Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound
calculating for 100 g of compound
C H O
mass 64.27 g 7.19 g 28.54 g
number of moles 64.27 g / 12 g/mol 7.19 g/1 g/mol 28.54 g / 16 g/mol
= 5.356 mol = 7.19 mol = 1.784 mol
divide by least number of moles
5.356 / 1.784 7.19 / 1.784 1.784 / 1.784
= 3.002 4.03 = 1.000
rounded off to nearest whole number
C - 3
H - 4
O - 1
empirical formula - C₃H₄O
mass of empirical formula = 12 g/mol x 3 + 1 g/mol x 4 + 16 g/mol x 1 = 56 g
molecular mass = 168.19 g/mol
molecular formula is the actual ratio of elements making up the compound
number of empirical units = molar mass of molecule / empirical mass
empirical units = 168.19 g/mol / 56 g = 3.00
there are 3 empirical units making up the molecular formula
molecular formula = 3 x C₃H₄O
molecular formula = C₉H₁₂O₃
Answer:
Mass of carbon dioxide = 7.48 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of lithium carbonate = 12.5 g
Mass of carbon dioxide produced = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
Li₂CO₃ → Li₂O + CO₂
Number of moles of Li₂CO₃:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 12.5 g /73.89 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.17 mol
Now we will compare the moles of Li₂CO₃ with CO₂.
Li₂CO₃ : CO₂
1 : 1
0.17 : 0.17
Mass of carbon dioxide:
Mass of carbon dioxide = number of moles × molar mass
Mass of carbon dioxide = 0.17 mol × 44 g/mol
Mass of carbon dioxide = 7.48 g
Answer:
A, C and D
Explanation:
Lewis acid are compounds that accept a pair of non-bonding electron while Lewis base are compound that donate non-bonding electron pairs. Lewis acid in the options are NaHCO₃ because it has both acidic and basic properties ( ampholyte), (CH3CH2)2HC+ is deficient of electron and BBr3 because boron has an incomplete octet configuration and deficient of two electron
Timbuktu was considered a MASSIVE trade center in Mali. That is how all of the foreign goods came into the kingdom. It also had education centers which was very important in Mali.
