What is the answer to question 7, NH4C2H3O2

Determine the empirical and molecular formula for a compound containing 26.1

kobusy [5.1K]

determing that the compoumd formed is in 100%

therefore, 26.1 +4.3+69.6 = 100%

hence no need of adding O molecule

finding the numbr of moles of each element

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

=26.1÷12

=2.1 mol

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

=4.3÷1

=4.3 mol

no of moles of O =given mass÷molar mass

=69.6÷16

=4.3

the simplest whole nber of the element in the unknown compoumd is 1:2:2 of C:H:O

HENCE, the empirical formula is CH2O2

empirical formula mass of CH2O2 IS

=(12)+(2×1)+(16×2)

12+2+32

46 G/MOL

N= molar mass of the compoumd ÷ emporical mass of the compoumd

N= 138÷46

N=3

molecular formula =N×empirical formula

=3 ×CH2O2

C3H6O6 is the molecular formula

(tartonic acid)

Answer:

A binary covalent compound is composed of two different elements (usually nonmetals). For example, a molecule of chlorine trifluoride, ClF3 contains 1 atom of chlorine and 3 atoms of fluorine.

Rule 1. The element with the lower group number is written first in the name; the element with the higher group number is written second in the name. Exception: when the compound contains oxygen and a halogen, the name of the halogen is the first word in the name.

Rule 2. If both elements are in the same group, the element with the higher period number is written first in the name.

Rule 3. The second element in the name is named as if it were an anion, i.e., by adding the suffix -ide to the root of the element name (e.g., fluorine = F, "fluoride" = F-; sulfur = S, "sulfide" = S2-).

Rule 4. Greek prefixes are used to indicate the number of atoms of each element in the chemical formula for the compound. Exception: if the compound contains one atom of the element that is written first in the name, the prefix "mono-" is not used.
