First we have to find moles of C:
Molar mass of CO2:
12*1+16*2 = 44g/mol
(18.8 g CO2) / (44.00964 g CO2/mol) x (1 mol C/ 1 mol CO2) =0.427 mol C
Molar mass of H2O:
2*1+16 = 18g/mol
As there is 2 moles of H in H2O,
So,

(6.75 g H2O) / (18.01532 g H2O/mol) x (2 mol H / 1 mol H2O) = 0.74mol H 

Divide both number of moles by the smaller number of moles: 
As Smaaler no moles is 0.427:
So,
Dividing both number os moles by 0.427 :
(0.427 mol C) / 0.427 = 1.000 
(0.74 mol H) / 0.427 = 1.733 

To achieve integer coefficients, multiply by 2, then round to the nearest whole numbers to find the empirical formula:
C = 1 * 2 = 2
H = 1.733 * 2 =3.466
So , the empirical formula is C2H3

A sample of oxygen gas is compressed from 30.6 L to 1.8 L at constant temperature pressure of 1.8 atm. Calculate the amount of e

ad-work [718]

Answer:

the change in the internal energy of the system is 3,752.67 J

Explanation:

Given;

initial volume of the gas, V₁ = 30.6 L

final volume of the gas, V₂ = 1.8 L

constant pressure of the gas, P = 1.8 atm

Energy released by the system, Q = 1.5 kJ = 1,500 J

Apply pressure-volume work equation, to determine the work done on the gas;

w = -PΔV

w = -P(V₂ - V₁)

w = - 1.8 atm(1.8 L - 30.6 L)

w = 51.84 L.atm

w = 51.84 L.atm x 101.325 J/L.atm

w = 5,252.67 J

The change in the internal energy of the system is calculated as;

ΔU = Q + w

Since the heat is given out, Q = - 1,500 J

ΔU = -1,500 J + 5,252.67 J

ΔU = 3,752.67 J

Therefore, the change in the internal energy of the system is 3,752.67 J

Calculate the Cal(kcal) in 1 cup of whole milk: 12 g of carbohydrate, 9 g of fat, and 9 g of protein.

laiz [17]

Fat: 1 gram = 9 calories Protein: 1 gram = 4 calories Carbohydrates: 1 gram = 4 calories Alcohol: 1 gram = 7 calories"
So, (12 g carbohydrates)*4 Cal=48 Cal; (9 g fat) *9 Cal=81 Cal; (9 g protein)*4 Cal=36 Cal
48 Cal + 81 Cal + 36 Cal = 165 Cal in one glass of milk
