One difference between molecular formula and molecular weight.​

Chemistry
1 answer:
jek_recluse [69]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: The formula mass (formula weight) of a molecule is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in its empirical formula. The molecular mass (molecular weight) of a molecule is its average mass as calculated by adding together the atomic weights of the atoms in the molecular formula.

Hope this helps.... Stay safe and have a great weekend!!!!! :D

C3H8 + O2 → CO2 + H2O
andreyandreev [35.5K]
First, we'll balance the equation
C3H8 + 5O2 --> 3CO2 + 4H2O
Next, we know that a gas at stp occupies 22.4 liters/mole, so we can find the number of moles of oxygen gas.
15 liters O2 * (1 mole O2)/(22.4 liters O2) = 0.67 moles O2
Now we know from our balanced equation that there are 3 moles of CO2 per mole of O2, so we can find the number of moles of CO2 we produce.
0.67 moles O2 * (3 moles CO2/5 moles O2) = 0.40 moles CO2
Now, we have the number of moles of CO2, and we know that one mole occupies 22.4 liters, we can find the number of liters
.40 moles CO2 * (22.4 liters CO2)/(1 mole CO2) = 9.0 liters of CO2
The answer is D

Calculate the mass of 0. 4 moles of water.​
Anna [14]

Answer:

7.208 g

Explanation:

0.4mol x \frac{2(1.01) + 16.00 g}{1 mol}

= 7.208 g

You are using molar mass of H20 to find the mass. Moles of 0.4 and 1 mol cancel out leaving you with just grams. You get the values in the numerator from the periodic table and the 2(1.01) is because you have 2 of the H in H20

Which of these statements about atomic models is most likely correct?
taurus [48]

Answer:

The correct option is the second option

Explanation:

Generally, the aim of science is to understand a particular concept in the best and the most correct way possible; hence experiments are done and repeated to ensure an explanation is actually true about a concept or need modification.

The atomic models have also been a "beneficiary" of this process. The different atomic models are usually been improved upon as scientists leaned more. For example, the Dalton's atomic theory has been modified to a more correct atomic description; some of which are shown below

(1) Dalton's theory suggested that an atom is the smallest unit of a molecule. We know now from different experiments (by J. J Thompson and Rutherford) that atoms are not the smallest molecules and are made up of smaller particles known as protons, neutrons and electrons.

(2) Dalton's theory suggested that atoms of the same elements are alike in all aspects. The knowledge of isotopy shows this is not always the case. As atoms of the same elements (isotopes) have the same atomic number but different mass number; hence cannot be said to be the same in all aspects.

(3) Dalton's theory also suggested that when atoms react, they do so in fixed, simple whole number ratio. The knowledge of organic chemistry shows atoms do not always react in simple whole number ratios

There are several modifications to different postulations by scientists that have also occurred aside from this, hence the most correct answer is that "As scientists learned more, they modified the atomic model"

The plane of the Moon's orbit around the Earth is tilted by 5° with respect to the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun, the ecliptic. This tilt prevents an eclipse from occurring at every new and full moon. In a lunar eclipse, the observer watches the Earth's shadow fall on the Moon.
