The chemical formula for the compound can be written as,
CxHyOz
where x is the number of C atoms, y is the number of H atoms, and z is the number of O atoms. The combustion reaction for this compound is,
CxHyOz + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
number of moles of C:
(0.7191 g)(1 mol CO2/44 g of CO2) = 0.0163 mol CO2
This signifies that 0.0163 mole of C and the mass of carbon in the compound,
(0.0163 mols C)(12 g C/ 1 mol C) = 0.196 g C
number of moles H:
(0.1472 g H2O)(1 mol H2O/18 g H2O) = 0.00818 mol H2O
This signifies that there are 0.01635 atoms of H in the compound.
mass of H in the compound = (0.01635 mols H)(1 g of H) = 0.01635 g H
Mass of oxygen in the compound,
0.3870 - (0.196 g C + 0.01635 g H) = 0.1746 g
Moles O in the compound = (0.1746 g O)(1 mol O/16 g O) = 0.0109 mols O
The formula of the compound is,
C0.0163H0.01635O0.0109
Dividing the numbers by the least number,
C3/2H3/2O
The empirical formula of the compound is therefore,
<em> C₃H₃O₂</em>
Answer:

Explanation:
Given , molarity of glycerol= 
Volume= 1 L.
Therefore, No of moles of glycerol= 
Now, volume of water needed, V=998.8 mL.
Density is given as= 0.9982 g/mL.
Therefore, mass of water = 
Now, molality=
Hence, this is the required solution.
<span>This is due to the fact that the air pressure in that certain section of Earth’s atmosphere decreased. As density of gas particles decreases as air pressure decreases. Therefore, density of gas particles and air pressure have a direct relationship. An increase in air pressure would then effect to an increase in gas particles. </span>
Answer:
Temperature affects Seismic Wave speed.
Explanation:
Both temperature and pressure affect the speed of Seismic waves. The Speed of Seismic waves increases uniformly as pressure increases, meaning that as depth increases, pressure also increases which causes Seismic Wave speeds to increase as well. This can be calculated and the data can be gathered. Temperature on the other hand decreases the speed of Seismic Waves, therefore we can calculate the difference of speed between what the Seismic Wave should be at a certain pressure with the actual speed gathered. This difference in speed will allow us to determine the actual temperature at that level.
Answer:
0.12 mol KCl
Explanation:
2 KClO3 (s) 2 KCl (s) + 3 O2 (g)
15 g x mol
x g KCl = 15 g KClO3 x[ (1 mol KClO3)/ (122.5 g KClO3) ] x [(2 mol KCl)/ (2 mol KClO3)]
x g KCl = 0.12 mol KCl
