How many moles of gas are present in 1.13 L of gas at 2.09 atm and 291 K?

raketka [301]

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

n = 0.0989 moles

<h2><u>Explanation:</u></h2>

n = PV / RT

P = 2.09atm

V = 1.13L

R = 0.08206

T = 291K

Plug the numbers in the equation.

n = (2.09atm)(1.13L) / (0.08206)(291K)

n = 0.0989 moles

Determine the empirical formula of a compound containing 48.38 grams of carbon, 6.74 grams of hydrogen, and 53.5 grams of oxygen

Darya [45]

Answer: The empirical formula of the compound becomes $CH_2O$

<u>Explanation:</u>

The empirical formula is the chemical formula of the simplest ratio of the number of atoms of each element present in a compound.

We are given:

Mass of C = 48.38 g

Mass of H = 6.74 g

Mass of O = 53.5 g

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass. The equation used is:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ ......(1)

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

<u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Molar mass of C = 12 g/mol

Molar mass of H = 1 g/mol

Molar mass of O = 16 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of C}=\frac{48.38g}{12g/mol}=3.023 mol$

$\text{Moles of H}=\frac{6.74g}{1g/mol}=6.74 mol$

$\text{Moles of O}=\frac{53.5g}{1g/mol}=3.34 mol$

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

Calculating the mole fraction of each element by dividing the calculated moles by the least calculated number of moles that is 3.023 moles

$\text{Mole fraction of C}=\frac{3.023}{3.023}=1$

$\text{Mole fraction of H}=\frac{6.74}{3.023}=2.23\approx 2$

$\text{Mole fraction of O}=\frac{3.34}{3.023}=1.105\approx 1$

<u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 1 : 2 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula of the compound becomes $CH_2O$

Why do apple, potato, and onion all taste the same if you eat them with your nose plugged

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

When bit into without the onion's outermost skin, apples and onions share an extremely similar crunch. ... The flavors of the apple neutralize the onions pungency. So there you have it, if you plug your nose, close your eyes and bite into an onion...it is indistinguishable from an apple... until your nostrils open again.
