Answer:

Non-polar solvents cannot dissolve polar compounds since no opposite charges exist and the polar compound is not attracted.

Determine the molecular formula for the compound with a molar mass of 46.08 g/mol and the following percent compostion:
kramer

Answer:

      \large\boxed{\large\boxed{CH_6N_2}}

Explanation:

<u><em>1. First determine the empirical formula.</em></u>

a) Base: 100 g of compound

             mass       atomic mass      number of moles

                g                g/mol                    mol

C           26.06            12.011             26.06/12.011   = 2.17

H           13.13              1.008              13.13/1.008    =  13.03

N           60.81             14.007            60.81/14.007 = 4.34

b) Divide every number of moles by the smallest number: 2.17

mass       number of moles        proportion

C                  2.17/2.17                         1

H               13.03/2.17                         6

N                4.34/2.17                          2

c) Empirical formula

      CH_6N_2

d) Mass of the empirical formula

      1\times 12.011g/mol6+6\times 1.008g/mol+2\times 14.007g/mol=46.07g/mol

<u><em>2. Molecular formula</em></u>

Since the mass of one unit of the empirical formula is equal to the molar mass of the compound, the molecular formula is the same as the empirical formula:

                   CH_6N_2

Which is a polar molecule?
Sloan [31]
A polar molecule is when the arrangement of the atoms in molecules are unequal where one end of the molecule has a positive charge while the other end has a negative charge. Examples of a polar molecule are water, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide. The opposite is called a nonpolar molecule.

stepladder [879]

Answer: The correct answer is crude oil is a mixture of many organic compounds that need to be isolated to be used.

Explanation:

Crude oil is a naturally occurring petroleum product which is unrefined. It consists of various hydrocarbon deposits and organic compounds.

The refining of crude oil is important because it yield some important compounds that can be used in various purposes.

The refining of crude oil produces products such as gasoline, petrol, diesel and various other forms of petrochemicals which can be used on daily basis.

Hence, the correct statement is  crude oil is a mixture of many organic compounds that need to be isolated to be used.
