Explanation:

Let the mass of isoamyl acetate be 100g.

Moles of Carbon = 60.58/12 = 5.048mol

Moles of Hydrogen = 7.07/1 = 7.07mol

Moles of Oxygen = 32.28/16 = 2.018mol

Mole Ratio of C : H : O

= 5.048 : 7.07 : 2.018

= 5 : 7 : 2.

Hence the empirical formula of isoamyl acetate is C5H7O2.

Two separate masses of zinc were measured on a laboratory balance. The first zinc had a sample mass of 210.10g, and the second z
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Density is  7.15 g /mL.

Mass is  445.2 g.

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

Mass of first zinc sample = 210.10 g

Mass of second zinc sample = 235.10 g

Combined volume = 62.3 mL

Density of combined sample ?

Mass of combined sample = ?

Solution:

Mass of combined sample = 210.10 g + 235.10 g = 445.2 g

density = mass / volume

density = 445.2 g / 62.3 mL

density = 7.15 g /mL

Given the heat change per mole for the combustion of methanol (-726 kJ/mol), predict the heat change that would occur if 0.200 m
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

-145.2kJ

Explanation:

Enthalpy is an extensive property as its value depends on the amount of substance present in the system.

If the enthalpy for one mole of methanol = -726 kJ/mol;

The Enthalpy for 0.2 mol is given as;

Enthalpy = 0.200 * 726

Enthalpy = -145.2kJ

It would take -145.2kJ for 0.200 mol of methanol to undego the combustion reaction.

Calculate the mass of ZnCl2 produced by the reaction of 49.8 grams of H2. Zn + 2HCl ZnCl2 + H2
tester [92]

Answer:

3300.85 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of ZnCl₂ produced = ?

Mass of H₂ produced = 49.8 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Zn + 2HCl     →    ZnCl₂ + H₂

Number of moles of  H₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number  of moles = 49.8 g/ 2.056 g/mol

Number  of moles = 24.22 mol

Now we will compare the moles of H₂ with ZnCl₂ form balance chemical equation.

                         H₂              :              ZnCl₂

                          1                :                   1

                        24.22         :              24.22

Mass of ZnCl₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =  24.22 × 136.286 g/mol

Mass = 3300.85 g

2 HI(g) ⇄ H2(g) + I2(g) Kc = 0.0156 at 400ºC 0.550 moles of HI are placed in a 2.00 L container and the system is allowed to rea
Alex_Xolod [135]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of hydrogen gas at equilibrium is 0.0275 M

<u>Explanation:</u>

Molarity is calculated by using the equation:

\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

Moles of HI = 0.550 moles

Volume of container = 2.00 L

\text{Initial concentration of HI}=\frac{0.550}{2}=0.275M

For the given chemical equation:

                          2HI(g)\rightleftharpoons H_2(g)+I_2(g)

<u>Initial:</u>                  0.275

<u>At eqllm:</u>           0.275-2x      x         x

The expression of K_c for above equation follows:

K_c=\frac{[H_2][I_2]}{[HI]^2}

We are given:

K_c=0.0156

Putting values in above expression, we get:

0.0156=\frac{x\times x}{(0.275-2x)^2}\\\\x=-0.0458,0.0275

Neglecting the negative value of 'x' because concentration cannot be negative

So, equilibrium concentration of hydrogen gas = x = 0.0275 M

Hence, the concentration of hydrogen gas at equilibrium is 0.0275 M
