CxHy + O2 --> x CO2 + y/2 H2O
Find the moles of CO2 : 18.9g / 44 g/mol = .430 mol CO2 = .430 mol of C in compound
Find the moles of H2O: 5.79g / 18 g/mol = .322 mol H2O = .166 mol of H in compound
Find the mass of C and H in the compound:
.430mol x 12 = 5.16 g C
.166mol x 1g = .166g H
When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.
Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).
In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).
Answer:
The formula of the compound is:
N2H2
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question:
Nitrogen (N) = 93.28%
Hydrogen (H) = 6.72%
Next, we shall determine the empirical formula for the unknown compound. This is illustrated below:
N = 93.28%
H = 6.72%
Divide by their molar mass
N = 93.28 /14 = 6.663
H = 6.72 /1 = 6.7
Divide by the smallest
N = 6.663 / 6.663 = 1
H = 6.72 /6.663 = 1
Therefore, the empirical formula is NH.
Now, we can obtain the formula of the compound as follow:
The formula of a compound is simply a multiple of the empirical formula.
[NH]n = 30.04
[14 + 1]n = 30.04
15n = 30.04
Divide both side by 15
n = 30.04/15
n = 2
Therefore, the formula of the compound is:
[NH]n => [NH]2 => N2H2
Answer: single covalent bond
Explanation: Chlorine is a simple molecule. each chlorine atom can count 8 electrons in its outer shell. with other chlorine atoms. One pair of shared electrons form a single covalent bond.
No, if something is wet then it has water on it that can be removed, you cannot take water off of itself.
