The combustion reaction is as expressed,
CxHy + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
The mass fraction of carbon in CO2 is 3/11. Hence,
mass of C in CO2 = (3.14 g)(3/11) = 0.86 g C.
Given that we have 1 g of the hydrocarbon, the mass of H is equal to 0.14 g.
moles of C = 0.86 g C / 12 g = 0.0713
moles of H = 0.14 g H / 1 g = 0.14
The empirical formula for the hydrocarbon is therefore, CH₂.
The mass of a sample of alcohol is found to be = m = 367 g
Hence, it is found out that by raising the temperature of the given product, the mass of alcohol would be 367 g.
Explanation:
The Energy of the sample given is q = 4780
We are required to find the mass of alcohol m = ?
Given that,
The specific heat given is represented by = c = 2.4 J/gC
The temperature given is ΔT = 5.43° C
The mass of sample of alcohol can be found as follows,
The formula is c = 
We can drive value of m bu shifting m on the left hand side,
m = 
mass of alcohol (m) = 
m = 367 g
Therefore, The mass of the given sample of alcohol is
m = 367g
It requires 4780 J of heat to raise the temperature by 5.43 C in the process which yields a mass of 367 g of alcohol.
Answer: An Element
Explanation:
An element is a substance that cannot be split into smaller substance. It is made up of one kind of atom and can exist either as molecules (e.g nitogen) or an atom (e.g argon).
<h2>
Hello!</h2>
The answer is:
The empirical formula is the option B. 
<h2>
Why?</h2>
The empirical formula of a compound is the simplest formula that can be written. On the opposite, the molecular formula involves a variant of the same compound, but it can be also simplified to an empirical formula.

We are looking for a formula that cannot be simplified by dividing the number of molecules/atoms that conforms the compound.
Let's discard option by option in order to find which formula is an empirical formula (cannot be simplified)
A. 
It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.

B. 
It's an empirical formula since it cannot be obtained by the multiplication of a whole number and the simplest formula. It's the simplest formula that we can find of the compound.
C. 
It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.

D. 
It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.

Hence, the empirical formula is the option B. 
Have a nice day!
You can boil or evaporate the water and the salt will be left behind as a solid. If you want to collect the water, you can use distillation. This works because salt has a much higher boiling point than water. One way to separate salt and water at home is to boil the salt water in a pot with a lid. So, I would say maybe oil.
