The compound contains Carbon, Hydroxide and Oxide
1 mole of carbon iv oxide contains 44 g, out of which 12 g are carbon.
Therefore, 1.6004 g of CO2 will contain;
    1.6004 ×12/44 = 0.4365 g of carbon
1 mole of water contains 18 g of which 2 g is hydrogen,
Therefore, 0.6551 g of H2O will hace ;
         0.6551 × 2/18 = 0.0728 g of hydrogen.
The total mass of the compound is 0.8009 g,
Thus the mass of oxygen = 0.8009 -(0.4365 +0.0728)
                                         = 0.2916 g
To get the empirical formula we first get the number of moles of each element;\
 Carbon = 0.4365/12= 0.036375 moles
Hydrogen = 0.0728/1 = 0.0728 moles
Oxygen = 0.2916/16 = 0.018225 moles
Then, to get the smallest ratio we divide each with the smallest value;
Carbon :                        Hydrogen :                    Oxygen
= (0.036375/0.018225) : (0.0728/0.018225) : ( 0.018225/0.018225)
= 1.996                         :   3.995                    : 1
≈ 2 : 4 : 1
Therefore, the empirical formula is C2H4O

On the graph, which shows the potential energy curve of two N atoms, carefully sketch a curve that corresponds to the potential
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

We are to carefully sketch a curve that relates to the potential energy of two O atoms versus the distance between their nuclei.

From the diagram, O2 have higher potential energy than the N2 molecule. Because on the periodic table, the atomic size increases from left to right on across the period, thus O2 posses a larger atomic size than N2 atom.

Therefore, the bond length formation between the two O atoms will be larger compared to that of the two N atoms.

The volume of distilled water that should be added to 10.0 mL of 6.00 M HCl(aq) in order to prepare a 0.500 M HCl(aq) solution i
bija089 [108]

Answer:

110ml

Explanation:

<em>Using the dilution equation, C1V1 = C2V2</em>

<em>Where C1 is the initial concentration of solution</em>

<em>C2 is final concentration of solution</em>

<em>V1 is intital volume of solution</em>

<em>V2 is final volume of solution.</em>

From the question , C1=6M, C2=0.5M, V1=10ml, V2=?

V2 =\frac{C1V1}{C2}

V2 =\frac{10*6}{0.5}

V2 =120ml

volume of water added = final volume -initial volume

                                    = 120-10

                                   =110ml

A bottle of concentrated aqueous sulfuric acid, labeled 98.0 wt% h2so4, has a concentration of 18.0 m. (a) how many milliliters
nadya68 [22]
<span>n this order, Ď=1.8gmL, cm=0.5, and mole fraction = 0.9 First, let's start with wt%, which is the symbol for weight percent. 98wt% means that for every 100g of solution, 98g represent sulphuric acid, H2SO4. We know that 1dm3=1L, so H2SO4's molarity is C=nV=18.0moles1.0L=18M In order to determine sulphuric acid solution's density, we need to find its mass; H2SO4's molar mass is 98.0gmol, so 18.0moles1Lâ‹…98.0g1mole=1764g1L Since we've determined that we have 1764g of H2SO4 in 1L, we'll use the wt% to determine the mass of the solution 98.0wt%=98g.H2SO4100.0g.solution=1764gmasssolution→ masssolution=1764gâ‹…100.0g98g=1800g Therefore, 1L of 98wt% H2SO4 solution will have a density of Ď=mV=1800g1.0â‹…103mL=1.8gmL H2SO4's molality, which is defined as the number of moles of solute divided by the mass in kg of the solvent; assuming the solvent is water, this will turn out to be cm=nH2SO4masssolvent=18moles(1800â’1764)â‹…10â’3kg=0.5m Since mole fraction is defined as the number of moles of one substance divided by the total number of moles in the solution, and knowing the water's molar mass is 18gmol, we could determine that 100g.solutionâ‹…98g100gâ‹…1mole98g=1 mole H2SO4 100g.solutionâ‹…(100â’98)g100gâ‹…1mole18g=0.11 moles H2O So, H2SO4's mole fraction is molefractionH2SO4=11+0.11=0.9</span>

Calculate the amount of work done against an atmospheric pressure of 1.00 atm when 500.0 g of zinc dissolves in excess acid at 3
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

19,26 kJ

Explanation:

The work done when a gas expand with a constant atmospheric pressure is:

W = PΔV

Where P is pressure and ΔV is the change in volume of gas.

Assuming the initial volume is 0, the reaction of 500g of Zn with H⁺ (Zn(s) + 2H⁺(aq) → Zn²⁺(aq) + H₂(g)) produce:

500,0g Zn(s)×\frac{1molZn}{65,38g}×\frac{1molH_{2}(g)}{1molZn} = 7,648 moles of H₂

At 1,00atm and 303,15K (30°C), the volume of these moles of gas is:

V = nRT/P

V = 7,648mol×0,082atmL/molK×303,15K / 1,00atm

V = 190,1L

That means that ΔV is:

190,1L - 0L = <em>190,1L</em>

And the work done is:

W = 1atm×190,1L = 190,1atmL.

In joules:

190,1 atmL×\frac{101,325}{1atmL} = <em>19,26 kJ</em>

I hope it helps!
