A compound with the empirical formula ch2 has a molar mass of 98 g/mol what is the molecular formula for this compound ?

1 answer:

7 0

Approximate molecular masses:
Molecular mass of C = 12
Molecular mass of H = 1

Let n = moles required for CH₂.
Then
nCH₂ = 98
n(12 + 2*1) = 98
14n = 98
n = 7

Answer: The molecular formula is 7CH₂

Acetic acid (HC2H3O2, Ka=1.8x10^-5) is a weak acid. Calculate the pH of an aqueous solution of .25M acetic acid.

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer: The pH of an aqueous solution of .25M acetic acid is 2.7

Explanation:

$HC_2H_3O_2\rightarrow H^+C_2H_3O_2^-$

cM 0 0

$c-c\alpha$ $c\alpha$ $c\alpha$

So dissociation constant will be:

$K_a=\frac{(c\alpha)^{2}}{c-c\alpha}$

Give c= 0.25 M and $\alpha$ = ?

$K_a=1.8\times 10^{-5}$

Putting in the values we get:

$1.8\times 10^{-5}=\frac{(0.25\times \alpha)^2}{(0.25-0.25\times \alpha)}$

$(\alpha)=0.0084$

$[H^+]=c\times \alpha$

$[H^+]=0.25\times 0.0084=0.0021$

Also $pH=-log[H^+]$

$pH=-log[0.0021]=2.7$

Thus pH is 2.7

If an atom with a mass number of 27 has 14 neutrons,it is an isotope of which element

kkurt [141]

Answer:

the number of neutrons in above isotope = A - Z = 27 - 13 = 14. Note: The molar mass of aluminium, which is average of atomic masses of all isotopes = 26.981538 g/mol, since 13Al27 is the major isotope.

A sample of the compound magnesium oxide is synthesized as follows. 60. g of magnesium is burned and produces 100. g of magnesiu

Inga [223]

Answer:

30 g of magnesium would be combined with 20 g of oxygen. The law used solving this problem is the Lavoisier Law of conservation of mass.

Explanation:

If 60 g of magnesium combines with 40 g of oxygen to make 100 g of magnesium oxide, then 30 g of magnesium will combine with 20 g of oxygen to make 50 g of magnesium oxide.

This happens because in a chemical reaction there is no creation or descruction of atoms, only a rearrangement. Therefore, the mass of reactants should be equal to the mass of products.

The following equation represents the proportions of the substances:

Mg + 1/2O₂ → MgO
