Answer: The empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is CH and $C_{10}H_{10}$ and it is not an alkane.

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon and hydrogen follows:

$C_xH_y+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O$

where, 'x' and 'y' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2=0.364g$

Mass of $H_2O=0.0596g$

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.364 g of carbon dioxide, $\frac{12}{44}\times 0.364=0.0993g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.0596 g of water, $\frac{2}{18}\times 0.0596=0.0067g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.0993g}{12g/mole}=0.00828moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.0067g}{1g/mole}=0.0067moles$ ]

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.0067 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{0.00828}{0.0067}=1.23\approx 1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{0.0067}{0.0067}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H = 1 : 1

The empirical formula for the given compound is CH

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is:

$n=\frac{\text{Molecular mass}}{\text{Empirical mass}}$

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 128.2 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 13 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$n=\frac{128.2g/mol}{13g/mol}=9.86\approx 10$

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

$C_{(1\times 10)}H_{(1\times 10)}=C_{10}H_{10}$

The general formula of an alkane is $C_nH_{(2n+2)}$ , where n = any natural number

Here, n = 10 and it does not satisfy being an alkane

Hence, the empirical and molecular formula for the given organic compound is CH and $C_{10}H_{10}$ and it is not an alkane.

Explane factor affecting stability of alkene?

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Alkenes have substituents, hydrogen atoms attached to the carbons in the double bonds. The more substituents the alkenes have, the more stable they are. Thus, a tetra substituted alkene is more stable than a tri-substituted alkene, which is more stable than a di-substituted alkene or an unsubstituted one.

what is the number of pairs of electrons that are shared between the nitrogen atoms in a molecule of N2

lesantik [10]

A Nitrogen got 7 electrons, which means every Nitrogen got 3 pairs of electrons and 1 single electron, ready to be shared.
A second nitrogen come with the same amount of electrons, 3 pairs and 1 single ready to shared.
The 2 nitrogens put in common their single electrons to create a pair.
Which means, that 1 pair of electron is shared between the nitrogens in a molecule of N2

Hope this Helps! :)
