Chemistry
1 answer:
IgorLugansk [536]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Molecular formula of the compound is C_{2}H_{2}O=C_{10}H_{10}O_{5}

Explanation:

Empirical formula of the given compound - C_{2}H_{2}O

Empirical formula mass = (2\times 12g/mol)+(2\times 1g/mol)+(16 g/mol)=42g/mol

\frac{Molecular\,formula\,mass}{Empirical\,formula\,mass}=\frac{216g/mol}{42g/mol}

\frac{Molecular\,formula\,mass}{Empirical\,formula\,mass}=\frac{216g/mol}{42g/mol}= 5.15=5

{Molecular\,formula}= 5\times {Empirical\,formula}

= 5\times C_{2}H_{2}O=C_{10}H_{10}O_{5}

Therefore, molecular formula of the compound is C_{2}H_{2}O=C_{10}H_{10}O_{5}

How many moles of H2O form when 4.5 moles O2 reacts?
mart [117]

Explanation:

Start with a balanced equation.

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

Assuming that H2 is in excess, multiply the given moles H2O by the mole ratio between O2 and H2O in the balanced equation so that moles H2O cancel.

5 mol H2O × (1 mol O2/2 mol H2O) = 2.5 mol O2

Answer: 2.5 mol O2 are needed to make 5 mol H2O, assuming H2 is in excess.

During a spectrophotometric analysis of an unknown, you measure your solution's absorbance, and the value is higher than the hig
Reil [10]

Answer:

A) Dilute the unknown so that it will have an absorbance within the standard curve. Once the diluted unknown concentration is determined, the full strength concentration can be calculated if the dilution process is recorded. Beer's law only applies to dilute solutions, so diluting the unknown is better than making new standards.

Explanation:

Beer's law states that <em>absorbance is proportional to the concentrations of the absorbing species</em>. This is verified in the case of diluted solutions (0≤0.01 M) of most substances. <u>As a solution gets more concentrated, solute molecules interact between themselves because of their proximity. </u>When a molecule interacts with another, the change in their electric properties (including absorbance) is probable. That's why <u>the plot of absorbance versus concentration stops being a straight line</u>, and <u>Beer's law is no longer valid.</u>

Therefore, if the absorbance value is higher than the highest standard,  dilutions should be made. Once this concentration is determined, the full strength concentration can be calculated with the inverse of the dilution.

Why do some atoms form positive ions and others form negative ions?
Scrat [10]
It is energetically favorable for all atoms to have a complete outer electron shell. Loosely, the atoms on the left hand side of the periodic table only have a few extra electrons in their outer shell so it is energetically favorable for them to lose them. The atoms on the right hand side of the periodic table almost have enough electrons in their outer shell and so they have a tendency to gain them. Once electrons have left an electron shell, an atom will have a positive charge because it has more protons (positive charges) than electrons (negative charges). Similarly, an electron which has gained electrons to complete its outer shell will have a negative charge because it now has more electrons (negative charge) than protons (positive charge).

Solid silver chloride, AgCI(s), decomposes to its elements when exposed to sunlight Write a balanced equation for this reaction
Mrac [35]

Answer: The coefficient in front of AgCl when the equation is properly balanced is 2.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which one reactant gives two or more than two products.

Decomposition of silver chloride is represented as:

2AgCl(s)\rightarrow 2Ag(s)+Cl_2(g)

Thus the coefficient in front of AgCl when the equation is properly balanced is 2.
