Determine the empirical formula for a compound that is found to contain

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sphinxa [80]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The empirical formula is PCl3

Explanation:

Mass of P is 30.97 g, thus 1.523 g of P equivalent to 0.05 moles of P

Mass of Cl is 35.45 g, thus 5.228 g of Cl equivalent to 0.15 moles of Cl

Therefore moles of P : moles of Cl = 0.05:0.15 = 1:3

Therefore the empirical formula, PCl3

In the following reaction, how many liters of oxygen will react with 270 liters of ethene (C2H4) at STP?
lawyer [7]
According to the equation you have 1 mole of C2H4 and 3 moles of O2.

1 • (22.4L / 270L) = 3 • (22.4L / x)

1/270L = 3/x

x = 3(270) / 1

x = 810 L

810 Liters of oxygen will react with 270 liters of ethene (C2H4) at STP

Determine the net iconic equation for the following chemical reaction: HCl(aq) + NH4OH(aq)———-> NH4Cl(aq) + H2O(I) Hint: HCl(
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer : The net ionic equation will be,

H^{+}(aq)+OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow H_2O(l)

Explanation :

In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Spectator ions : The ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. The same ions present on both the sides.

The given balanced ionic equation will be,

HCl(aq)+NH_4OH(aq)\rightarrow NH_4Cl(aq)+H_2O(l)

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

H^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)+NH_4^+(aq)+OH^-(aq)\rightarrow H_2O(l)+NH_4^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)

In this equation, NH_4^+\text{ and }Cl^- are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

H^{+}(aq)+OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow H_2O(l)

Is a forward or reverse reaction favored?
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

(a) CH_3COOH \rightleftharpoons CH_3COO^-+ H^+: reverse reaction is favored.

(b) AgCl \rightleftharpoons Ag^+ + Cl^-: reverse reaction is favored.

(c) Al(OH)_3 \rightleftharpoons Al^{3+} + 3OH^-: reverse reaction is favored.

(d) A+B\rightleftharpoons C: forward reaction is favored.

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) CH_3COOH \rightleftharpoons CH_3COO^-+ H^+:

In this case, since the Ka is lower than 1, we infer the reverse reaction is favored since the reactant (acetic acid) will tend to have a higher concentration.

(b) AgCl \rightleftharpoons Ag^+ + Cl^-:

In this case, since the Ka is lower than 1, we infer the reverse reaction is favored since the reactant (silver chloride) will tend to have a higher concentration.

(c) Al(OH)_3 \rightleftharpoons Al^{3+} + 3OH^-

In this case, since the Ka is lower than 1, we infer the reverse reaction is favored since the reactant (aluminium hydroxide) will tend to have a higher concentration.

(d) A+B\rightleftharpoons C

In this case, since the Ka is greater than 1, we infer the forward reaction is favored since the product (C) will tend to have a higher concentration.

Regards.
