Answer:

C4H7

Explanation:

Empirical formula is defined as the simplest ratios of atoms present in the compound.

The empirical formula for C8H14 is C4H7 as if you multiply each coefficient of C4H7 by 2, it will become C8H14. The chemical name of C8H14 or C4H7 is 1-Methylcycloheptene.

Hence, the correct answer is "C4H7".

Answer:

1. Letter  A shows the overall enthalpy of reaction

2. which is equal to kJ 2,538.90kJ

3. Letter  B shows the activation energy for the reaction

4. The activated complex is represented by letter C

Explanation:

1. Letter __ shows the overall enthalpy of reaction

The overall enthalpy of reaction is equal to the change of enthalpy of the substances:

Enthalpy of reaction = ∑ enthalpy of the products - ∑enthalply of the reactants.

The products are shown of the right side of the diagram. They are C₆H₁₂O₆(g) and 6O₂(g).

The reactants are shown of the left side of the diagram. They are 6CO₂(g) and 6H₂O(g).

The arrow labeled A shows the difference between the enthalpies of the products and the reactants; thus this shows the overall enthalpy of reaction.

2. which is equal to kJ__

You must subtract the enthalpy of the iniital state (reactants) from the enthalpy of the final state (products).

Overall enthalpy of reaction = - 1,273.02kJ - ( - 3,811.92kJ)

Overall enthalpy of reaction = 2,538.90kJ

This is a positive change indicating the reaction is endothermic.

3. Letter___shows the activation energy for the reaction

The activation energy is the energy that the reactants must gain for the reaction occurs.

Thus, it is the difference between the maximum energy, indicated by the label C on the graph, and initial state.

That is shown by the arrow labeled B: the reactants must gain the amount of energy indicated by the arrow labeled B to reach the energy of the state labeled C.

4. The activated complex is represented by ____

The activated complex is the intermediate compound formed while the reactants are breaking their bonds and new bonds start to form the products. It is also called transition state.

The activated complex is on the top of the energy diagram because it hat the highest energy. The formation of the activated complex always requires energy (it is an endothermic process). Once it is formed, energy is released and the reactants are formed (this part is exothermic).

Thus, the activated complex is labeled with the letter C.

Water waves are surface waves. The energy of the waves moves

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Waves are actually energy passing through the water, causing it to move in a circular motion. ... This phenomenon is a result of the wave's orbital motion being disturbed by the seafloor.

The direction a wave propagates is perpendicular to the direction it oscillates for transverse waves. A wave does not move mass in the direction of propagation; it transfers energy.

If the equilibrium concentration of CO is 3.4 × 10–1 M, and the equilibrium concentration

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

4.1M = [CH₃OH]

Explanation:

The equilibrium produced for the reaction between CO and H₂ to form CH₃OH is:

CO + 2 H₂ ⇄ CH₃OH

Where Keq is defined as:

Keq = 26 = [CH₃OH] / [CO] [H₂]²

For concentrations in equilibrium

Replacing in Keq the equilibrium concentrations of CO and H₂, the equilibrium concentration of CH₃COOH is:

26 = [CH₃OH] / [3.4x10⁻¹M] [6.8x10⁻¹M]²

4.1M = [CH₃OH]

You react 2.43 grams of magnesium with oxygen from the air according to the following reaction. The final mass of the product, m

Leona [35]

Answer:

The mass of oxygen that reacted is approximately 1.6 grams of oxygen

Explanation:

The given information are;

The mass of magnesium in the reaction = 2.43 grams

The final mass of the magnesium oxide = 4.12 grams

The chemical equation for the reaction is given as follows;

2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO

From which we see that two moles of magnesium, Mg, reacts with one mole of oxygen gas molecule, O₂, to produce two moles of magnesium oxide, MgO

The number of moles of magnesium present, $n_{Mg}$ , is given as follows;

$n_{Mg} = \dfrac{Mass \ of \, magnesium}{Molar \ mass \ of \, magnesium} = \dfrac{2.43}{24.305} \approx 0.1 \ moles$

By the given chemical equation, 2 moles of magnesium reacts with one mole of O₂, therefore;

1 mole of magnesium will react with 1/2 moles of oxygen which is 0.5 moles of oxygen also;

0.1 mole of magnesium will react with 0.05 moles of oxygen

The mass of one mole of oxygen = The molar mass of oxygen = 32 g/mol

The mass of oxygen in the reaction = The number of moles of oxygen × The molar mass of oxygen

The mass of oxygen in the reaction = 0.05 × 32 = 1.6 grams

Also from the molar mass of MgO which is 40.3044 g/mol, we have;

The mass fraction of oxygen = 16/40.3044 = 0.39698 ≈ 0.4

The mass of oxygen = 0.39698 × 4.12 = 1.636 g

Therefore, the mass of oxygen in the reaction is approximately 1.6 grams.
