Isobutylene is a hydrocarbon used in the manufacture of synthetic rubber. when 0.847 g of isobutylene was subjected to combustio

n analysis, the gain in mass of the co2 absorber was 2.657 g and that of the h2o absorber was 1.089 g. what is the empirical formula of isobutylene?

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.

Explain the different principles that allow roller coasters to rip and roar around the tracks. In your response, include how ene
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

In the roller coasters the potential energy that is given is the gravitational potential energy, which this energy increases its value as the object moves away from the earth, that is to say, the more height the roller coaster acquires the more gravitational potential energy it will have, and Said train where people usually get on the roller coaster will descend or descend with greater acceleration.

This gravitational potential energy once the mountain begins to descend or descend is converted into kinetic energy

Explanation:

This that we wrote above is considering that the roller coaster does not have curved routes but rectilinear, in the case that it had curved routes, a force would be added in addition to those written that is the centripetal force, it is the same force that appears in the centrifuges or dryers of clothes or the same washing machine. This force, the centripetal force is the force that draws a moving object, in a curvilinear path, towards the center of the curvature.

S + 02<br> C + 02<br> Cu0 + H2SO4
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

S + 02= S0 - 4 e- → SIV (oxidation); 2 O0 + 4 e- → 2 O-II (reduction)

C + 02= C

Cu0 + H2SO4= CuO + H2SO4 → CuSO4 + H2O
