When 3.915 grams of a hydrocarbon, CxHy, were burned in a combustion analysis apparatus, 12.74 grams of CO2 and 3.913 grams of H2O were produced. In a separate experiment, the molar mass of the compound was found to be 54.09 g/mol. Determine the empirical formula and the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The empirical formula and the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon is [tex]C_2H_3[/tex] and [tex]C_4H_6[/tex] respectivley.

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

[tex]C_xH_y+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O[/tex]

where, 'x', 'y'  are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen

We are given:

Mass of [tex]CO_2[/tex] = 12.74 g

Mass of [tex]H_2O[/tex]= 3.913 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 12.74 g of carbon dioxide, =[tex]\frac{12}{44}\times 12.74=3.474g[/tex] of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 3.913 g of water, =[tex]\frac{2}{18}\times 3.913=0.435g[/tex] of hydrogen will be contained.  

Mass of C = 3.474 g

Mass of H = 0.435 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C =[tex] \frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{3.474g}{12g/mole}=0.289moles[/tex]

Moles of H=[tex]\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{0.435g}{1g/mole}=0.435moles[/tex]

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C =[tex]\frac{0.289}{0.289}=1[/tex]

For H =[tex]\frac{0.435}{0.289}=1.5[/tex]

The ratio of C : H = 1: 1.5

The whole number ratio will be = 2: 3

Hence the empirical formula is [tex]C_2H_3[/tex].

The empirical weight of [tex]C_2H_3[/tex] = 2(12.01)+3(1.008)= 27.04 g.

The molecular weight = 54.09 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

[tex]n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight }}{\text{Equivalent weight}}=\frac{54.09}{27.04}=2[/tex]

The molecular formula will be=[tex]2\times C_2H_3=C_4H_6[/tex]

Using standard heats of formation, calculate the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction.
2H2(g) + O2(g)
—>2H20(9)

Answers

Answer:

ΔH°r = -483.64 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

2 H₂(g) + O₂(g)  ⇒ 2 H₂O(g)

We can calculate the standard enthalpy change of the reaction (ΔH°r) using the following expression.

ΔH°r = ∑ΔH°f(p) × np - ∑ΔH°f(r) × nr

where

ΔH°f: standard heat of formation

n: moles

p: products

r: reactants

ΔH°r = ΔH°f(H₂O(g)) × 2 mol - ΔH°f(H₂(g)) × 2 mol - ΔH°f(O₂(g)) × 1 mol

ΔH°r = (-241.82 kJ/mol) × 2 mol - 0 kJ/mol × 2 mol - 0 kJ/mol × 1 mol

ΔH°r = -483.64 kJ

A mixture of gaseous reactants is put into a cylinder, where a chemical reaction turns them into gaseous products. The cylinder has a piston that moves in or out, as necessary, to keep a constant pressure on the mixture of . The cylinder is also submerged in a large insulated water bath. (See sketch at right.) From previous experiments, this chemical reaction is known to release of energy. The position of the piston is monitored, and it is determined from this data that the system does of work on the piston during the reaction.

Answers

Answer:

It is exothermic in nature.

Explanation:

(1) The reaction is exothermic in nature because it releases heat energy.

(2)  Yes, the temperature of the water go up as the reaction releases heat energy and the temperature cool down as the heat energy is completely removed from the water.

(3)  The piston move in when the pressure in the cylinder decreases and the piston move out when increase of pressure occur.

 (4)  As the outside movement of piston occurs, so we can say that the gas mixture does work on its surroundings.

 (5)   The system released 244 kJ of energy, in which only 150 kJ went into the water, then the difference must be the work done by the system on its surroundings.

 W = (244 - 150) kJ = 94 kJ

Answer:

answer B

It shows the ratio of elements in the compound

Explanation:

Chemical formulas tell you how many atoms of each element are in a compound, and empirical formulas tell you the simplest or most reduced ratio of elements in a compound. If a compound's chemical formula cannot be reduced any more, then the empirical formula is the same as the chemical formula.

The statement which is true about the empirical formula is: It shows the ratio of elements in the compound. The correct option is B.

Empirical formula:

The empirical formula of a compound represents the simplest, most reduced ratio of the elements present in the compound.

The empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms of each element present in a compound.

It is determined by dividing the subscripts of the compound's molecular formula by their greatest common divisor, which simplifies the ratio to its simplest form.

In the given empirical formula CzHs, "z" and "s" represent the subscripts indicating the number of carbon and hydrogen atoms, respectively.

Thus, the correct option is B.

A sample of gas initially has a volume of 2.25 L at 350 K and a pressure of 1.75 atm. What will be sample pressure if the volume is
changed to 1.00 L and the temperature to 750 K
O 3.75 atm
O 1.84 atm
O 3.94 atm
O 8.44 atm
O 0.119 atm

Answers

Answer:

8.44 atm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 2.25 L

Initial temperature (T₁) = 350 K

Initial pressure (P₁) = 1.75 atm

Final volume (V₂) = 1 L

Final temperature (T₂) = 750 K

Final pressure (P₂) =?

The final pressure of the gas can be obtained as illustrated below:

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

1.75 × 2.25 / 350 = P₂ × 1 / 750

3.9375 / 350 = P₂ / 750

Cross multiply

350 × P₂ = 3.9375 × 750

350 × P₂ = 2953.125

Divide both side by 350

P₂ = 2953.125 / 350

P₂ = 8.44 atm

Thus, the final pressure of the gas is 8.44 atm.

The two processes  which contributed oxygen to earth’s second atmosphere are photosynthesis and photolysis.

What is photosynthesis?

It is defined as a process by which plants and other photosynthetic organisms convert the light energy in to chemical energy  through the process of cellular respiration.

Some of the energy which is converted  is stored in molecules of carbohydrates like sugar and starches  which are made up of from carbon dioxide and water . Photosynthetic organisms which can perform photosynthesis  are algae and cyanobacteria. Photosynthesis is largely responsible for producing and maintaining the content of oxygen in earth's atmosphere.

The process begins with proteins absorbing light energy  which are called reaction centers and contain a green pigment which is called chlorophyll . In plants ,these pigments are present inside organelles called chloroplasts while in bacteria they are present in plasma membrane.

What is Le Châtelier's principle?

A system in equilibrium is subjected to change (change in concentration/pressure of reactants/products, temperature, etc.) according to Le Châtelier's principle.

To counterbalance the change and restore equilibrium, the System advances in a direction.

In solution, HNO is a strong acid that will dissociate fully to generate H+ and No3-.

This increasing concentration of H+ will cause the second equilibrium reaction in question to reverse direction, resulting in the production of additional HF.

As a result of the drop in F- concentration, the dissolution equilibrium process of Caf2 moves forward, dissolving more valid CaF2 to produce Ca2+ and F_ and thereby boosting Caf2 solubility.

Why are weather front boundaries turbulent?

Answers

Answer:

Answer Below Hope Its Correct.

Explanation:

A weather front is a transition zone between two different air masses at the Earth's surface. Each air mass has unique temperature and humidity characteristics. Often there is turbulence at a front, which is the borderline where two different air masses come together. The turbulence can cause clouds and storms.

Instead of causing clouds and storms, some fronts just cause a change in temperature. However, some storm fronts start Earth's largest storms. Tropical waves are fronts that develop in the tropical Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Africa. These fronts can develop into tropical storms or hurricanes if conditions allow.

Fronts move across the Earth's surface over multiple days. The direction of movement is often guided by high winds, such as Jet Streams.  Landforms like mountains can also change the path of a front.

There are four different types of weather fronts: cold fronts, warm fronts, stationary fronts, and occluded fronts.
