What is the molecular formula of the compound with a molecular weight of 112 g/mol and percent composition: 85.6% C and 14.4% H?
Select one:
a. C2H4
b. CH2
c. C4H8
d. C8H16

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Molecular formula = C₈H₁₆

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of hydrogen = 14.4%

Percentage of carbon = 85.6%

Molecular formula = ?

Molecular weight = 112 g/mol

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of H = 14.4/ 1.01 = 14.26

Number of gram atoms of C = 85.6/ 12 = 7.13

Atomic ratio:

            C                      :              H        

           7.13/7.13            :           14.26/7.13    

            1                      :                 2          

C : H = 1 : 2

Empirical formula is CH₂

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

n = 112 / 14

n = 8

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 8 (CH₂)

Molecular formula = C₈H₁₆

During a chemical or physical change, energy may be...

a. created into another form
b. destroyed and reinvented into another form
c. converted into another form
d. disappeared​

Answers

Answer: C: Converted into another form

Explanation: pues es esa calale y si va a hacer

During a chemical or physical change, energy is converted to another form. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. During a chemical reaction, physical change the energy and mass are conserved.

What is law of conservation of energy ?

According to the law of conservation of energy energy can neither be crated nor be destroyed. Hence, the total energy of a system is always conserved.

However, energy can be transformed from one form to the other. Therefore, the energy lost in one form is gained in another form. For example, in all electrical devices, the electrical energy is converting to other forms of energy such as light, thermal , mechanical etc.

Similarly, during a chemical reaction, the energy released by a reaction system is equal to the energy absorbed by other reacting system. Similarly in electrochemical cells the chemical energy is converting to electrical energy.

A scientist thinks he found a new metal, so he published a paper about this metal. About 1 week after the scientist published the paper, you noticed a problem with the paper the scientist wrote. You noticed that this metal was not a new metal. In fact, this metal was discovered years ago. You determined this when you saw the atomic emission spectrum. As you read the article, you remembered that each atomic emission spectrum is unique to each element and the atomic emission spectrum matched one that was already discovered. Using the techniques from Chemistry, you ran a Flame Test with a piece of the metal (the metal is safe to use) that you had shipped to you. You found the metal turned the flame yellow. What metal did you have in your possession?

What is the molecular formula of the molecule that has an empirical formula of CH2O and a molar mass of 120.12 g/mol

Answers

Answer:

C4H8O4

Explanation:

Let (CH20)x

C=1*12.01=12.01     (12.01, 1.01, 16.00 Avg mass of elements)

H=2*1.01=2.01

O=1*16.00=16.00

12.01 + 2.01 + 16.00 = 30.03

120.12/30,03=4

==> (CH2O)4 = C4H8O4

The molecular formula of the molecule that has an empirical formula of [tex]CH_2O[/tex] is equal to [tex]C_4H_8O_4[/tex].

Given the following data:

Empirical formula = [tex]CH_2O[/tex]Molar mass = 120.12 g/mol.

Scientific data:

Molar mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol.Molar mass of hydrogen = 1 g/mol.Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol.

To determine the molecular formula of the molecule that has an empirical formula of [tex]CH_2O[/tex]:

First of all, we would find the molar mass of [tex]CH_2O[/tex]:

[tex]CH_2O =12 +(1\times2)+16\\\\CH_2O =30\;g/mol[/tex]

For molecular formula:

[tex](CH_2O)n = 120.12\\\\30n = 120.12\\\\n=\frac{120.12}{30}[/tex]

n = 4.0

[tex](CH_2O)_4 = C_4H_8O_4[/tex]

Which of the following best describes the velocity of an object?
A B0 m/s
B 30 m east
C 30 m/s east
D 30 m/s2

Answers

The answer is c
30 m/s east

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \ 30 \ m/s \ east}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Velocity is the vector measurement of the change in position over time. A vector measurement means the answer must include a magnitude (numerical value) and a direction.

Here are some units of velocity:

m/s (meters per second) kph (kilometers per hour) km/s (kilometers per second)

There are many other units, but m/s is the most common.

We can eliminate choice B and D, because the units (meters-m and meters per second squared-m/s²) are not for velocity.

We are left with choice A (30 m/s) and C (30 m/s east). Remember, velocity needs a number and a direction. C contains the direction east, so it must be the correct answer.
