Answer:

Let me give it a try.

H3PO4 + Ca(OH)2 = Ca3(PO4)2 + H2O

Balancing this reaction

2H3PO4 + 3Ca(OH)2 == Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O.

Moles= Molarity x Volume

Volume = 38.5ml = 0.0385L

Moles of Ca hydroxide = 0.150m/L x 0.0385L

(Notice the units canceling out...leaving moles).

=0.005775moles of Ca(OH)2.

From balanced reaction...

3moles of Ca(OH)2 completely reacts with 2moles of H3PO4

0.005775moles of Ca(OH)2 would completely react with....

= 0.005775 x 2/(3)

=0.00385moles of H3PO4.

Now we're looking for its Concentration in Mol/L

Molarity=Moles of solute/Volume of solution(in L)

Volume of solution assuming no other additions to the reaction = 15ml + 38.5ml =53.5ml =0.0535L

Molarity = 0.00385/0.0535

=0.072Mol/L.

If this is wrong

then Simply Try The formula for Mixing of solutions

C1V1 = C2V2

0.15 x 38.5 = C2 x (15+38.5)

C2 = 0.11M/L.

A 6.175 gram sample of an organic compound containing only C, H, and O is analyzed by combustion analysis and 13.30 g CO2 and 5.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

Empirical and molecular formulas are the same, C₅H₁₀O₂.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, when determining the empirical and molecular formulas of organic compounds via combustion analysis, we first need to compute the moles of carbon and hydrogen via the yielded mass of carbon dioxide and water:

n_C=13.30gCO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44.01gCO_2}*\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2}=0.30molC\\\\n_H=5.447gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18.02gH_2O}*\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O}=0.60molH

Next, we need to compute the mass of oxygen by subtracting the mass of carbon and hydrogen to the mass of the sample of the compound:

m_O =6.175g-0.3molC*12.01gC/molC-0.6molH*1.01gH/molH =1.966gO

And consequently the moles:

n_O=0.12molO

Now, we need to divide the moles of each atom by the fewest moles, it in this case, those of oxygen to obtain the subscripts in the empirical formula:

C=\frac{0.30}{0.12} =2.5\\\\H=\frac{0.60}{0.12} =5\\\\O=\frac{0.12}{0.12} =1

Thus, the empirical formula, taken the nearest whole number is:

C_5H_{10}O_2

Now, if we divide the molar mass of the molecular formula (102.1 g/mol) by that of the empirical formula (102.1 g/mol) we infer they are both the same.

Best regards!

How are physical and<br>chemical changes different?​
astra-53 [7]
Physical changes happen when you do/mix something that can be reversed. Best example is ripping a paper, you can just tape it back together so it is just an observable thing that changes, which is a physical change. Chemical changes happen when you mix things and they make a new substance and can’t be reversed. The best example of this is the Statue of Liberty, which changed in color due to the chemical change between the oxygen and copper, which created a new substance (rust) which made it green instead of copper.
Sorry for the long answer but hope this helps!
