C₂H₂ has  the greatest percent by mass of carbon (92.3%)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Hydrocarbons

Required

The greatest percent by mass of Carbon

Solution

Proust states <em>the Comparative Law</em> that compounds are formed from elements with the same Mass Comparison so that compounds have a constant composition of elements

% A in AxBy = (x.Ar A/MW AxBy) x 100%

C₃H₄ = 3.12/40 x 100%=90%

CH₄ = 12/16 x 100% = 75%

C₂H₄=2.12/28 x 100% = 85.7%

C₂H₂=2.12/26 x 100% = 92.3%

If a 28.0 L balloon with a temperature of
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

5.6 L

Explanation:

We can apply Charles' Law here since our pressure is constant (will not change inside the refrigerator) and we are relating change in volume with change in temperature:

V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂ where V₁ and T₁ are initial volume and temperature, and V₂ and T₂ are final volume and temperature. Let's plug in what we know and solve for the unknown:

28.0 L / 25 °C = V₂ / 5 °C => V₂ = 5.6 L

5.6 L is our new volume (at 5 °C).

Compute the freezing point of this solution:
likoan [24]

Answer:

Freezing point = 1.25

Explanation:

If  we increase the concentration of the solution, the concentration of H+ does not change.

Convert 2.5% in to decimal

2.5%  = 2.5 ÷100

        = 0.025

The freezing point = 0.025 × 50

                               = 1.25
