3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

C = 41.4/12 = 3.43

H = 3.47/1 = 3.47

O = 55.1/16 =3.44

CHO is the skeletal formula (divide each by the lowest number above). The results are close enough to 1 to be 1.

(CHO)_x = 116

C + H + O = 29

(29) _ x = 116

x = 116/29

x = 4

So there area 4 carbons 4 hydrogens and 4 oxygens.

The correct formula is C4H4O4

How many calories of heat were added to 347.9 g of water to raise its temperature from 25oC to 55oC?
saw5 [17]

Answer:

10437calories

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question given:

M = 347.9g

C = 4.2J/g°C

T1 = 25°C

T2 = 55°C

ΔT = 55 — 25 = 30°C

Q =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 347.9 x 4.2 x 30

Q = 43835.4J

Converting this to calories, we obtained the following:

4.2J = 1 calorie

43835.4J = 43835.4/ 4.2 = 10437calories

Sodium hydroxide is a common ingredient in drain cleaners such as Drano. The mole fraction of sodium hydroxide in a saturated aq
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer to this question is (c) 25.0 m

Explanation:

To solve this we list out the variables thus

mole fraction of sodium hydroxide = 0.310

Mole fraction = number of moles of a component ÷ total number of moles in the solution

Mole fraction = 0.310

In a saturaturated aqueous solution we have NaOH and water

∴ Number of moles of water molecules per unit = 1 - 0.310 = 0.690

However 0.690 moles of H₂O  weighs = 0.690 mole × 18.01528 g/mol =12.43 g = 0.01243 kg of H₂O

But the molality = number of moles per Kilogram of H₂O

therefore molality of NaOH in the sample of solution =

(0.310 mol of NaOH )÷(0.01243 kg of H₂O)

= 24.93 mol/kg or ≅ 25.0 m
