Knowing the ratio between atoms we can write an empirical formula: 

<span>C4H6O </span>

<span>we compute the molar mass of this single formula: </span>
<span>4x12 + 6 x 1 + 16 x1 = 70 g / mol </span>

<span>Now, as we know the actual molar mas being 280 g/mol, we divide this number by 70 and we get the ratio between empirical formula and molecular actual formula: </span>

<span>280 / 70 = 4 </span>

<span>This means that actual molecular formula is: </span>

<span>(C4H6O)4 or </span>

<span>C16H24O4 </span>

Please HELP! Use the following Equations to answer the problem: CH3OH + O2 —&gt; CO2 + H2O
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

1)

Balanced chemical reaction

              2CH₃OH  + 3O₂  ⇒    2 CO₂  +  4H₂O

          Reactant            Element         Product

                2                         C                    2

                8                         H                    8

                8                         O                    8        

Molar mass of CH₃OH = 2[12 + 16 + 4]

                                     = 2[32]

                                     = 64 g

Molar mass of O₂ = 3[16 x 2] = 96 g

Theoretical proportion CH₃OH/O₂ = 64 g/96g = 0.67

Experimental proportion CH₃OH/O₂ = 60/48 = 1.25

Conclusion

The limiting reactant is O₂ because the Experimental proportion was higher than the theoretical proportion

2)

Balanced chemical reaction

                         S₈  +  12O₂  ⇒    8SO₃

             Reactant     Elements     Products

                    8                  S                8

                   24                 O              24

Molar mass of S₈ = 32 x 8 = 256 g

Molar mass of O₂ = 12 x 32 = 384 g

Theoretical proportion S₈ / O₂ = 256 / 384

                                                  = 0.67

Experimental proportion S₈ / O₂ = 40 / 35

                                                     = 1.14

Conclusion

The limiting reactant is O₂ because the experimental proportion was lower than the theoretical proportion.

Carbon disulfide, CS2, can be made from coke, C(s), and sulfur dioxide, SO2(g). C(s) + SO2(g) à CS2(s) + CO2(g) If the actual yi
Virty [35]

Answer:

450g of coke (C)

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

3C(s) + 2SO2(g) —> CS2(s) + 2CO2(g)

Step 2:

Determination of the mass of C that reacted and the mass of CS2 produced from the balanced equation.

This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of C = 12g/mol

Mass of C from the balanced equation = 3 x 12 = 36g

Molar Mass of CS2 = 12 + (32x2) = 12 + 64 = 76g/mol.

From the balanced equation above, 36g of C reacted to produce 76g of CS2.

Step 3:

Determination of the mass of C required to produce 950g of CS2. This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above, 36g of C reacted to produce 76g of CS2.

Therefore, Xg of C will react to produce 950g of CS2 i.e

Xg of C = (36 x 950)/76

Xg of C = 450g

From the calculations made above, 450g of coke (C) is needed to produce 950g of CS2.
