Explanation:

49.31 + 43.79 = 93.10

finding the percentage of hydrogen in the compound hence 100-93.10 =6.9

therefore 6.9 percent of hydrogen is present in the compound

assuming that the compound is in 100 g so the elements present would be 49.31g of C , 43.79g of O and 6.9g of H

no. of moles of C = given mass÷molar mass

= 49.31 ÷ 12

=<em><u>4</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>1</u></em><em><u>1</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>m</u></em><em><u>o</u></em><em><u>l</u></em>

no of moles of O = givem mass ÷molar mass

=43.79÷ 16

=<em><u>2</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>7</u></em><em><u>3</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>m</u></em><em><u>o</u></em><em><u>l</u></em>

no. of moles of H =6.9÷1

=<em><u>6</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>9</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>m</u></em><em><u>o</u></em><em><u>l</u></em>

dividing the no. of moles of each element by the least count of the elemnt to get the ratio of the simple whole numbr

therefore

so by dividing we get 1:1:2 of C:O:H

the empirical formula is CH2O

empirical formula mass of CH2O IS

= (12)+(2×1)+(16)

= 12+2+16

=30 G/MOL

n= molar mass of the compound ÷ empirical formula mass of the compound

so, n= 146.1 ÷30

n=5

molecular formula = n×empirical formula

Which statement about Fe is supported by the modern atomic theory but not John Dalton’s theory?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

One of the claims of John Dalton's atomic theory is that atom is the smallest unit of matter (which suggests that there are no particles smaller than an atom in any matter). This claim has been disproved by the modern atomic theory which established that there are particles smaller than atom (called subatomic particles). These particles are electrons, protons and neutrons.

One of the modern atomic theory was by Neils Bohr, who proposed that <u>electrons move in circular orbits around the central nucleus</u>. Thus, the electrons of iron can also be said to be present in a region of space (circular path) around the nucleus. This proves that option B is the correct option as John Dalton's theory did not even recognize the electron(s) nor the nucleus.

How many grams are in 44.8 liters of nitrogen gas, n2?<br> a) 56g<br> b) 27g<br> c) 36g<br> d) 112g
kkurt [141]

a) 56g

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

At STP,

22.4 L of N₂ = 1 mol

We have given 44.8 L of N₂, therefore,

44.8 L of N₂ = \frac{44.8}{22.4}

                    = 2 mol

We know that,

1 mol of N₂ = 28 g

Hence,

2 mol of N₂ = 28 × 2

                   = 56g

Hence, there are 56 g of N₂ in 44.8 L of nitrogen gas.
