Answer:

1. The empirical formula => C₆H₁₀OS₂

2. Molecular formula => C₃₆H₆₀O₆S₁₂

Explanation:

1. Determination of the empirical formula.

Carbon (C) = 2.96 g

Hydrogen (H) = 0.414 g

Oxygen (O) = 0.675 g

Sulphur (S) = 2.96 g

Divide by their molar mass

C = 2.96 / 12 = 0.247

H = 0.414 / 1 = 0.414

O = 0.675 / 16 = 0.042

S = 2.96 / 32 = 0.0925

Divide by the smallest

C = 0.247 / 0.042 = 6

H = 0.414 / 0.042 = 10

O = 0.042 / 0.042 = 1

S = 0.0925 /0.042 = 2

Therefore, the empirical formula is

C₆H₁₀OS₂

2. Determination of the molecular formula.

Molar mass of compound = 972 g/mol

Empirical formula => C₆H₁₀OS₂

Molecular formula =>?

Molecular formula = [C₆H₁₀OS₂]ₙ

Molecular formula = molar mass of compound

Thus,

[C₆H₁₀OS₂]ₙ = 972

[(12×6) + (10×1) + 16 + (32×2)]n = 972

[72 + 10 + 16 + 64]n = 32

162n = 972

Divide both side by 162

n = 972 / 162

n = 6

Molecular formula = [C₆H₁₀OS₂]ₙ

Molecular formula = [C₆H₁₀OS₂]₆

Molecular formula = C₃₆H₆₀O₆S₁₂

Name 2 different types of local winds and explain each.please.

marshall27 [118]

1. Planetary Winds:

The winds blowing throughout the year from one latitude to another in response to latitudinal differences in air pressure are called “planetary or prevailing winds”. They involve large areas of the globe.

4. Periodic Winds:

Periodic winds change their direction periodically with the change in season, e.g., Monsoons, Land and Sea Breezes, Mountain and Valley Breezes.

Two linear hydrocarbons, Hexane (C6H14) and Heptane (C7H16), form pretty much an ideal solution at any composition. A solution i

Anettt [7]

Answer:

$y_{C_6H_{14}}=0.92$

Explanation:

Hello,

At first, we compute liquid-phase molar fractions:

$n_{C_6H_{14}}=463.96 g*\frac{1mol}{86g} =5.3949molC_6H_{14}\\n_{C_7H_{16}}=667.71 g*\frac{1mol}{100g} =6.6771molC_7H_{16}\\x_{C_6H_{14}}=\frac{5.3949}{5.3949+6.6771} =0.447\\x_{C_7H_{16}}=1-x_{C_6H_{14}}=0.553$

Now, by means of the fugacity concept, for hexane, for instance, we have:

$f_{C_6H_{14}}^V=f_{C_6H_{14}}^L\\y_{C_6H_{14}}p_T=x_{C_6H_{14}}p_{C_6H_{14}}$

In this manner, at 25 °C the vapor pressure of hexane and heptane are 0.198946 atm and 0.013912 atm repectively, thus, the total pressure is:

$p_T=x_{C_6H_{14}}p_{C_6H_{14}}+x_{C_7H_{16}}p_{C_7H_{16}}\\p_T=0.447*0.198946 atm +0.553*0.013912 atm=0.096622atm$

Finally, from the hexane's fugacity equation, we find its mole fraction in the vapour as:

$y_{C_6H_{14}}=\frac{x_{C_6H_{14}}p_{C_6H_{14}}}{p_T}=\frac{0.447*0.198946 atm}{0.096622atm} \\y_{C_6H_{14}}=0.92$

Best regards.

Consider this reaction. What volume of oxygen gas, in milliliters, is required to react with 0.640 g of SO2 gas at S TP? 11.2 mL

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

112mL

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 0.640g of SO2.

This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of SO2 = 32 + (16x2) = 64g/mol

Mass of SO2 = 0.640g

Number of mole of SO2 =.?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Number of mole of SO2 = 0.640/64

Number of mole of SO2 = 0.01 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of O2 required for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2SO2(g) + O2(g) —> 2SO3(g)

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of SO2 reacted with 1 mole of O2.

Therefore, 0.01 mole of SO2 will react with = (0.01 x 1)/2 = 0.005 mole of O2.

Therefore, 0.005 mole of O2 is required for the reaction.

Finally, we shall determine the volume of O2 required for the reaction as follow:

Note: 1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L (22400mL) at stp.

1 mole of O2 occupy 22400mL at stp.

Therefore, 0.005 mole of O2 will occupy = 0.005 x 22400 = 112mL

Therefore, 112mL of O2 is required for the reaction.
