Answer:
Empirical CHO
molecular C4H4O4
Explanation:
From the question, we know that it contains 41.39% C , 3.47% H and the rest oxygen. To get the % composition of the oxygen, we simply add the carbon and hydrogen together and subtract from 100%.
This means : O = 100 - 41.39 - 3.47 = 55.14%
Next is to divide the percentage compositions by their atomic masses.
C = 41.39/12 = 3.45
O = 55.14/16 = 3.45
H = 3.47/1 = 3.47
Now we divide by the smallest value which is 3.45. We can deduce that this will definitely give us an answer of 1 all through as the values are very similar.
Hence the empirical formula of Maleic acid is CHO
Now we go on to deduce the molecular formula.
To do this we need the molar mass. I.e the amount in grammes per one mole of the compound.
Now we can see that 0.378mole = 43.8g
Then 1 mole = xg
x = (43.8*1)/0.378 = 115.87 = apprx 116
[CHO]n = 116
(12 + 1 + 16]n = 116
29n = 116
n = 116/29 = 4
The molecular formula is thus C4H4O4
Answer:
The enthalpy of the solution is -35.9 kJ/mol
Explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u> Data given
Mass of lithiumchloride = 3.00 grams
Volume of water = 100 mL
Change in temperature = 6.09 °C
<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate mass of water
Mass of water = 1g/mL * 100 mL = 100 grams
<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate heat
q = m*c*ΔT
with m = the mass of water = 100 grams
with c = the heat capacity = 4.184 J/g°C
with ΔT = the chgange in temperature = 6.09 °C
q = 100 grams * 4.184 J/g°C * 6.09 °C
q =2548.1 J
<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate moles lithiumchloride
Moles LiCl = mass LiCl / Molar mass LiCl
Moles LiCl = 3 grams / 42.394 g/mol
Moles LiCl = 0.071 moles
<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate enthalpy of solution
ΔH = 2548.1 J /0.071 moles
ΔH = 35888.7 J/mol = 35.9 kJ/mol (negative because it's exothermic)
The enthalpy of the solution is -35.9 kJ/mol
Is this all you need or more ?
Boiling point is the temperature at which the substance boils. Boiling point for water is 212F
