Answer:- Molecular formula of the compound is C_4H_6 .

Solution:- An empirical formula and molar mass of the compound is given and we are asked to calculate it's molecular formula. First of all we calculate the empirical formula mass and then divide the molar mass by empirical formula mass to find out the number of empirical formula units.

Empirical formula is multiplied by the number of empirical formula units to get the molecular formula.

Empirical formula mass = 2(12.01) + 3(1.01)

= 24.02 + 3.03

= 27.05

number of empirical formula units = \frac{54.091}{27.05}

= 2

So, molecular formula of the compound = 2(C_2H_3)

= C_4H_6

A 2.10 L vessel contains 4.65 mol of nitrous oxide (N2O) at 3.82 atm. What will be the pressure of this gas in a container that’
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7.64 atm

Explanation:

Data

Volume 1 = V1 = 2.1 l

moles = 4.65

Pressure 1 = P1 = 3.82 atm

Volume 2 = Volume 1/2

Pressure 2 = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the new volume

Volume 2 = 2.10/2

Volume 2 = 1.05 l

2.- Use Boyle's law to find the Pressure

             P1V1 = P2V2

-Solve for P2

              P2 = P1V1 / V2

-Substitution

              P2 = (3.82)(2.1) / 1.05

-Simplification

              P2 = 8.022/1.05

-Result

              P2 = 7.64 atm

What must break in order for water to change from solid to liquid to gas?
pogonyaev
When changing states, only the intermolecular forces are considered, which, in water's case are hydrogen bonds. In order to go from solid to liquid to gas, the hydrogen bonds between the water molecules must be weakened to a certain degree that allows the molecules to spread further apart in liquids, and must be broken altogether to separate the molecules in order to turn it into gas.
Therefore, the answer is d.

The reason it is not the covalent bonds within molecules (despite the fact that it will turn water into a gas, it’s not water vapour, but hydrogen and oxygen gas) is that when bonds within a molecule are broken, this is called decomposition and it is a CHEMICAL change. Changing states is only a PHYSICAL change.
It is not ionic because water has covalent bonds.
Hydrogen bonds can only occur BETWEEN molecules (intermolecular forces).
Covalent bonds can only occur WITHIN molecules (intramolecular).
