Answer:
I believe it is B
Explanation:
I am on this lesson too :)
The solution for this problem is:
C6H5NH3Cl is a strong salt: C6H5NH3+ + Cl- C6H5NH3+ + H2O <-----> C6H5NH2 + H3O+
K = Kw/ Kb= 1.0 x 10^-14 / 3.8 x 10^-10= 2.6 x 10^-5
=2.6 x 10^-5 = x^2 / 0.240-x
x = [H3O+] = 0.00251 M
pH = 2.60 is the concentration
Let us assume that there is a 100g sample present. The respective mass of each element will then be:
C: 74 g
H: 7.4 g
N: 8.6 g
O: 10 g
Now, we divide each constituent's mass by its Mr to obtain the moles of each
C: (74 / 12) = 6.17
H: (7.4 / 1) = 7.4
N: (8.6 / 14) = 0.61
O: (10 / 16) = 0.625
Dividing by the smallest number:
C: 10
H: 12
N: 1
O: 1
Thus, the empirical formula is
C10H12NO
Both atoms must be non-metals,
Both atoms must have an incomplete outer energy level / shell of electrons
