Since the compound has 1.38 time that of oxygen gas at the same conditions of temperature and pressure, we have the relationship:
MW/MWoxygen = 1.38
MW = 44.16
Since there is water formed during the reaction, the formula of the compound must be:
XaHb
where a and b are the coefficients of each element.
If the compound reactions with oxygen forming water and an oxide of the element X, the combustion reaction must be:
XaHb + ((2a + (b/2))/2) O2 = a (XO2) + (b/2)(H2O)
Using dimensional analysis:
10 (1/44.16) (b/2 / 1) (18) = 16.3
Solving for b:
b = 8
The compound now is XaH8. Most probably, the compound is C3H8 since it has a molecular formula of 44 and it reacts with O2 to form water and CO2.
Data Given:
Time = t = ?
Current = I = 10 A
Faradays Constant = F = 96500
Chemical equivalent = e = 107.86/1 = 107.86 g
Amount Deposited = W = 17.3 g
Solution:
According to Faraday's Law,
W = I t e / F
Solving for t,
t = W F / I e
Putting values,
t = (17.3 g × 96500) ÷ (10 A × 107.86 g)
t = 1547.79 s
t = 1.54 × 10³ s
Answer: Gas
Explanation:
since the gas molecules arent being forcefully bonded together like a solid would be, and liquids tend to have lower kinetic energy than solids
