A compound is analyzed and determined to be 30.4% nitrogen and 69.6%

Chemistry

Answer:

NO2

Explanation:

The empirical formula represents the simplest whole number ratio of the elements in a compound. According to the question;

30.4% represents 30.4g of nitrogen

69.6% represents 69.6g of oxygen

First, we convert each mass value to mole by dividing by their respective molar masses as follows:

N = 30.4/14 = 2.17mol

O = 69.6/16 = 4.35mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (2.17)

N = 2.17/2.17 = 1

O = 4.35/2.17 = 2.0046

Approximately, the ratio of N to O is 1:2, hence, the empirical formula is NO2

Based on the molecular formula, determine whether each compound is an alkane, alkene, or alkyne. (Assume that the hydrocarbons a
topjm [15]

Answer:

a. alkyne

b. alkane

c. alkyne

d. alkene

Explanation:

The general formula for each class of compound is given below

Alkane: C_nH_{2n+2}

Alkene: C_nH_{2n}

Alkyne: C_nH_{2n-2} (assuming single multiple bonds)

Now let us classify according to the above formulas:

a. It has two hydrogen atoms less than the two times of carbon atoms hence, it's alkyne

b. It has two hydrogen atoms more than the two times of carbon atoms hence, it's alkane

c. It has two hydrogen atoms less than the two times of carbon atoms hence, it's alkyne

d. It has hydrogen atoms two times of carbon atoms hence, it's alkene

How many oxygen atoms are contained in 2.74 g of Al2(SO4)3?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

5.79 × 10^23 Oxygen atoms

Explanation:

Number of Oxygen atom in the compound = 4×3 = 12

Molar mass of Al2(SO4)3 = 342 g/mol.

No of mole = mass/molar mass = 2.74/342 = 8.01×10^-03 mole

2.74g of Al2(SO4)3 × 1 mole of Al2 (SO4)3 / 342g of Al2 (SO4)3 * 12 mole of Oxygen/ 1mole of Al(SO4)3 * 6.02×10^23 Oxygen atom/ 1 mole of Oxygen

= 5.79×10^23 Oxygen atoms
