Answer:

The answer would be C 214g

Explanation:

890j of heat causes 4.6°c increase in temperature

specific heat of aluminium after is o.9022 j /g°c

now by using the formula .The mass of aluminium would be c that is 214 g

<u>Answer:</u> The molecular formula for the given organic compound is C_{18}H_{20}O_2

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of CO_2=39.61g

Mass of H_2O=9.01g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

<u>For calculating the mass of carbon:</u>

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 39.61 g of carbon dioxide, \frac{12}{44}\times 39.61=10.80g of carbon will be contained.

<u>For calculating the mass of hydrogen:</u>

In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 9.01 g of water, \frac{2}{18}\times 9.01=1.00g of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (13.42) - (10.80 + 1.00) = 1.62 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

  • <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = \frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{10.80g}{12g/mole}=0.9moles

Moles of Hydrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{1g}{1g/mole}=1moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{1.62g}{16g/mole}=0.10moles

  • <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.10 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{0.9}{0.10}=9

For Hydrogen = \frac{1}{0.10}=10

For Oxygen = \frac{0.10}{0.10}=1

  • <u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 9 : 10 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is C_9H_{10}O

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

n=\frac{\text{Molecular mass}}{\text{Empirical mass}}

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 268.34 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 134 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

n=\frac{268.34g/mol}{134g/mol}=2

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

C_{(9\times 2)}H_{(10\times 2)}O_{(1\times 2)}=C_{18}H_{20}O_2

Thus, the molecular formula for the given organic compound is C_{18}H_{20}O_2.

Vlad [161]

can be oxidized to form carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Oxygen is important in the oxidation of glucose because it can be oxidized to form carbon dioxide. Oxidation of glucose involves the reaction of oxygen with glucose in a process called respiration. This gives a product of water, carbon dioxide and energy which is stored as ATP.

  • Oxidation involves the addition of oxygen.
  • Any specie that undergoes oxidation, is a reducing agent and it is said to be oxidized.
  • Oxygen is oxidized to form carbon dioxide and water.
