Combustion Analysis of an unknown hydrocarbon resulted in the capture of 216.00 g of water vapor and 440.00 g of CO2. The total mass of the hydrocarbon before combustion was 144 g.

(1. How many moles of carbon dioxide are present after combustion?)

(2. What is the empirical formula for the unknown hydrocarbon?)

(3. How many water molecules does the water vapor trap capture?)

(4. The gram-formula mass for the unknown hydrocarbon was determined to be 72 g/mol. How many moles of the unknown hydrocarbon were present in the original sample?)

(5. infrared spectral analysis determines that the unknown hydrocarbon does NOT contain oxygen. How many moles of O2 are used in combusting the unknown sample?)

Answers

Answer 1

1: 10 mol CO2

2: C10H24

3: 12 mol H2O

4: 0.5 mol

5: 16 mol O2

Answer 2

The compound is C5H10.

From the information  available in the question;

Number of moles of carbon dioxide = 440.00 g/44 g/mol = 10 moles

Number of moles of water vapor = 216.00 g/18 g/mol = 12 moles

Mass of carbon = 10 moles × 12 g/mol = 120 g of carbon

Moles of hydrogen = 12 moles  × 2 g/mol = 24 g of hydrogen

Number of moles of carbon = 120 g/12 g/mol = 10 moles

Number of moles of hydrogen = 24 g/1 g/mol =24 moles

Divide through by the lowest number of moles =

C - 10/10   H - 24/10

C - 1          H - 2

The empirical formula is CH2

Molar mass of the compound = 72 g/mol

[12 + 2(1)]n = 72

14n = 72

n = 5

The compound is C5H10.

Mg 1s22s22p63s2
Cl 1s22s22p63s23p6

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Ne is a noble gas. It already has an octet of electrons hence, the electron affinity of neon is negative.

Br is a halogen, halogens need one electron to complete their octet. The electron affinity for bromine is negative.

Sodium is a metal that has only one electron in its outermost shell. The electron affinity of sodium is positive.

Magnesium is a metal having two electrons in its outermost shell. The electron affinity of magnesium is positive.

Chlorine is another halogen, energy is released when an electron is added to chlorine hence the electron affinity of chlorine is negative.

Describe the cause and effect relationship between density and ocean currents.

Answers

Answer:

Differences in water density affect vertical ocean currents. Denser water tends to sink, while less dense water tends to rise. Other causes of currents include tides, rain, runoff, and ocean bottom topography. Topography is the surface features of a place. Ocean topography includes slopes, ridges, valleys, and mountains! All these things are found at the bottom of the ocean, and can influence currents.

The cause-and-effect relationship between density and ocean currents is the mixing and circulation are influenced by the density differences between the various layers of the water column.

What are ocean currents?

The continuous, predictable, and directional movement of seawater known as ocean currents is caused by gravity and wind.

Ocean vertical currents are influenced by variations in water density. Less dense water tends to rise, while denser water sinks. Tides, rainfall, runoff, and the topography of the ocean bottom are additional causes of currents.

Thus, the mixing and circulation are influenced by the differences in densities between the various layers of the water column, which is the cause-and-effect relationship between density and ocean currents.

A flask with a volume of 1.50 L, provided with a stopcock, contains ethane gas 1C2H62 at 300 K and atmospheric pressure 11.013 * 105 Pa2. The molar mass of ethane is 30.1 g>mol. The system is warmed to a temperature of 550 K, with the stopcock open to the atmosphere. The stopcock is then closed, and the flask is cooled to its original temperature. (a) What is the final pressure of the ethane in the flask

Answers

Solution :

Apply ideal gas equation, PV=nRT to find the number of moles.

The number of moles of a gas is

[tex]$n=\frac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}$[/tex]

[tex]$n=\frac{(11.013 \times 10^5\ Pa)(1.50 \times 10^{-3}\ m^3)}{(8.134 \ J/Mole.K)(300 \ K)}$[/tex]

n = 0.66 mole

The initial mass of the ethane in the flask is

m = 0.66 mole x 30.1 g/mole

   = 19.866 g

The volume and the number of moles remains constant after the stopcock is closed.

The final pressure of the ethane is

[tex]$p_2=\frac{T_2}{T_1}p_1$[/tex]

    [tex]$=\frac{300}{550} \times 11.013 \times 10^5$[/tex]

  = [tex]$60.0709 \times 10^4 \ Pa$[/tex]

When a system is at equilibrium, the process is not spontaneous at either direction.

Explanation:

The process is not spontaneous at either direction , when a system is at equilibrium  ΔG = 0, because -

We know that a negative ΔG indicates a forward-moving phase that is random.

We already know that a positive ΔG implies a non-spontaneous phase going forward.

Thus , here ΔG = 0, so the process is not spontaneous in either direction.

Arrange the following in order of increasing bond strength of the carbon oxygen bond: Group of answer choices Carbon monoxide < carbon dioxide < carbonate ion Carbonate ion < carbon monoxide < carbon dioxide Carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide < carbonate ion Carbon dioxide < carbonate ion < carbon monoxide carbonate ion < carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide Carbon monoxide < carbonate ion < carbon dioxide Carbonate ion < carbon monoxide < carbon dioxide

Answers

Answer:

carbonate ion < carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide

Explanation:

Bond strength depends on the bond order of a bond. The higher the bond order, the greater the bond strength since shorter bonds are stronger than longer bonds.

The carbonate ion has a bond order of 1.33, carbon dioxide has a bond order of 2 while carbon monoxide has a bond order of 3.

Since the compound with the highest C-O  bond order has the strongest C-O bond, then carbon monoxide possesses the strongest C-O bond.

Answer: carbonate ion < carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide

Explanation: Carbon dioxide (chemical formula CO2) is a chemical compound made up of molecules that each have one carbon atom covalently double bonded to two oxygen atoms. It is found in the gas state at room temperature, and as the source of available carbon in the carbon cycle, atmospheric CO2 is the primary carbon source for life on Earth. In the air, carbon dioxide is transparent to visible light but absorbs infrared radiation, acting as a greenhouse gas. Carbon dioxide is soluble in water and is found in groundwater, lakes, ice caps, and seawater. When carbon dioxide dissolves in water, it forms carbonate and mainly bicarbonate (HCO−3), which causes ocean acidification as atmospheric CO2 levels increase. Bond strength depends on the bond order of a bond. The higher the bond order, the greater the bond strength since shorter bonds are stronger than longer bonds. The carbonate ion has a bond order of 1.33, carbon dioxide has a bond order of 2 while carbon monoxide has a bond order of 3. Since the compound with the highest C-O  bond order has the strongest C-O bond, then carbon monoxide possesses the strongest C-O bond. It is a trace gas in Earth's atmosphere at 421 parts per million (ppm), or about 0.04% by volume (as of May 2022), having risen from pre-industrial levels of 280 ppm. Burning fossil fuels is the primary cause of these increased CO2 concentrations and also the primary cause of climate change.
