A compound contains 10.13% C and 89.87% Cl (by mass). Determine both the empirical formula and the molecular formula of the comp
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The empirical formula is = CCl_3

The molecular formula = C_2Cl_6

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

% of C = 10.13

Molar mass of C = 12.0107 g/mol

% moles of C = 10.13 / 12.0107 = 0.8434

% of Cl = 89.87

Molar mass of Cl = 35.453 g/mol

% moles of Cl = 89.87 / 35.453 = 2.5349

Taking the simplest ratio for C and Cl as:

0.8434 : 2.5349

= 1 : 3

The empirical formula is = CCl_3

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 12*1 + 3*35.5 = 118.5 g/mol

Molar mass = 237 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

237 = n × 118.5

⇒ n ≅ 2

The molecular formula = C_2Cl_6

A gas is initially at a pressure of 0.43 atm, and a volume of 11.7 liters. Then the pressure is raised to 3.61 atm and the volum
lukranit [14]

Answer:

D. 91.98K

Explanation:

The General Gas Law equation is given by,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}  =  \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

From the question,

the initial pressure,

P_1 = 0.43 \: atm

the initial volume,

V_1 = 11.7 \: litres

the final temperature,

T_2=627K

the final pressure,

P_2=3.61atm

the final volume,

V_2=9.5litres

Making

T_1

the subject of the expression, we obtain

T_1= \frac{P_1V_1T_2}{P_2V_2}

By substitution,

T_1= \frac{0.43 \times11.7 \times627}{3.61 \times9.5}

T_1=91.980K

Hence the initial temperature was 91.98 K

Octane (C8H18) is a component of gasoline. Complete combustion of octane yields H2O and CO2. Incomplete combustion produces H2O
mestny [16]

86.5\; \% of octane had been converted to carbon dioxide CO₂.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Octane has a molar mass of

12.01 \times 8 + 1.008 \times 18 = 114.22 \; \text{g} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1}

1.000 gallon of this fuel would have a mass of 2.650 kilograms or 2.65 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g}, which corresponds to 2.65 \times 10^{3} / 114.22 = 23.2\; \text{mol} of octane.

Octane undergoes complete combustion to produce carbon dioxide and water by the following equation:

2\; \text{C}_8\text{H}_{18} + 25 \; \text{O}_2 \to 16 \; \text{CO}_2 + 18 \; \text{H}_2\text{O}

An incomplete combustion of octane that gives rise to carbon monoxide and water but no carbon dioxide would consume not as much oxygen:

2\; \text{C}_8\text{H}_{18} + 17 \; \text{O}_2 \to 16 \; \text{CO} + 18 \; \text{H}_2\text{O}

The mass of the product mixture is 11.53 - 2.65 = 8.88 \; \text{kg} heavier than that of the octane supplied. Thus 8.88 \; \text{kg} = 8.88 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g} of oxygen were consumed in the combustion. There are 277.5 \; \text{mol} of oxygen molecules in 8.88 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g} of oxygen.

Let the number of moles of octane that had undergone complete combustion as seen in the first equation be x (0 \le x \le 23.2). The number of moles of octane that had undergone incomplete combustion through the second equation would thus equal 23.2 - x.

25 moles of oxygen gas is consumed for every two moles of octane that had undergone complete combustion and 17 moles if the combustion is incomplete.

n(\text{O}_2, \; \text{Complete Combustion}) + n(\text{O}_2, \; \text{Incomplete Combustion} ) = n(\text{O}_2, \; \text{Consumed})\\

\frac{25}{2} \; x + \frac{17}{2} \; (23.2 - x) = 277.5\\4 \; x = 277.5 - \frac{17}{2} \times 23.2\\x = 20.1

Therefore 20.1 \; \text{mol} out of the 23.2 moles of octane had undergone complete combustion to produce carbon dioxide.

\%n(\text{Complete Combustion}) = 20.1 / 23.2 \times 100 \; \%= 86.5\; \%
