Data: molar mass 470 g/mol
Percent composition:
Hg = 85.0%
Cl = 15.0%
Solution:
1) Convert % to molar ratios
A. Base: 100 g
=> Hg = 85.0 g / 200.59 g/mol = 0.4235 mol
Cl = 15.0 g / 35.45 g/mol = 0.4231 mol
B. divide by the higher number and round to whole number
Hg = 0.4325 / 0.4231 = 1.00
Cl = 0.4231 / 0.4231 = 1.00
=> Empirical formula = Hg Cl
2) Find the mass of the empirical formula:
HgCl: 200.59 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol = 236.04
3) Determine how many times is the empirical mass contained in the molecular mass:
470 g/mol / 236.04 = 1.99 ≈ 2
=> Molecular formula = Hg2 Cl2.
Answers:
Empirical formula HgCl
Molecular Formula Hg2Cl2
Answer:
The concentration of the solution is 5.8168 ×
mol.
Explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the concentration of the solution.
The unit of this is mol/dm^3
So the first thing to do here is to calculate the number of moles of the solute present, which is the number of moles of AlCO3
The number of moles = mass/molar mass
molar mass of AlCO3 = 27 + 12 + 3(16) = 27 + 12 + 48 = 87g/mol
Number of moles = 33.4/87 = 0.384 moles
This 0.384 moles is present in 660 L
x moles will be present in 1 dm^3
Recall 1 dm^3 = 1L
x * 660 = 0.384 * 1
x = 0.384/660 = 0.00058168 = 5.8168 * 10^-4 mol/dm^3
Answer:
The temperature is 288, 88K
Explanation:
We use the formula PV= nRT:
T= PV/nR
T= 0,987 atm x12 L/0,50 mol x 0,082 l atm/K mol
<em>T=288,88K</em>
