Find the mass of C in the 2.657 g CO2:
(2.657 g CO2) / (44.01 g/mol) = 0.06037 mol CO2
Since each mole of CO2 also has 1 mole of C, this is equivalent to 0.06037 mol C.

Find the mass of H in the 1.089 g H2O:
(1.089 g H2O) / (18.02 g/mol) = 0.06043 mol H2O
Since 1 mol H2O has 2 mol H, this is equivalent to (0.06043)*2 = 0.1209 mol H.

Taking the ratio of H to C: 0.1209 / 0.06037 = 2.002 ~ 2
Therefore, the empirical formula of isobutylene is CH2.

Hello this is my 3 attempt, please someone answer this i'm begging you.

Answer:

Explanation:

No worries, I got you :)

So for the first question, you need to use PV=nRT to find the n, or in other words, the number of moles. Then, you can find the molar mass since you know the grams and the moles

110 kPa / 101.3 = 1.085 atm (I converted it to atm so I can use the .08206 L atm/ k mol  for the rate)

550 ml / 1000 = .550 L (I converted mL to L in order to use the .08206 L atm/ k mol for the Rate)

28.5 c + 273 = 301.5 K (I converted C to K in order to use the .08206 L atm/ k mol for the Rate)

PV=nRT

(1.085) (.550 L) = n (0.08206) (301.5)

Divide the (0.08206) (301.5) to get n alone:

(1.085) (.550 L) / (0.08206) (301.5) = n

When I divided, I got n= .02412 moles, and since we have 1.88g , we divide the 1.88 by .02412 to get the molar mass (grams/mole)

77.94 g/mole is the molar mass

we know that there are 3 H's in the compound, so we do 3(1.008) and subtract 77.94 by what you get.

3 x 1.008 = 3.024 -----> 77.94-3.024 = 74.9

Now we look at the periodic table and try to find an element that has a molar mass of 74.9

Arsenic (As) has a molar mass of 74.922, which is close enough. Plus, Arsenic has a charge of 3, so it fits with the 3 hydrogens.

How many grams of barium sulfate are produced if 25.34 mL of 0.113 M BaCl2 completely react given the reaction: BaCl2 (aq) + Na2
jeyben [28]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of barium sulfate produced in the given reaction is 0.667 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles from molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

Molarity of barium chloride = 0.113 M

Volume of barium chloride = 25.34 mL = 0.02534 L   (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.113mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of barium chloride}}{0.02534L}\\\\\text{Moles of barium chloride}=0.00286mol

For the given chemical reaction:

BaCl_2(aq.)+Na_2SO_4(aq.)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)+2NaCl(aq.)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of barium chloride is producing 1 mole of barium sulfate.

So, 0.00286 moles of barium chloride will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.00286mol=0.00286mol of barium sulfate.

Now, to calculate the mass of barium sulfate, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Molar mass of barium sulfate = 233.38 g/mol

Moles of barium sulfate = 0.00286 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.00286mol=\frac{\text{Mass of barium sulfate}}{233.38g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of barium sulfate}=0.667g

Hence, the amount of barium sulfate produced in the given reaction is 0.667 grams

Enter ionic and net equations: feso4(aq)+ na3po4(aq) arrow fe3(po4)2(s)+na2so4(aq)
stepan [7]

Answer:

<em> ionic equation : </em>3Fe(2+)(aq) + 3SO4(2-)(aq)+ 6Na(+)(aq) + 2PO4 (3-) (aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)+ 6Na(+) + 3SO4(2-)(aq)

<em> net ionic equation: </em>3Fe(2+)(aq)  + 2PO4 (3-)(aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)

Explanation:

The balanced equation is

3FeSO4(aq)+ 2Na3PO4(aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)+ 3Na2SO4(aq)

<em>Ionic equations: </em>Start with a balanced molecular equation.  Break all soluble strong electrolytes (compounds with (aq) beside them) into their ions . Indicate the correct formula and charge of each ion. Indicate the correct number of each ion . Write (aq) after each ion .Bring down all compounds with (s), (l), or (g) unchanged. The coefficents are given by the number of moles in the original equation

3Fe(2+)(aq) + 3SO4(2-)(aq)+ 6Na(+)(aq) + 2PO4 (3-) (aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)+ 6Na(+) + 3SO4(2-)(aq)

<em>Net ionic equations: </em>Write the balanced molecular equation.  Write the balanced complete ionic equation.  Cross out the spectator ions, it means the repeated ions that are present.  Write the "leftovers" as the net ionic equation.

3Fe(2+)(aq)  + 2PO4 (3-)(aq) → Fe3(PO4)2(s)

Select the keyword or phrase that will best complete each sentence.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

1) acetylide

2) enol

3) aldehydes

4) tautomers

5) alkynes

6) Hydroboration

7) Keto

8) methyl ketones

Explanation:

Acetylide anions (R-C≡C^-) is a strong nucleophile. Being a strong nucleophile, we can use it to open up an epoxide ring by SN2 mechanism. The attack of the acetylide ion occurs from the backside of the epoxide ring. It must attack at the less substituted side of the epoxide.

Oxomercuration of alkynes and hydroboration of alkynes are similar reactions in that they both yield carbonyl compounds that often exhibit keto-enol tautomerism.

The equilibrium position may lie towards the Keto form of the compound. Usually, if terminal alkynes are used, the product of the reaction is a methyl ketone.

Which of the following factors could you change in a system and not change its induced EMF?
krok68 [10]
The options attached to the question above are listed below:
A. Magnetic field.
B. Type of wire.
C. Velocity of the wire.
D. Length of the wire in the field.

ANSWER
The correct option is B.
The factors that determine the induced current in a system are: the number of wires in the coil, the strength of the magnetic field and speed of armature rotation [speed of cutting]. Generally, the induced electromotive force across a conductor is equal to the rate at which magnetic flux is cut by the conductor. The type of wire used does not affect the induced EMF.
