Answer:
3.11%
Explanation:
We express a solution's volume by volume percent concentration, % v/v,
Take the ratio of the isopropyl alcohol (IPA) volume to the total volume of the solution, which is 1400 mL of water+ 45 mL of IPA,
and multiply by 100 to get the percentage: 45/(1400+45) *100 = 0.0311*100 = 3.11%
1 mole of carbon dioxide contains a mass of 44 g, out of which 12 g are carbon.
Hence, in this case the mass of carbon in 8.46 g of CO2:
(12/44) × 8.46 = 2.3073 g
1 mole of water contains 18 g, out of which 2 g is hydrogen;
Therefore, 2.6 g of water contains;
(2/18) × 2.6 = 0.2889 g of hydrogen.
Therefore, with the amount of carbon and hydrogen from the hydrocarbon we can calculate the empirical formula.
We first calculate the number of moles of each,
Carbon = 2.3073/12 = 0.1923 moles
Hydrogen = 0.2889/1 = 0.2889 moles
Then, we calculate the ratio of Carbon to hydrogen by dividing with the smallest number value;
Carbon : Hydrogen
0.1923/0.1923 : 0.2889/0.1923
1 : 1.5
(1 : 1.5) 2
= 2 : 3
Hence, the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon is C2H3
Answer:
The correct answer is : No, because there are 4 hydrogen atoms on the reactants side and 2 on the products side.
Explanation:
The given reaction equation is not balanced because:
- Number of hydrogen atoms on both sides are not equal that is 4 on reactants side and 2 on products side.
- Number of oxygen atoms on both sides are not equal that is 3 on reactants side and 2 on products side.
In a balanced chemical equation number of atoms of each elements are equal on both sides.
So, the balanced chemical equation will be:
