Basis of the calculation: 100g
For Carbon:
Mass of carbon = (100 g)(0.80) = 80 g
Number of moles of carbon = (80 g)(1 mole / 12g) = 20/3
For Hydrogen:
Mass of hydrogen = (100 g)(0.20) = 20 g
Number of moles of hydrogen = (20 g)(1 mole / 1 g) = 20
Translating the answer to the formula of the substance,
C20/3H20
Dividing the answer,
CH3
The molar mass of the empirical formula is:
12 + 3 = 15 g/mol
Since, the molar mass given for the molecular formula is 30.069 g/mol, the molecular equation is,
C2H6
ANSWER: C2H6
Explanation:
When a substance or solution has pH equal to 7 then it is known as a neutral solution. And a solution with pH more than 7 is basic in nature.
Antacid is a base that has chemical formula
and it is also known as magnesium hydroxide.
Hence, an antacid has pH greater than 7 (making it basic) so that it can neutralize the acid.
Therefore, when excess of acid is formed in the stomach then there occurs more hydrogen ions. Due to which pain is felt in the stomach and in this situation when an antacid is consumed then it releases hydroxide ions as it is a base due to which acid gets neutralized and we feel relieved.
Hence, we can conclude that the pH of an antacid solution that is used to neutralize excess stomach acid is more than 7.
It is a liquid at room temp.
