Complete combustion of 7.50 g of a hydrocarbon produced 23.1 g of CO2 and 10.6 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
r-ruslan [8.4K]
A CH compound is combusted to produce CO2 and H2O 
CnHm + O2 -----> CO2 + H2O 
Mass of CO2 = 23.1g
 Mass of H2O = 10.6g
 Calculate by mass of the compounds
 For Carbon C, divide by molecular weight of CO2 and multiply with Carbon
molecular weight. So C in grams = 23.1 x (12.01 / 44.01) = 6.3 g C
 For Hydrogen H, divide by molecular weight of H2O and multiply with Hydrogen molecular weight. So H in grams = 10.6 x (2.01 / 18.01) = 0.53 g C
= 1.18 of H
 Calculate the moles for C and H
 6.3 grams of C x (1 mole/12.01 g C) = 0.524 moles of C
 1.18 grams of H x (1 mole/1.008 g H) = 1.17 moles of H
 Divides by both mole entities with smallest
 C = 0.524 / 0.524 = 1 x 4 = 4
 H = 1.17 / 0.524 = 2.23 x 4 = 10
 The empirical formula is C4H10.

Describe a Mesosaurus. ​
ElenaW [278]

Mesosaurus lived in freshwater lakes and ponds. Elongated and slim, it measured about 3.3 feet long. The skull and tail were both long and narrow, and the animal probably undulated through the water as it fed on small crustaceans and other prey with its jaws, which were full of long, thin, pointed teeth.
