Answer:
Empirical formula is CaSO₄.
Explanation:
Given data:
Percentage of calcium =29.44%
Percentage of sulfur = 23.55%
Percentage of oxygen = 47.01%
Empirical formula = ?
Solution:
Number of gram atoms of Ca = 29.44 / 40 = 0.74
Number of gram atoms of S = 23.55 / 32 = 0.74
Number of gram atoms of O = 47.01 / 16 = 3
Atomic ratio:
Ca : S : O
0.74/0.74 : 0.74/0.74 : 3/0.74
1 : 1 : 4
Ca : S : O = 1 : 1 : 4
Empirical formula is CaSO₄.

Eggshells are made primarily of calcium carbonate. The acid in vinegar softens the calcium of the eggshell. Adding a little vinegar to the water when boiling eggs is an old cook’s trick that makes them easier to peel.

Answer:
ΔH = -470.4kJ
Explanation:
It is possible to sum 2 or more reactions to obtain the ΔH of the reaction you want to study (Hess's law). Using the reactions:
1. CaC2(s) + 2H2O(l) → C2H2(g) + Ca(OH)2(s)ΔH = −414kJ
2. 6C2H2(g) + 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g) → 5CH2CHCO2H(g)ΔH = 132kJ
6 times the reaction 1.
6CaC2(s) + 12H2O(l) → 6C2H2(g) + 6Ca(OH)2(s)ΔH = −414kJ*6 = -2484kJ
This reaction + 2:
6CaC2(s) + 3CO2(g) + 16H2O(l) → + 6Ca(OH)2(s) + 5CH2CHCO2H(g) ΔH = -2484kJ + 132kJ = -2352kJ
As we want to calculate the net change enthalpy in the formation of just 1 mole of acrylic acid we need to divide this last reaction in 5:
6/5CaC2(s) + 3/5CO2(g) + 16/5H2O(l) → + 6/5Ca(OH)2(s) + CH2CHCO2H(g) ΔH = -2352kJ / 5
<h3>ΔH = -470.4kJ</h3>
