Answer:

The real volume of the gas particles is extremely small when compared to the entire volume of their container.

d)Gas particles constantly expand and contract, which constantly alters their volume. When these volumes are averaged, a value of zero is obtained

TIMED PLS HELP AND WILL GIVE BRAINLIST

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

19.4 g of alum, will be its theoretical yield

Explanation:

The reaction is:

2 Al + 2 KOH + 4 H₂SO₄ + 22H₂O → 3H₂ + 2KAl(SO₄)₂•12H₂O

Let's determine the amount of acid.

M are the moles contained in 1 L of solution or it can be mmoles that are contained in 1 mL of solution

M = mmol /mL

M . mL = mmol

We replace: 8.3 mL . 9.9 M = 82.17 mmoles

We convert to moles: 82.17 mmol . 1 mol / 1000mmol = 0.082 moles

Ratio is 4:2

4 moles of sulfuric acid can make 2 moles of alum

By the way, 0.082 moles of acid may produce ( 0.082 . 2) /4 = 0.041085 moles.

We convert moles to mass:

Molar mass of alum is: 473.52 g/mol.

0.041085 moles . 473.52 g/mol = 19.4 g

When 0.42 g of a compound containing C, H, and O is burned completely, the products are 1.03 g CO2 and 0.14 g H2O. The molecular

Luda [366]

Answer: The empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is $C_2H_2O_4$ and $C_6H_4O_2$

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

$C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=1.03g$

Mass of $H_2O=0.14g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 1.03 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 1.03=0.28g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.14 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.14=0.016g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.42) - (0.28 + 0.016) = 0.124 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.28g}{12g/mole}=0.023moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.016g}{1g/mole}=0.016moles$

Moles of Oxygen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.124g}{16g/mole}=0.00775moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.00775 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.023}{0.00775}=2.96\approx 3$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.016}{0.00775}=2.06\approx 2$

For Oxygen = $\frac{0.00775}{0.00775}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 3 : 2 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is $C_3H_{2}O_1=C_3H_2O$

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

$n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 108.10 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 54 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{108.10g/mol}{54g/mol}=2$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(3\times 2)}H_{(2\times 2)}O_{(1\times 2)}=C_6H_4O_2$

Thus, the empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is $C_3H_2O$ and $C_6H_4O_2$

Continental crust is younger than oceanic crust.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The answer is true.

Explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

The answer is true.

When a crust undergoes great tension, a crack opens and the oceanic crust begins to form. As the crack enlarges, the continent is splitting. Thus an oceanic crust forms. So the oceanic crust is younger than the earth's crust.
