Explanation:
The balanced equation of the reaction is given as;
Mg(OH)2 (s) + 2 HBr (aq) → MgBr2 (aq) + 2 H2O (l)
1. How many grams of MgBr2 will be produced from 18.3 grams of HBr?
From the reaction;
2 mol of HBr produces 1 mol of MgBr2
Converting to masses using;
Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass
Molar mass of HBr = 80.91 g/mol
Molar mass of MgBr2 = 184.113 g/mol
This means;
(2 * 80.91 = 161.82g) of HBr produces (1 * 184.113 = 184.113g) MgBr2
18.3g would produce x
161.82 = 184.113
18.3 = x
x = (184.113 * 18.3 ) / 161.82 = 20.8 g
2. How many moles of H2O will be produced from 18.3 grams of HBr?
Converting the mass to mol;
Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass = 18.3 / 80.91 = 0.226 mol
From the reaction;
2 mol of HBr produces 2 mol of H2O
0.226 mol would produce x
2 =2
0.226 = x
x = 0.226 * 2 / 2 = 0.226 mol
3. How many grams of Mg(OH)2 are needed to completely react with 18.3 grams of HBr?
From the reaction;
2 mol of HBr reacts with 1 mol of Mg(OH)2
18.3g of HBr = 0.226 mol
2 = 1
0.226 = x
x = 0.226 * 1 /2
x = 0.113 mol
Answer:
THE EMPIRICAL FORMULA OF THE SUBSTANCE IS C2H5NO
Explanation:
The steps involved in calculating the empirical formula of this substance in shown in the table below:
Element Carbon Hydrogen Nitrogen Oxygen
1. % Composition 40.66 8.53 23.72 27.09
2. Mole ratio =
%mass/ atomic mass 40.66/12 8.53/1 23.72/14 27.09/16
= 3.3883 8.53 1,6943 1.6931
3. Divide by smallest
value (0.6931) 3.3883/1.6931 8.53/1.6931 1.6943/1.6931 1.6931/1.6931
= 2.001 5.038 1.0007 1
4. Whole number ratio 2 5 1 1
The empirical formula = C2H5NO
