Answer: See below

Explanation:

n of CO2​ = 0.364mmol

Mass of C = 0.364*12 = 4.368 mg

n of H2​O = 184.37​ = 0.243 mol

The compound has 2*0.243mmol of H

Mass of H = 0.486 mg

Mass of O = 10.68 − (4.368+0.486) = 5.826mg

Moles of O = 0.364

<u>C:H:O Ratios</u>

0.364 : 0.486 : 0.364

= 1 : 1.34 : 1

= 3 : 4 : 3

<u>So the empirical formula is C3​H4​O3​,</u>

Empirical formula mass

= 88= 2 × Molar mass

<u>And the molecular formula is C6​H8​O6</u>

If 36.2g of Acetic Acid (HC2H302) was dissolved in 300. mL of water, what is the
uysha [10]

Answer:

2.01 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the moles of acetic acid (HC₂H₃O₂)

The molar mass of acetic acid is 60.05 g/mol. We will use this data to calculate the moles corresponding to 36.2 g of acetic acid.

36.2g \times \frac{1mol}{60.05g} = 0.603mol

Step 2: Convert the volume of solution to liters

We will use the relation 1000 mL = 1 L. We assume that the volume of solution is that of water (300 mL)

300mL \times \frac{1L}{1000mL} = 0.300L

Step 3: Calculate the molarity of the solution

The molarity is equal to the moles of solute (acetic acid) divided by the liters of solution

M = \frac{0.603mol}{0.300L} = 2.01 M

belka [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

We can calculate the volume  of the oxygen molecule as the radius of oxygen molecule is given as 2×10⁻¹⁰m.

We know that volume=4/3×πr³

volume =4/3×π(2.0×10⁻¹⁰m)³

volume=33.40×10⁻³⁰m³

Volume of oxygen molecule=33.40×10⁻³⁰m³

we know the ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

k=R/Na

R=k×Na

PV=n×k×Na×T

n×Na=N

PV=Nkt

p is pressure of gas

v is volume  of gas

T is temperature of gas

N is numbetr of molecules

Na is avagadros number

k is boltzmann constant =1.38×10⁻²³J/K

R is real gas constant

So to calculate pressure using the  formula;

PV=NkT

P=NkT/V

Since there is only one molecule of oxygen so N=1

P=[1×1.38×10⁻²³J/K×300]/[33.40×10⁻³⁰m³

p=12.39×10⁷Pascal
