Isopentyl acetate is the molecule largely responsible for the aroma and taste of bananas. It is made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of a 3.256-g sample of isopentyl acetate produces 7.706 g CO2 and 3.156 g H2O. Using these results, what is the correct empirical formula for isopentyl acetate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

7.706 g of CO₂ will contain 12 x 7.706 / 44 g of C

= 2.1 g of C .

This will be contained in 3.256 g of isopentyl acetate

3.156 g of H₂O will contain 2 x 3.156 / 18 g of H

= .351 g of H

This will be contained in 3.256 g of isopentyl acetate

Rest will be oxygen

amount of oxygen in 3.256 g of isopentyl acetate

= 3.256 - ( 2.1 + .351 )

= .805 g

ratio of C , H , O in isopentyl acetate

= 2.1 g : .351 g : .805 g

2.1 / 12 : .351 / 1 : 0.805 / 16 ratio of moles

= .175 : .351 : .05  ratio of moles

= 3.5 : 7.02: 1

= 7 : 14 : 2

empirical formula of  isopentyl acetate

= C₇ H₁₄ O₂ .

What effect does the spinning of the earth's core have?

C. it creates mass
D. it creates the earths magnetic field.

Answers

Answer:

c

Explanation:

its c

Earth contains a spinning electric filed. The spinning of earth core creates its magnetic field. Thus, option D is correct.

What is a spinning body?

A body which rotates in its own axis is called a spinning body. Earth rotates about its along with revolving around sun.  The outer core of earth generates electric current. This is called telluric current.

Flow of this current creates an electric current which is parallels to the surface of earth. The direction of magnetic field lines will be perpendicular to the direction of current. But it comes stronger when parallel to current.

A rotating electric current results in the generation of a magnetic field. Thus spinning of  earth core generates a magnetic field and therefore, option D is correct.

What is the chemical equation?

A chemical equation can be defined as the expression of a chemical reaction in terms of the chemical symbols of the substances. A chemical equation has reactants, formed products, and an arrow indicating the direction of the reaction.

The equation in which the number of atoms of each element is equal on either side of the chemical equation of a reaction is called a balanced chemical equation.

According to the law of mass conservation, the total mass of the elements on the reactant side should be equal to the total mass of elements on the product side.

Given, the chemical equation of the reaction of nitrogen ad oxygen gas can be written as:

2N₂  +  O₂ → 2N₂O

The number of molecules of Nitrogen gas is 2 and the molecules of oxygen gas are one and the molecules of N₂O are equal to 2.

Would you expect manganese(II) oxide, MnO, to react more readily with HF(aq) or NaOH(aq)?

Answers

Answer:

NaOH(aq)

Explanation:

NaOH(aq) is known to precipitate Mn^2+ ions according to the following reaction; Mn^2+(aq)+2OH^−(aq)↽−−⇀Mn(OH)2(s)

Hence, manganese(II) oxide reacts more readily with NaOH(aq) under ordinary conditions precipitating the metal hydroxide solid. This is one of the characteristic reactions of Mn^2+.

Examine the layers of rock. How does layering provide evidence for determining geologic age?

Answers

Well I can’t see the rocks but, to determine the relative age of different rocks, geologists start with the assumption that unless something has happened, in a sequence of sedimentary rock layers, the newer rock layers will be on top of older ones.



Hope this helped! <3

Answer:

the deeper you go down in to the rock the older the fossils get.
