What information does an empirical formula give?

Chemistry
1 answer:
r-ruslan [8.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

C. The lowest whole-number ratio of atoms in a molecule.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the definition of the empirical and the molecular equations, it is possible for us to consider the following example of molecular formula, C4H10, whose empirical formula is C2H5.

In such a way, it is possible for us to say that the empirical formula gives C. The lowest whole-number ratio of atoms in a molecule, as it is the result of the simplification of the molecular formula when possible.

Regards!

1. What Volume of HCl is generated if 3.44 g of Cl2 are reacted at STP? 2. What volume does 4.87 mol of Kr have at STP? 3. What
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

1. 2.17 dm3 VOLUME OF HCl IS PRODUCED WHEN 3.44 g OF Cl2 REACT AT STP

2. 4.87 MOLE OF Kr AT STP CONTAINS 109.088 dm3 .

3. THE PRESSURE WHEN 3.44 g OF Cl2 are reacted at 4.55 L AT 455 K IS 0.77 atm

Explanation:

1 Volume of HCl if 3.44 g of Cl2 are reacted at STP?

Equation for the reaction:

H2 + Cl2 ---------> 2HCl

1 mole of Cl2 reacts to form 2 mole of HCl

At STP, 1 mole of a gas is equal to the molar mass of the gas sample

35.5 * 2 g of Cl2 reacts to form 2 mole of HCl

3.44 g of Cl2 will react to form  ( 3.44 * 2 / 71 ) mole of HCl

= 0.0969 mole of HCl

1 mole of HCl = 22.4 dm3

0.0969 mole of HCl = ( 22.4 * 0.0969 / 1)

= 2.17056 dm3

The volume of HCl is 2.17 dm3 when 3.44 g of Cl2 are reacted at STP.

2. What volume does 4.87 mol of Kr have at STP?

1 mole of a substance is 22.4 dm3 of the sample

1 mole of Kr = 22.4 dm3

4.87 mole of  Kr = 4.87 * 22.4

= 109.088 dm3

4.87 mole of Kr at STP contains 109.088 dm3 volume

3. Whta pressure of HCl is generated if 3.44 g of Cl2 are reacted at 4.55 L at 455 K

Using the formula:

PV = nRT

V = 4.55 L

R = 0.082 L atm/ mol K

T = 455 K

m = 3.44 g

n = mass / molar mass

molar mass = ( 1 + 35.5) = 36.5 g/mol

n = 3.44 g / 36.5 g/mol

n = 0.094 mole

P = nRT / V

P = 0.094 * 0.082 * 455 / 4.55

P = 3.50714 / 4.55

P = 0.7708 atm

The pressure of HCl if 3.44 g of Cl2 are reacted at 4.55 L and 455 K is 0.7708 atm.

Consider the reaction Mg₂Si(s) + 4 H₂O(ℓ) → 2 Mg(OH)₂(aq) + SiH₄(g). How many grams of silane gas (SiH₄) are formed if 25.0 g of
Neko [114]

Answer:

10.60 grams of silane gas are formed.

Explanation:

From the reaction:

Mg₂Si(s) + 4H₂O(l) → 2Mg(OH)₂(aq) + SiH₄(g)          

We know that the limiting reactant is Mg₂Si, so to find the mass of SiH₄ formed we need to calculate the number of moles of Mg₂Si:

\eta_{Mg_{2}Si} = \frac{m_{Mg_{2}Si}}{M_{Mg_{2}Si}}

Where:

m: is the mass of Mg₂Si = 25.0 g

M: is the molar mass of Mg₂Si = 76.69 g/mol

\eta_{Mg_{2}Si} = \frac{m_{Mg_{2}Si}}{M_{Mg_{2}Si}} = \frac{25.0 g}{76.69 g/mol} = 0.33 moles

Now, the stoichiometric relation between Mg₂Si and SiH₄ is 1:1 so:

\eta_{Mg_{2}Si} = \eta_{SiH_{4}} = 0.33 moles

Finally, the mass of SiH₄ is:

m_{SiH_{4}} = \eta_{SiH_{4}}*M_{SiH_{4}} = 0.33 moles*32.12 g/mol = 10.60 g

Therefore, 10.60 grams of silane gas are formed.

I hope it helps you!

etermine the number of valence electrons for each of the atoms. Enter each answer as a numeral. For example, if an atom has two
Sav [38]

Answer:

1. 1

2. 2

3. 6

4. 8

Explanation:

Valence electrons can be defined as the number of electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. Valence electrons are used to determine whether an atom or group of elements found in a periodic table can bond with others. Thus, this property is typically used to determine the chemical properties of elements.

1. Li is the symbol for the chemical element known as Lithium: it has 1 valence electron. The electronic configuration of lithium is 1s²2s¹

2. Mg is the symbol for the chemical element known as Magnesium: it has 2 valence electrons. The electronic configuration of magnesium is 1s²2s²2p63s²

3. O is the symbol for the chemical element known as Oxygen: it has 6 valence electrons. The electronic configuration of magnesium is 1s²2s²2p⁴.

4. Ne is the symbol for the chemical element known as Neon: it has 8 valence electrons.

Calculate the ph of sweater which has a hydrogen ion concentration of 1 times 10 to the power of 8
telo118 [61]

Answer:

The pH of the sweater containing Hydrogen ion concentration

[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8} is

<u>8</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

pH = It is the negative logarithm of activity (concentration) of hydrogen ions.

pH = -log([H+])

Now, In the question the concentration of [H+] ions is :

[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{-8}

pH = -log(1\times 10^{-8})

use the relation:

log(10^{-a})=a

pH= -(-8)

pH = 8

Note : <em><u> 1 times 10 to the power of 8 must be" 1 times 10 to the power of -8"</u></em>

If the concentration is

[H^{+}]=1\times 10^{8}

Then pH = -8 , which is not possible . So in that  case the pH calculation is by other method
