What is the empirical formula for C10h22

Answers


The empirical formula is
C5H11


Explanation:
We have decane, the alkane with a chemical formula of
C10H22
.
The empirical formula of a substance has the smallest ratio between the elements its composed of.
Here, we got the carbon to hydrogen ratio as
10:22
. So, we need to find the greatest common factor between the two numbers.

10=2*5

22=2*11

As you can see here, the greatest common factor between the two numbers is
2
, and so we divide both numbers by
2
.
10/2=5

22/2=11


And so, the new formula becomes

C5H11

The sucrose molecule is a large and complex molecule built of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. How many sucrose

molecules are in 0.5 moles of sucrose?

Answers

Answer:

There are 3.01x10²³ molecules of sucrose

Explanation:

In order to calculate the number of molecules of any atom or compound, we need to use the Avogadro number which is 6.02x10²³. This number could represent atoms or molecules of any mole of compound or atom.

In other words, 1 mole of a certain atom or compound has 6.02x10²³ molecules or atoms.

we have 0.5 moles of sucrose, all we just need to do is a simple rule of 3:

If 1 mole contains 6.02x10²³ molecules

then 0.5 moles will contain:

n° molecules = 0.5 * 6.02x10²³ / 1

n° molecules = 3.01x10²³ molecules of sucrose

O B. The sun and a comet are bright and made up entirely of gas.
O C. The sun is at the center of the solar system, and the comet orbits around it.
O D. The sun is very small in size compared to a comet.

Answers

Answer:

c

Explanation:

The sun is at the center of the solar system, and the comet orbits around it.

The sun is at the center of the solar system, and the comet orbits around it. Therefore, option C is correct. Comets are orbiting around sun through the elliptical orbit.

What are comets ?

Comets are tiny spatial objects that are composed of ice, dust and gases. Comets go around the sun in a highly elliptical orbit. They can spend hundreds and thousands of years out in the depths of the solar system before they return to sun at their perihelion.

Like all orbiting bodies, comets follow Kepler's Laws - the closer they are to the Sun, the faster they move. While a comet  is at a great distance from the Sun, its exists as a dirty snowball several kilometers across.

But as it comes closer to the sun, the warming of its surface causes its materials to melt and vaporize producing the comet's characteristic tail. Comet tails can be as long as the distance between the Earth and the Sun. Hence, option  C is correct.

How many moles in 13 grams of C 2 H6 ? show work

Answers

Answer:

0.43mole

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of C₂H₆   = 13g

Unknown:

Number of moles  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we need to first find the molar mass of the given compound.

 Molar mass of C₂H₆ = 2(12) + 6(1)  = 30g/mol

So;

 Number of moles  = [tex]\frac{mass}{molar mass}[/tex]  

Number of moles  = [tex]\frac{13}{30}[/tex]    = 0.43mole

During the naval battles of the South Pacific in World War II, the U.S. Navy produced smoke screens by spraying titanium tetrachloride into the moist air where it reacted according to the equation:
TiCl4 + H2O TiO2 + HCl

a. How many moles of H2O are needed to react with 6.50 moles of TiCl4? (13.0)

b. How many moles of HCl are formed when 8.44 moles of TiCl4 react? (33.8)

Answers

Explanation:

The reaction given is;

TiCl4 + H2O --> TiO2 + HCl

The reaction is not balanced, upon balancing it is given as;

TiCl4 + 2H2O → TiO2 + 4HCl  

a. How many moles of H2O are needed to react with 6.50 moles of TiCl4?

From the reaction;

1 mol of TiCl4 requires 2 mol of H2O

6.50 mol of TiCl4 would require x mol of H2O

1 = 2

6.5 = x

x = 6.5 * 2 / 1 = 13.0 mol

b. How many moles of HCl are formed when 8.44 moles of TiCl4 react?

From the equation of the reaction;

1 mol of TiCl4 reacts to form 4 mol of HCl

8.44 mol of TiCl4 reacts to form x mol of HCl

1 = 4

8.44 = x

x = 8.44 * 4 / 1 = 33.76 mol

Osmium metal, the densest element, has a density of 22.6 g/mL, while hydrogen, the least dense element, has a density of 8.99 e-5 g/mL. Calculate the volume occupied by 1.00 g of each element. How many times more dense is osmium than hydrogen?

Answers

Answer:

1. Volume of osmium = 0.044 mL

2. Volume of Hydrogen = 11123.47 mL

3. Osmium is 251390 times denser than hydrogen

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Density of osmium = 22.6 g/mL

Density of Hydrogen = 8.99×10¯⁵ g/mL

Mass of osmium = 1 g

Mass of Hydrogen = 1 g

1. Determination of the Volume of osmium.

Density of osmium = 22.6 g/mL

Mass of osmium = 1 g

Volume of osmium =?

Density = mass /volume

22.6 = 1 / volume

Cross multiply

22.6 × volume = 1

Divide both side by 22.6

Volume = 1 / 22.6

Volume of osmium = 0.044 mL

2. Determination of the Volume of Hydrogen.

Density of osmium = 8.99×10¯⁵ g/mL

Mass of osmium = 1 g

Volume of osmium =?

Density = mass /volume

8.99×10¯⁵ = 1 / volume

Cross multiply

8.99×10¯⁵ × volume = 1

Divide both side by 8.99×10¯⁵

Volume = 1 / 8.99×10¯⁵

Volume of Hydrogen = 11123.47 mL

3. Determination of the number of times osmium is denser than hydrogen.

Density of osmium (Dₒ) = 22.6 g/mL

Density of Hydrogen (Dₕ) = 8.99×10¯⁵ g/mL

Dₒ / Dₕ = 22.6 / 8.99×10¯⁵

Dₒ / Dₕ = 251390

Cross multiply

Dₒ = 251390 × Dₕ

Thus, osmium is 251390 times denser than hydrogen.

Why do we sometimes use roman numerals in naming ionic compounds?

Answers

Roman numerals are used in naming ionic compounds when the metal cation forms more than one ion. The metals that form more than one ion are the transition metals, although not all of them do this.

We use roman numerals to indicate the oxidation state of metal atoms when naming compounds especially in the case of coordination compounds. It is a standard system of nomenclature.

What is oxidation state?

Oxidation state of a species is the number electrons gained or lost. Oxidation state increases if electrons are lost from the atom and it will be decreased if electrons are gained.

For example, copper is in + 2 oxidation state in CuSO₄, thus it can be indicated as Cu(II). Copper can exists is +3 oxidation too. Thus the representation will be Cu (III).

All the transition metals like copper exhibit various oxidation state. So it is important to indicate in which oxidation state they are in a particular compound. In the compound Fe₂O₃, iron is in + oxidation state whereas in FeSO₄, it can be +2 . Thus it is important to note whether it is Fe (II) or Fe (III).
