In the combustion process using excess oxygen, each mole of methane results to 1 mole of co2 while ethane produces 2 moles of Co2. Under same conditions, these can be translated to volume. Hence the total volume absorbed is 10 cm3 + 20 cm3 = 30 cm3.
Answer:
2.29 g of N2
Explanation:
We have to start with the <u>chemical reaction</u>:

The next step is to <u>balance the reaction</u>:

We can continue with the <u>mol calculation</u> using the molar mass of
(65 g/mol), so:

Now, with the<u> molar ratio</u> between
and
we can <u>calculate the moles</u> of
(2:3), so:
With the molar mass of
we can <u>calculate the grams</u>:
I hope it helps!
Answer:
Empirical CHO2
Molecular C2H2O4
Explanation:
To determine the formulas, firstly, we need to divide the percentage compositions by the atomic masses.
Kindly note that the atomic mass of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen are 12, 16 and 1 respectively. We proceed with the division as follows:
C = 26.7/12 = 2.225
H = 2.2/1 = 2.2
O = 71.1/16 = 4.44375
We then proceed to divide by the smallest value which is 2.2 in this case
C = 2.25/2.2 = 1
H = 2.2/2.2 = 1
O = 4.44375/2.2 = 2
Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2
We now proceed to get the molecular formula as follows
[12+ 1 + 16(2) ]n = 90.04
45n = 90.04
n = 90.04/45 = 2
The molecular formula is :
C2H2O4
