Answer:
Empirical formula: BH3
Molecular Formula: B2H6
Explanation:
To solve the exercise, we need to know how many boron atoms and how many hydrogen atoms the compound has. We know that of the total weight of the compound, 78.14% correspond to boron and 21.86% to hydrogen. As the weight of the compound is between 27 g and 28 g, using the above percentages we can solve that the compound has between 21.1 g and 21.8 g of boron, and between 5.9 g and 6.1 g of hydrogen:
100% _____ 27 g
78.14% _____ x = 78.14% * 27g / 100% = 21.1 g boron
100% ______27 g
21.86% ______ x = 21.86% * 27g / 100% = 5.9 g hydrogen
100% _____ 28 g
78.14% _____ x = 78.14% * 28g / 100% = 21.8 g boron
100% _____ 28g
21.86% _____ x = 21.86% * 28g / 100% = 6.1 g hydrogen
So, if the atomic weight of boron is 10.8 g, there must be two boron atoms in the compound that sum 21.6 g. The weight of hydrogen is 1 g, so the compound must have six hydrogen atoms.
The molecular formula represents the real amount of atoms that form a compound. Therefore, the molecular formula of the compound is B2H6.
The empirical formula is the minimum expression that represents the proportion of atoms in a compound. For example, ethane has 2 carbon atoms and 6 hydrogen atoms, so its molecular formula is C2H6, however, its empirical formula is CH3. Therefore, the empirical formula of the boron compound is BH3.
Answer:
1.28 mol
Explanation:
mole = mass/molar mass
n = v/v/cm³
mass = 0. 075g
v = 1dm³ =1000cm³
n= m/MV=0.075/58.44(1000)
n =1.28 mol
Answer:
The answer to your question is: 6.55 x 10 ²³ atoms of Br
Explanation:
CH2Br2 = 37.9 g
MW CH2Br2 = (12 x 1) + (2 x 1) + (80 x 2) = 174 g
174 g of CH2Br2 ------------------ 160 g of Br2
37.9 g of CH2Br2 --------------- x
x = 37.9 x 160/174 = 34.85 g of Br
1 mol of Br ----------------- 160 g Br2
x ---------------- 174 g Be2
x = 174 x 1 /160 = 1.088 mol of Br2
1 mol of Br ----------------- 6.023 x 10 ²³ atoms
1.088 mol of Br ------------- x
x = 1.088 x 6.023 x 10 ²³ / 1 = 6.55 x 10 ²³ atoms
Answer:
Ionic bond
Explanation:
Covalent bonds can only form between non-metals and copper is a metal so it would be an ionic bond.
