A sample of a compound contains 60.0 g C and 5.05 g H. Its molar mass is 78.12 g/mol. What is the compound’s molecular formula?
Inessa [10]

A sample of a compound contains 60.0 g C and 5.05 g H.

divide by molar mass of C(12) and H(1) to get molar ratio

C: 60/12=5 and H: 5/1=5

so C:H=5:5=1:1

total molar mass=78

divide by 1C+1H to find the formula: 78/(12+1)=78/13=6

compound is C6H6

An elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction in which an elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction
tresset_1 [31]
So I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking but I’m going to give it a go. The elimination reaction is a term used in organic chemistry that describes a type of reactions. The name kinda tells you what’s going to happen. Something is going to be removed/eliminated from initial reactant/substrate and as a result, an alkene (double bond containing compound) will form.

In elimination reactions a hydrogen atom is first removed (as a H+) from the beta carbon. As a result, the left behind electrons create a pi bond between the beta carbon and the neighboring alpha carbon. This promotes the electronegative atom, on the alpha carbon, to leaves the substrate taking both electrons from the shared sigma bond with the alpha carbon.

A compound is 44.82% Potassium, 18.39% Sulfur, and 36.79% Oxygen. Write the empirical formula and name the compound.
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Empirical formula = K₂SO₄

The name of the compound is Potassium tetraoxosulfate (vi)

Explanation:

Percentage composition of the elements:

Potassium = 44.82%

Sulfur = 18.39%

Oxygen = 36.79%

Mole ratio of the elements:

Potassium = 44.82/39 =1.15

Sulfur = 18.39/32 = 0.57

Oxygen = 36.79/16 = 2.29

Dividing by the smallest ratio in order to obtain the simplest ratio

Potassium = 1.15/0.57 =2

Sulfur = 0.57/0.57 = 1

Oxygen = 2.29/0.57 = 4

Therefore, the mole ratio of Potassium : Sulfur : Oxygen = 2:1:4

Empirical formula = K₂SO₄

The name of the compound is Potassium tetraoxosulfate (vi)

n unknown metal is either aluminum, iron or lead. If 150. g of this metal at 150.0 °C was placed in a calorimeter that contains
Nitella [24]

Answer : The metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is 0.449J/g^oC).

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of unknown metal = ?

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.184J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of unknown metal = 150 g

m_2 = mass of water = 200 g

T_f = final temperature of water = 34.3^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of unknown metal = 150.0^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 25.0^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

150g\times c_1\times (34.3-150.0)^oC=-200g\times 4.184J/g^oC\times (34.3-25.0)^oC

c_1=0.449J/g^oC

Form the value of specific heat of unknown metal, we conclude that the metal used in this was iron (Fe).

Therefore, the metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is 0.449J/g^oC).
