Textbook Question

Chapter 1, Problem 58RGQ

There are five hydrocarbon compounds (compounds of C and II) that have the formula C₆H₁₄. (These are isomers; they differ in the way that C and H atoms are attached. Chapter 23) All are liquids at room temperature but have slightly different densities.

Chapter 1, Problem 58RGQ, There are five hydrocarbon compounds (compounds of C and II) that have the formula C6H14. (These are

(a) You have a pure sample of one of these hydrocarbons, and to identify it you decide to measure its density. You determine that a 5.0-mL sample (measured in a graduated cylinder) has a mass of 3.2745 g (measured on an analytical balance). Assume that the accuracy of the values for mass and volume is plus or minus one (± 1) in the last significant figure. What is the density of the liquid?

(b) Can you identify the unknown hydrocarbon based on your experiment?

(d) You need a more accurate volume measurement to solve this problem, and you redetermine the volume to be 4.93 mL Based on this new informationwhat is the unknown compound?
