Answer:

C2H4 + 3O2---> 2CO2 + 2H2O

Explanation:

The volume of the gas is directly proportional to the no. of moles of the gas at constant temperature and pressure.

So Volume of O2 : Volume of CO2 = 300: 200

= 3:2

So we can add 3 and 2 stoichiometric coefficients to O2 and CO2 respectively.

Then we can see that out of total 3×2 atoms of O, 2×2 atoms of O have been incorporated into CO2. Therefore the remaining 2 O should be in the H2O ( during complete combustion of hydrocarbon we get CO2 and H2O as products)

So we can add 2 in front of H2O..

Then calculate the total no. of C and H atoms in the products side to find the no. of C and H atoms in the hydrocarbon.

C=2

H=4

So the hydrocarbon burnt has the formula C2H4.

Assume the solubility of benzoic acid in ice-cold water is 1.70 g/L and the solubility of benzoic acid in hot water is 68.0 g/L.
lana [24]

Answer:

The volume of water needed to recrystallize 0.700 g of benzoic acid is 10.29 mL.

Explanation:

For the complete recrystalization,

the amount of hot water should be such that, the benzoic acid is completely soluble in it.

As we are given that the solubility of benzoic acid in hot water is 68.0 g/L. Now we have to determine the volume of water is needed to recrystallize 0.700 g of benzoic acid.

we conclude that,

As, 68.0 grams of benzoic acid soluble in 1 L of water.

So, 0.700 grams of benzoic acid soluble in  of water.

The volume of water needed = 0.01029 L = 10.29 mL

conversion used : (1 L = 1000 mL)

Therefore, the volume of water needed to recrystallize 0.700 g of benzoic acid is 10.29 mL.

Calculate the freezing point of a solution containing 5.0 grams of KCl and 550.0 grams of water. The molal-freezing-point-depres
yulyashka [42]

<u>Answer:</u> The freezing point of solution is -0.454°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Depression in freezing point is defined as the difference in the freezing point of pure solution and freezing point of solution.

The equation used to calculate depression in freezing point follows:

\Delta T_f=\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}

To calculate the depression in freezing point, we use the equation:

\Delta T_f=iK_fm

Or,

\text{Freezing point of pure solution}-\text{Freezing point of solution}=i\times K_f\times \frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}

where,

Freezing point of pure solution = 0°C

i = Vant hoff factor = 2

K_f = molal freezing point elevation constant = 1.86°C/m

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (KCl) = 5.0 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (KCl) = 74.55 g/mol

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent (water) = 550.0 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0-\text{Freezing point of solution}=2\times 1.86^oC/m\times \frac{5\times 1000}{74.55g/mol\times 550}\\\\\text{Freezing point of solution}=-0.454^oC

Hence, the freezing point of solution is -0.454°C

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Na(s) + C(s, graphite) + 1/2 H₂(g) + 3/2 O₂(g) → NaHCO₃(s)

Explanation:

The standard formation reaction is the synthesis of 1 mole of a substance from its elements in their most stables forms under standard conditions. The balanced chemical equation is:

Na(s) + C(s, graphite) + 1/2 H₂(g) + 3/2 O₂(g) → NaHCO₃(s)

adoni [48]

Answer: BF3

Explanation: boron needs 4 electron to obtain octet and Fluorine has just one. For the valence shell to be completely filled it will have to form BF4- with 4 fluorine atom surrounding it.
