Hatshy [7]

a person running a car parked in a driveway

Explanation:

A person running a car parked in a driveway is an example of translational kinetic energy.

Translational motion is the movement of body along a straight path.

Translational kinetic energy refers to the energy of a body moving along a straight path.

  • It is function of the mass and velocity of the moving body.
  • The motion of train on its track is an example of this form of energy
  • A fired bullet, falling object all experience translational kinetic energy.

A 3.50 g sample of an unknown compound containing only C , H , and O combusts in an oxygen‑rich environment. When the products h
statuscvo [17]

Explanation:

First, calculate the moles of CO_{2} using ideal gas equation as follows.

                PV = nRT

or,          n = \frac{PV}{RT}

                = \frac{1 atm \times 4.41 ml}{0.0821 Latm/mol K \times 293 K}      (as 1 bar = 1 atm (approx))

                = 0.183 mol

As,   Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Hence, mass of water will be as follows.

                Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

             0.998 g/ml = \frac{mass}{3.26 ml}    

                 mass = 3.25 g

Similarly, calculate the moles of water as follows.

        No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                              =  \frac{3.25 g}{18.02 g/mol}            

                              = 0.180 mol

Moles of hydrogen = 0.180 \times 2 = 0.36 mol

Now, mass of carbon will be as follows.

       No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

          0.183 mol =  \frac{mass}{12 g/mol}            

                              = 2.19 g

Therefore, mass of oxygen will be as follows.

              Mass of O = mass of sample - (mass of C + mass of H)

                                = 3.50 g - (2.19 g + 0.36 g)

                                = 0.95 g

Therefore, moles of oxygen will be as follows.

          No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                               =  \frac{0.95 g}{16 g/mol}            

                              = 0.059 mol

Now, diving number of moles of each element of the compound by smallest no. of moles as follows.

                         C              H           O

No. of moles:  0.183        0.36       0.059

On dividing:      3.1           6.1            1

Therefore, empirical formula of the given compound is C_{3}H_{6}O.

Thus, we can conclude that empirical formula of the given compound is C_{3}H_{6}O.

iris [78.8K]
The correct answer from the choices given is the third option. Covalent compounds have low boiling points. Also, their melting points are low. Covalent bonds have relatively low attractions which results to these properties. The bonds are easily broken by taking energy or adding energy.
