Answer:

Cells make up the smallest level of a living organism such as yourself and other living things. The cellular level of an organism is where the metabolic processes occur that keep the organism alive. That is why the cell is called the fundamental unit of life.

An unidentified compound contains only phosphorous and fluorine, meaning we could write its formula as PxFy. Heating 0.2324 g of
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The molecular formula of the compound is P2F4

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the compound  = 0.2324 grams

Volume of container = 378 mL

Pressure at 77 °C = 97.3 torr

The gaseous PxFy was then reacted with an aqueous solution of calcium chloride, and all of the fluorine was converted to 0.2631 g of CaF2.

Molar mass CaF2 = 78.07 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles CaF2

Moles CaF2 = 0.2631 g/ 78.07 g/mol=0.003370

Step 3: Calculate moles F

For every 1 mol CaF2 we have 1 mol Ca2+ and 2 moles F-

moles F- = 2 * 0.003370=0.006740

Step 4: Calculate mass of F

mass F =  0.006740 mol * 19.00 g/mol=0.1281 g

Step 5: Calculate mass of P

mass P = mass of compound - mass of F = 0.2324 - 0.1281 =0.1043 g

Step 6: Calculate moles P

moles P = 0.1043 g/ 30.97 g/mol=0.003368 moles

Step 7: Calculate mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

P: 0.003368/0.003368 =1

F: 0.006740/ 0.003368 =2

The empirical formula is PF2

The empirical formula has a molar mass of 68.97 g/mol

Step 8: Calculate moles of compound

p*V = n*R*T

n = (p*V)/(R*T)

⇒ with p = the pressure of the gas = 97.3 torr = 97.3/760 = 0.128 atm

⇒ with V = the volume of the gas = 0.378 L

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ with T = the temperature = 77.0 °C = 350 Kelvin

Number of moles =(0.128 *0.378)/(0.08206*350)

Number of moles =

moles gas = pV/RT = 0.128 atm x 0.378 dm^3/ 0.08206x350 K=0.00168  

Step 9: Calculate molar mass

Molar mass = mass / moles

Molar mass = 0.2324 grams / 0.00168 moles

Molar mass = 138 g/mol

Step 10: Calculate the molecular formula

138.0 / 68.97 = 2

2*(PF2) = P2F4

The molecular formula of the compound is P2F4
