Answer:

c

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

A. a best guess explanation

Explanation:

A scientific theory explains why something behaves the way it does and is usually backed up by different sources. They are not speculations and can be proven. Those which are speculations and are not proven are called hypothesis. A scientific theory can also be replaced, if it is found that it does not produce valid results, or if a better theory is proposed which is made of one or more old theories.

Un compuesto formado por carbono, hidrógeno y oxígeno tiene una masa de 4,6 g. Se hace reaccionar con 9,6 g de oxígeno dando 8,8 g de CO2 y 5,4 g de agua. Si cogemos 9,2 g de un compuesto en un volumen 5,80l en P= 780 mmHg a una temperatura de 90ºC. Calcula la fórmula empírica y molecular.

Answers

Answer:

La fórmula empírica y molecular es: C₂H₆O.

Explanation:

Para calcular la formula empírica y molecular del compuesto debemos primero plantear la reacción:  

[tex] C_{x}H_{y}O_{z} + O_{2} \rightarrow CO_{2} + H_{2}O [/tex]

Necesitamos encontrar "x", "y" y "z". Para ello, tenemos que recordar que la masa de carbono e hidrógeno producida está relacionada con la cantidad de C y H inicial (del compuesto):

Para el H:

CHO → H₂O

y          5,4g

[tex] \frac{2*1 g}{18 g} = \frac{y}{5,4 g} \rightarrow y = 0,6 g [/tex]

Para C:  

CHO → CO₂

 x         8,8g

[tex] \frac{12 g}{44 g} = \frac{x}{8,8 g} \rightarrow x = 2,4 g [/tex]

Para el O:

[tex] z = 4,6 g - 2,4 g - 0,6 g = 1,6 g [/tex]

Ahora mediante el calculo de los moles del C, H y O podemos encontrar la fórmula empírica:

Para el H:

[tex] n_{y} = \frac{m}{Pm} = \frac{0,6 g}{1 g/mol} = 0,6 moles [/tex]

Para el C:

[tex] n_{x} = \frac{m}{Pm} = \frac{2,4 g}{12 g/mol} = 0,2 moles [/tex]

Para el O:

[tex] n_{z} = \frac{m}{Pm} = \frac{1,6 g}{16 g/mol} = 0,1 moles [/tex]

[tex] C_{\frac{n_{x}}{n_{z}}}H_{\frac{n_{y}}{n_{z}}}O_{\frac{n_{z}}{n_{z}}} = C_{\frac{0,2}{0,1}}H_{\frac{0,6}{0,1}}O_{\frac{0,1}{0,1}} = C_{2}H_{6}O_{1} [/tex]

Entonces, la fórmula empírica del commpuesto formado es C₂H₆O.

Ahora para determinar la fórmula molecular podemos usar la siguiente relación:

[tex] \frac{Pm}{Pm_{e}} = n [/tex]

[tex] F_{m} = n*F_{e} [/tex]

[tex] F_{m} = \frac{Pm}{Pm_{e}}*F_{e} [/tex]    

En donde Fm (fórmula molecular) y Fe (fórmula empírica) están relacionadas por n.

El valor de Pm lo obtenemos de la ecuación del gas ideal:

[tex]PV = nRT = \frac{m}{Pm}RT[/tex]

[tex] Pm = \frac{mRT}{PV} = \frac{9,2 g*0,082 L*atm/(K*mol)*(90 + 273 K)}{1.02 atm*5,80 L} = 46,3 g/mol [/tex]

[tex] F_{m} = \frac{46,3 g/mol}{(2*12 + 6*1 + 16)g/mol}*C_{2}H_{6}O_{1} = 1.00*C_{2}H_{6}O_{1} = C_{2}H_{6}O_{1} [/tex]    

Por lo tanto, la fórmula molecular es la misma que la fórmula empírica, a saber C₂H₆O.

Which of the following compounds below would possess it trigonal planar molecule or geometry?
PHOTO ABOVE

HELP ME IN MY TEST

Answers

Answer:

B - BF3

Explanation:

BF3 has 3 bonds around the central atom and now lone pairs on it. This matches the geometry of a trigonal planar molecule as per the VSEPR Model.

Molecules have two distinct characteristics: form and geometry. Geometry includes the lone pair encircling the focal element whereas shape excludes it. Therefore, the correct option is option B.

What is VSEPR theory?

Valence shell electron repulsive force is what VSEPR stands for. Based on the valence electron pairs that are prevalent around the core element of the molecule, the VSEPR theory is employed to predict the structure and geometry of molecules.

According to VSEPR theory, Lone pair lone pair repulsion is greater than bond pair bond pair repulsion. The core atom of BF[tex]_3[/tex] is surrounded by three bonds and contains no lone pairs. According to the VSEPR Model, this corresponds to the geometry of such a trigonal planar molecule.

Therefore, the correct option is option B.

Which of the following is true about pure substances? A. A pure substance has the same chemical properties throughout. All pure substances are unable to be separated by any means. c. A pure substance can only be made up of one kind of atom. D. A pure substance can always be separated by physical means.​

Answers

Answer:first one

Explanation:

A pure substance has same chemical properties throughout , it cannot be  separated by any means and it is made up of one kind of atom.

What are chemical properties?

These properties are defined as those properties which become evident during or after a chemical reaction after the identity of the substance is changed during chemical reaction.

These properties cannot be determined externally just by viewing the substance ,these change immensely after a substance undergoes a chemical change.These are used for identification of unknown substances and for building up chemical classifications.

The major chemical properties are flammability,toxicity,reactivity,acidity and heat of combustion.For a chemical property to be apparent , it is necessary that the structure of the substance is altered.

Describe how calcium and fluorine bond together to form calcium fluoride. The electron arrangement of each atom is shown.

Answers

Answer:

Detail is given below.

Explanation:

Calcium is alkaline earth metal. It has two valance electron. Thus calcium needs six more electron to complete the octet. Thus, its very easy for calcium to remove its two electron and get complete octet.

Electronic configuration of Ca:

Ca₂₀ = [Ar] 4s²

While,

Fluorine is halogen. It has seven valance electrons. It needed only one electron to complete the octet. When it combine with calcium , calcium loses two electrons thus two atom of fluorine combine with one atom of fluorine and stable compound calcium fluoride is formed.

Electronic configuration of F:

F₉  = [He] 2s² 2p⁵

Answers

Answer:

B. How many of each atom are present in the compound

D. the simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other

Explanation:

In a chemical formula, chemical elements or atoms are represented by a chemical symbol for example Fe for iron and Na for sodium, and the number of each atom is represented by a subscript such as CO2, where 2 is a subscript representing 2 atoms of oxygen.

A subscript represents the number of each atom in the compound and the simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other. The simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other means subscript shows the contribution of both the atoms in the compound, for example: N2 + 3H2 => 2NH3, it means the subscript showing the ratio or proportionate of atoms that is 2:2 for both nitrogen and hydrogen.

The subscript is always written below and to the right of the chemical symbol.

Hence, the correct answer is "B. How many of each atom are present in the compound and D. the simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other"

IUPAC name for BaSO3

Answers

Answer:

Barium Sulfite

Explanation:

Barium Sulfite

The IUPAC name for BaSO₃ is barium sulfite.

"Ba" stands for barium, which is the chemical symbol for the element with atomic number 56. Barium is an alkaline earth metal and belongs to Group 2 of the periodic table.

"SO₃" stands for sulfite, which is a polyatomic ion composed of one sulfur atom (S) and three oxygen atoms (O). The chemical formula for the sulfite ion is SO₃²⁻. The sulfur atom in the sulfite ion has a +4 oxidation state.

When barium (Ba) reacts with the sulfite ion (SO₃²⁻), they combine to form barium sulfite (BaSO₃). The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is:

Ba²⁺ + SO₃²⁻ → BaSO₃

Barium sulfite is an ionic compound, where the Ba²⁺ ion and the SO₃²⁻ ion are held together by electrostatic attractions (ionic bonds). In its solid form, barium sulfite appears as a white crystalline powder.
