You have a few steps to solve this one. First, we'll find the molar mass by percentage of each element in the molecule. Then, we'll divide each of those relative masses by the atomic mass of each element. The number of times the mass divides into the relative mass is the number of atoms of that element in the molecule:
C: 284.5 x .76 = 216.22
H: 284.5 x .128= 36.416
O: 284.5 x .112 = 31.864.
Now we divide out each element's atomic mass (from the periodic table). it's okay if they're approximated from the decimal answer.
C: 216.22 ÷ 12.011 ≈ 18
H: 36.416 ÷ 1.008 ≈36
O: 31.864 ÷ 15.999 ≈ 2
Therefore, the molecular formula is C18H36O2.
The empirical formula would be found by dividing out all factors of those subscript numbers. In our case, all of them can be divided by 2. The empirical formula would be C9H18O
Answer:
Two
Explanation:
The law of conservation of mass states that in an isolated system the mass present is neither destroyed nor created by chemical changes or physical changes.
This tells us that the mass of reactants must be equal to the product mass.
If 1 atom of Zn react with one atoms of sulfur, the product will be 1 molecule of zinc sulfide according to the equation below
Zn(s) + S(s) ⇒ ZnS(s)
therefore two atoms each f zinc and sulfur will product two molecules of Zn sulfide
The wall would absorb extra heat during the day when the sun is out, then release the heat back into the room when the sun goes down.
The heat of combustion for methanol is 727 kj/mol
<em><u>calculation</u></em>
calculate the moles of methanol (CH3OH)
moles = mass/molar mass
molar mass of methanol = 12 +( 1 x3) +16 + 1= 32 g /mol
moles is therefore= 64.0 g / 32 g/mol = 2 moles
Heat of combustion is therefore = 1454 Kj / 2 moles = 727 Kj/mol
<span>Answer:
.01 moles of D to .005 moles of L ~ so, .01+.005 = .015 total; using this total value, divide the portions of D and L.
so .01/.015 to .005/.015 ~ 67% D to 33% L.
And thus, the enantiomer excess will be 34%.</span>
