What is “Polymerization” is your answer
Water has a chemical formula of H2O. This means that for every 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen, one mole of water will be formed.
Note that hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are both biatomic molecules.
(1) (182 mol H2) x (1 mol H2O/ 1 mol H2) = 182 mol H2O
(2) (86 mol O2) x (2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2) = 172 mol H2O
We choose the smaller number of the two as the answer to this item. Thus, the answer to this question is 172 mol of H2O can be formed out of the given quantities.
Combustion reaction for menthol is as follows;
CxHyOz + O₂ ---> xCO₂ + H₂O
Mass of CO₂ formed - 28.16 mg
Therefore number of moles formed - 28.16/ 44 g/mol = 0.64 mmol
Mass of water formed - 11.53 mg
number of water moles formed - 11.53 mg/18 g/mol = 0.64 mmol
From CO₂,
1 mol of CO₂ - 1 mol of C and 2 mol of O
therefore number of C moles - 0.64 mmol
O moles - 1.28 mmol
from H₂O
1 mol of H₂O - 2 mol of H and 1 mol of O
number of H moles - 1.28 mmol
O moles - 0.64 mmol
Mass of menthol initially - 10 mg
in reactions, the masses of products are equal to the masses of reactants. The excess mass to the products formed is due to O₂ in air
Original mass of menthol - 10 mg
mass of water and CO₂ - 11.53 mg + 28.16 mg = 39.69
Difference in mass - 39.69 - 10 = 29.69 mg
This difference comes from O moles in air - 29.69 mg/ 16 g/mol = 1.8556 mmol
then O moles coming from menthol - (1.28 + 0.64) - 1.8556 = 0.064 mmol
In menthol
C moles - 0.64 mmol
H moles - 1.28 mmol
O moles - 0.064 mmol
ratios of C:H:O
C H O
0.64 1.28 0.064
x1000 x1000 x1000 to get whole numbers
640 1280 64
10 20 1
Simplest ratio of C:H:O is 10:20:1
therefore empirical formula of menthol is C₁₀H₂₀O

Boyle's Law: P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
- P₁ is pressure 1
- V₁ is volume 1
- P₂ is pressure 2
- V₂ is volume 2
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[Given] P₁ = 2.02 atm
[Given] V₁ = 4.0 L
[Given] V₂ = 12.0 L
[Solve] P₂
<u>Step 2: Solve</u>
- Substitute in variables [Boyle's Law]: (2.02 atm)(4.0 L) = P₂(12.0 L)
- [Pressure] Multiply: 8.08 atm · L = P₂(12.0 L)
- [Pressure] [Division Property of Equality] Isolate unknown: 0.673333 atm = P₂
- [Pressure] Rewrite: P₂ = 0.673333 atm
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs as our smallest.</em>
0.673333 atm ≈ 0.67 atm
