First, you need to figure out the relative ratios of moles of carbon and hydrogen. You do this by first looking up the atomic weight of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Then you use those atomic weights to calculate the molar masses of H2O and CO2.
Carbon = 12.0107
Hydrogen = 1.00794
Oxygen = 15.999
Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488
Molar mass of CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087
Now using the calculated molar masses, determine how many moles of each product was generated. You do this by dividing the given mass by the molar mass.
moles H2O = 11.5 g / 18.01488 g/mole = 0.638361 moles
moles CO2 = 22.4 g / 44.0087 g/mole = 0.50899 moles
The number of moles of carbon is the same as the number of moles of CO2 since there's just 1 carbon atom per CO2 molecule.
Since there's 2 hydrogen atoms per molecule of H2O, you need to multiply the number of moles of H2O by 2 to get the number of moles of hydrogen.
moles C = 0.50899
moles H = 0.638361 * 2 = 1.276722
We can double check our math by multiplying the calculated number of moles of carbon and hydrogen by their respective atomic weights and see if we get the original mass of the hydrocarbon.
total mass = 0.50899 * 12.0107 + 1.276722 * 1.00794 = 7.400185
7.400185 is more than close enough to 7.40 given rounding errors, so the double check worked.
Now to find the empirical formula we need to find a ratio of small integers that comes close to the ratio of moles of carbon and hydrogen.
0.50899 / 1.276722 = 0.398669
0.398669 is extremely close to 4/10, so let's reduce that ratio by dividing both top and bottom by 2 giving 2/5.
Since the number of moles of carbon was on top, that ratio implies that the empirical formula for this unknown hydrocarbon is

Answer:
Photosynthesis
Explanation:
Carbon cycle involves the exchange of components between the hydrosphere, biosphere and atmosphere. During carbon cycle, materials such as gases, minerals which are necessary for life are interchange. For example, animals pass out faeces on the soil which is rich in urea. Urea decomposes to provide nitrogen into the soil through bioactive bacterials. The nitrogen is used up by plants to grow. During photosynthesis, plants uses carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and release oxygen for animals to use. It's like a purification system where one waste product from one organism is used by the other to survive.
Equation of photosynthesis
6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.
2NH₂ + O₂ → N₂ + 2H₂O
<u>Explanation:</u>
Balancing the equation means, the number of atoms on both sides of the equation must be the same.
In the case of the given equation, we have to find out whether it is balanced or not.
2NH₂ + O₂ → N₂ + 2H₂O
Atoms Number of atoms before balancing after balancing
LHS RHS LHS RHS
N 1 2 2 2
H 2 2 4 4
O 2 1 2 2
To balance the N atoms, we have to put 2 in front of NH₂, and then to balance the H, O atoms, we have to put 2 in front of H₂O, so that each atom in left hand as well as right hand side of the equation was balanced.
High temperature and low pressure<--Most likely
Low temperature and high pressure<----Less likely.
So the answer to this is Low temperature and high pressure.
To solve this we assume
that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is
expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas
the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of
temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:
P1V1 =P2V2
<span>P2 = P1V1/V2</span>

<span>The correct answer is the first option. Pressure would increase. This can be seen from the equation above where V2 is indirectly proportional to P2.</span>
