll still only have gold. You can only break it down by chemical means, which is how you know it's a compound.
<span>A compound is found to be 40.0% carbon, 6.7% hydrogen and 53.5% oxygen. Its molecular mass is 60. g/mol.
</span>Q1)
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components making up a compound.
the percentages have been given, therefore we can calculate for 100 g of the compound.
C H O
Mass in 100 g 40.0 g 6.7 g 53.5 g
Molar mass 12 g/mol 1 g/mol 16 g/mol
Number of moles 40.0/12= 3.33 6.7/1 = 6.7 53.5/16 = 3.34
Divide by the least number of moles
3.33/3.33 = 1 6.7/3.33 = 2.01 3.34/3.33 = 1.00
after rounding off
C - 1
H - 2
O - 1
Empirical formula - CH₂O
Q2)
Molecular formula is the actual number of components making up the compound.
To find the number of empirical units we have to find the mass of one empirical unit.
Mass of one empirical unit = CH₂O - 12 + (1x2) + 16 = 30 g
Mass of one mole of compound = 60 g
Number of empirical units = 60 g / 30 g = 2
Therefore molecular formula - 2(CH₂O)
Molecular formula - C₂H₄O₂
Carbon is stored in the ocean
Answer:
The answer is 159.6882.
Assuming you are converting between grams Fe2O3 and mole.
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>
= 226 Liters of oxygen
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
We use the equation;
LiClO4 (s) → 2O2 (g) + LiCl, to get the moles of oxygen;
Moles of LiClO4;
(500 g LiClO4) / (106.3916 g LiClO4/mol)
= 4.6996 moles
Moles of oxygen;
But, for every 1 mol LiClO4, two moles of O2 are produced;
= 9.3992 moles of Oxygen
V = nRT / P
= (9.3992 mol) x (8.3144621 L kPa/K mol) x (21 + 273) K / (101.5 kPa)
= 226 L of oxygen
