This problem handles<em> boiling-point elevation</em>, which means we will use the formula:

ΔT = Kb * m

Where ΔT is the difference of Temperature between boiling points of the solution and the pure solvent (Tsolution - Tsolvent). Kb is the ebullioscopic constant of the solvent (2.64 for benzene), and m is the molality of the solution.

Knowing that benzene's boiling point is 80.1°C, we <u>solve for m</u>:

Tsolution - Tsolvent = Kb * m

80.23 - 80.1 = 2.64 * m

m = 0.049 m

We use the definition of molality to <u>calculate the moles of azulene</u>:

0.049 m = Xmoles azulene / 0.099 kgBenzene

Xmoles azulene = 4.87 x10⁻³ moles azulene

We use the mass and the moles of azulene to<u> calculate its molecular weight</u>:

0.640 g / 4.875 x10⁻³ mol = 130.28 g/mol

<em>A molecular formula that would fulfill that molecular weight</em> is C₁₀H₁₀. So that's the result of solving this problem.

The actual molecular formula of azulene is C₁₀H₈.

In the reaction between a crushed antacid tablet and vinegar what gas is emitted
Pachacha [2.7K]

The answer is: emitted gas is carbon dioxide (CO₂).

Neutralization is is reaction in which an acid (in this example vinegar or acetic acid CH₃COOH) and a base (in this example soda)

Balanced chemical reaction of vinegar and antacid:

CH₃COOH(aq) + NaHCO₃(aq) → CH₃COONa(aq) + H₂O(l) + CO₂(g).

Sodium acetate (CH₃COONa) is a salt.

Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) is an antacid. Sodium bicarbonate is the active ingredient in baking soda.

What would you multiply "moles of oxygen" by to get the units "grams of oxygen"?
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

AM

Explanation:

to go from moles to grams you multiply by the Atomic Mass or Molar Mass (Atomic Mass for an element and Molar Mass for a compound).

The formula is:

Mass = moles * MM

sulfur combines with hydrogen to form hydrogen sulfide H2 S by single covalent bond, while it form with potassium by ionic bond​
Alex

Answer: Ions may be defined as the element that contains either positive or negative charge over them. Two types of ions are cations and anions. The outermost electrons are involved in the formation of ions.

The atomic number of sulfur is 16. Its outermost electronic configuration is K=2, L= 8, M= 6. The sulfur requres two more electrons to complete its orbit and accquire -2 charge.
