Answer:
Option A. FeCl3
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass of iron (Fe) = 6.25g
Mass of the compound formed = 18g
From the question, we were told that the compound formed contains chlorine. Therefore the mass of chlorine is obtained as follow
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = Mass of compound formed – Mass of iron.
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 18 – 6.25
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g
The compound therefore contains:
Iron (Fe) = 6.25g
Chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g
The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained by doing the following:
Step 1:
Divide by their molar mass
Fe = 6.25/56 = 0.112
Cl = 11.75/35.5 = 0.331
Step 2:
Divide by the smallest
Fe = 0.112/0.112 = 1
Cl = 0.331/0.112 = 3
The empirical formula for the compound is FeCl3
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
1.93 g
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>We are given;</u>
The chemical equation;
2C₂H₆(g) + 7O₂(g) → 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(l) ΔH = -3120 kJ
We are required to calculate the mass of ethane that would produce 100 kJ of heat.
- 2 moles of ethane burns to produce 3120 Kilo joules of heat
Number of moles that will produce 100 kJ will be;
= (2 × 100 kJ) ÷ 3120 kJ)
= 0.0641 moles
- But, molar mass of ethane is 30.07 g/mol
Therefore;
Mass of ethane = 0.0641 moles × 30.07 g/mol
= 1.927 g
= 1.93 g
Thus, the mass of ethane that would produce 100 kJ of heat is 1.93 g
