Answer:
The empirical formula of the hydrocarbon is C₂H₅
Explanation:
The formula for the hydrocarbon is [tex]C_xH_y[/tex]
The mass of CO₂ produced per 1,000 g of H₂O = 1,955 g
The equation for the chemical reaction is given as follows;
[tex]C_xH_y[/tex] + (x + y/4) O₂ → XCO₂ + y/2H₂O
From the given chemical equation, counting the number of atoms on both sides of the equation, we have;
The molar mass of CO₂ = 44.01 g/mol
The molar mass of H₂O = 18.01528 g/mol
The number of moles of H₂O in 1,000 g of H₂O = 1,000 g/(18.01528 g/mol) = 55.5084351 moles
The number of moles of CO₂ in 1,955 g of H₂O = 1,955 g/(44.01 g/mol) = 44.4217223 moles
Therefore, given that X moles of CO₂ is produced alongside Y/2 moles of H₂O. we have;
X = 44.4217223, Y/2 = 55.5084351
∴ Y = 2 × 55.5084351 = 111.0168702
The ratio of X to Y = X/Y = 44.4217223/111.0168702 = 0.40013488238
∴ The ratio of X to Y = X/Y ≈ 0.4 = 4/10
X/Y ≈ 4/10
The empirical formula is the representation of molecular formula in the smallest whole number ratio of the elements of the molecules
Therefore, when X = 4, Y = 10, from which we have the smallest ratio as;
When X = 2, Y = 5
The empirical formula of the hydrocarbon is therefore, [tex]C_xH_y[/tex] = C₂H₅
The given chemical equation becomes;
C₂H₅ + (2 + 5/4) O₂ → 2CO₂ + 5/2H₂O
C₂H₅ + 3.25 O₂ → 2CO₂ + 2.5 H₂O
We then have;
4C₂H₅ + 13 O₂ → 8CO₂ + 10 H₂O
The empirical formula of the hydrocarbon, [tex]C_xH_y[/tex] = C₂H₅.

Acid rain due to air pollution when water reacts with sulfur dioxide, nitric oxide, and carbon dioxide, causes
Answer:
Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.

Which reaction type is really part of another type of reaction but treated separately? Explain
Answer:
Oxidation - reduction reaction which is called redox reaction.
Explanation:
The type of reaction that is a part of another type but treated separately is called Oxidation - reduction reaction.
Thus is because they usually involve 2 separate half reactions which are oxidation reactions that involve loss of electrons and then reduction equations which involve gain of electrons.
They are treated separately for example when sodium reacts with chlorine to form sodium chloride.
2Na + Cl2 = 2NaCl
Now, sodium undergoes oxidation by loosing elctrons and it's half reaction is;
2Na → 2Na^(+) + 2e^(-)
Meanwhile chlorine undergoes reduction by gaining electrons and its half reaction is;
Cl2 + 2e^(-) → 2Cl^(-)
Calculate the equilibrium constant of the reaction below if the pressures are 1.0atm, 2.0 atm, and 1.0 atm respectively. PCl3 + Cl2 <--> PCl5
Answer:
K = 0.5
Explanation:
Based on the reaction:
PCl₃ + Cl₂ ⇄ PCl₅
The equilibrium constant, K, is defined as:
K = P PCl₅ / P PCl₃ * P Cl₂
Where P represent the pressure at the equilibrium for each one of the gases involved in the equilibrium.
As:
P PCl₅ = 1.0atm
P PCl₃ = 1.0atm
P Cl₂ = 2.0atm
K = 1.0atm / 1.0atm * 2.0atm
K = 0.537.2 moles of hydrogen gas would have what mass?
Your answer
Answer:
74.99g
Explanation:
Mass of a substance can be calculated by using the formula;
mole = mass ÷ molar mass
mass = molar mass × mole
According to this question, 37.2 moles of hydrogen gas is given.
Molar mass of hydrogen gas (H2) = 1.008(2) = 2.016g/mol
mass = 2.016 × 37.2
Mass of H2 = 74.995
Mass = 74.99g

A gas system has an initial number of moles of 0.693 moles with the volume unknown. When the number of moles changes to 0.928 moles volume is found to be 7.98 L. What was the initial volume in mL?
Answer:
The initial volume in mL is 5959.2 mL
Explanation:
As the number of moles of a gas increases, the volume also increases. Hence, number of moles and volumes are directly proportional i.e
n ∝ V
Where n is the number of moles and V is the volume
Then, n = cV
c is the proportionality constant
∴n/V = c
Hence n₁/V₁ = n₂/V₂
Where n₁ is the initial number of moles
V₁ is the initial volume
n₂ is the final number of moles
and V₂ is the final volume.
From the question,
n₁ = 0.693 moles
V₁ = ?
n₂ = 0.928 moles
V₂ = 7.98 L
Putting the values into the equation
n₁/V₁ = n₂/V₂
0.693 / V₁ = 0.928 / 7.98
Cross multiply
∴ 0.928V₁ = 0.693 × 7.98
0.928V₁ = 5.53014
V₁ = 5.53014/0.928
V₁ = 5.9592 L
To convert to mL, multiply by 1000
∴ V₁ = 5.9592 × 1000 mL
V₁ = 5959.2 mL
Hence, the initial volume in mL is 5959.2 mL
