Carvone is a substance that occurs in two forms having different arrangements of the atoms but the same molecular formula (c10h1

4o) and mass. one type of carvone gives caraway seeds their characteristic smell, and the other type is responsible for the smell of spearmint oil. calculate the mass percent of each element in carvone.

The molecular mass of Carvone is calculated as;

                          =  12 (C)₁₀  +  1.008 (H)₁₄  +  16 (O)

                          =  120  +  14.112  +  16

                          =  150.112

%age of Carbon;

                          =  (120 ÷ 150.112) × 100

                          =  79.94 %

%age of Hydrogen;

                          =  (14.112 ÷ 150.112) × 100

                          =  9.40 %

%age of Oxygen;

                          =  (16 ÷ 150.112) × 100

                          =  10.65 %

Explain why it is necessary to balance chemical equations in terms of maintaining equilibrium. How can you tell when a chemical
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we say that chemical reactions are governed by the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be neither created nor destroyed by transformed, for that reason, we need to balance chemical reactions in order to ensure all the atoms to be in the same quantity at both reactants and products.

Moreover, equilibrium is defined as such condition at which the concentration of both reactants and products stop changing over the time so they become constant as well as their null reaction rate.

A widely acknowledged reaction is the HABER one which consists on the synthesis of ammonia by using elemental nitrogen and hydrogen:

N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g)

In such reaction, we have two nitrogens at both reatants and products and six hydrogens at at both reatants and products for us to obey the law of conservation of mass. Furthermore, as the time goes by, nitrogen reacts with hydrogen, nonetheless, they do not react indefinitely, they have a limit that is equilibrium, so their moles stop being consumed and remain unchanged as well as the produced moles of ammonia.

Best regards.

Determine the empirical formula of a
k0ka [10]

Answer:

AuCl

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Gold  = 2.6444g

Mass of Chlorine  = 0.476g

Unknown:

Empirical formula  = ?

Solution:

Empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound. Here is the way of determining this formula.

Elements                                     Au                                             Cl

Mass                                         2.6444                                     0.476

Molar mass                                 197                                          35.5

Number of moles                  2.6444/197                                 0.476/35.5

                                                 0.013                                           0.013

Divide by the

smallest                                 0.013/0.013                                 0.013/0.013

                                                       1                                                   1

The empirical formula of the compound is AuCl
