The analysis of a hydrocarbon revealed that it was 85.7% C and 14.3% H by mass. When 1.77 g of the gas was stored in a 1.500-L f
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The formula of hydrocarbon = C_3H_6

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

% of C = 85.7

Molar mass of C = 12.0107 g/mol

% moles of C = 85.7 / 12.0107 = 7.14

% of H = 14.3

Molar mass of H = 1.00784 g/mol

% moles of H = 14.3 / 1.00784 = 14.19

Taking the simplest ratio for C and H as:

7.14 : 14.19 = 1 : 2

The empirical formula is = CH_2

Also, Given that:

Pressure = 508 Torr

Temperature = 17 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (17 + 273.15) K = 290.15 K  

Volume = 1.500 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 62.3637 L.torr/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

508 Torr × 1.500 L = n × 62.3637 L.torr/K.mol × 290.15 K  

⇒n = 0.0421 moles

Given that :  

Amount  = 1.77 g

Molar mass = ?

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

0.0421\ moles= \frac{1.77\ g}{Molar\ mass}

Molar mass of the hydrocarbon = 42.04 g/mol

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 1×12 + 2×1= 14 g/mol

Molar mass = 42.04 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

42.04 = n × 14

⇒ n = 3

Name a possible product of this reaction in the presence of ether and AlCl3: methylbenzene + 1-chlorodecane.a. 1-methyl-2-decylb
Vikki [24]

Answer:

None of these

Explanation:

Friedel–Craft reaction is a reaction involves the attachment of substituents to the benzene ring.

Mechanism of the reaction of methylbenzene with 1-chlorodecane in the presence of ether and aluminum chloride :

Step -1 : Generation of stable carbocation.

Aluminium chloride acts as Lewis acid which removes the chloride ion from the alkyl halide forming carbocation. The primary carbocation thus formed gets rearranged to secondary primary carbocation which is more stable due to hyperconjugation.

Step-2: Attack of the ring to the carbocation

The pi electrons of the ring behave as a nucleophile and attacks the carbocation. Since, the group attached on the benzene is methyl (+R effect) , the attack is from the ortho and the para positions. Para product is more stable due to less steric hinderance.

The product formed is shown in mechanism does not mention in any of the options.

So, None of these is the answer

What change must made to the coefficients to balance this equation?
tresset_1 [31]

<u>Switch the 3 and the 4</u>, this change must made to the coefficients to balance this equation.

Now, the correct balance equation is C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4H₂O

This method of balancing chemical equations involves assigning algebraic variables as stoichiometric coefficients to each species in the unbalanced chemical equation.

How and why ions form. Give examples of both metals and no metals
yawa3891 [41]
Ion, any atom or group of atoms that bears one or more positive or negative electrical charges. Positively charged ions are called cations; negatively charged ions, anions. Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in association with one of the formerly bonded atoms. Examples of these processes include the reaction of a sodium atom with a chlorine atom to form a sodium cation and a chloride anion; the addition of a hydrogen cation to an ammonia molecule to form an ammonium cation; and the dissociation of a water molecule to form a hydrogen cation and a hydroxide anion.
