The molecular formula of a compound is C7H14O7. what is the empirical formula

1 answer:

6 0

Empirical formula is the simplest way the molecular formula can be wrote so here 7 goes into all of these so it would be CH2O

Combustion of hydrocarbons such as undecane (C_11H_24) produces carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse gas." Greenhouse gases in the Eart

Answer:

Volume of carbon dioxide is 428.23 L.

Explanation:

Below is the chemical reaction or chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbons such as undecane into carbon dioxide.

$C_{11}H_{24}(l) + 17O_{2}(g) \to 11CO_{2} (g) + 12H_2O(g)$

Here, undecane is in liquid form that reacts with gaseous oxygen (combustion) and produces carbon dioxide and water as a product in the gaseous form.

The molar mass of undecane = $156.31 g/mol.$

$\text{Number of moles} = \frac{260g}{156.31g/mol} = 1.66 \ mol.$

From the equation, it can be seen that 1 mole of undecane produces 11 moles of carbon dioxide. Therefore, 1.66 mol will produce 18.26 mol of carbon dioxide.

Now find the volume of 18.26 mol of carbon dioxide when the temperature is 13 degrees Celsius and pressure is 1 atm.

$V = \frac{nRT}{P} \\$

$V = \frac{18.26 \times 0.082 \times 286 \ K}{1atm} \\$

$V = 428.23 \ L$
