Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The formula and molar mass of the hydrocarbon should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The complete combustion of hydrocarbons results in the formation of only carbon dioxide and water.
(b)
Interpretation:
The partial pressures in atmospheres of the reactants should be calculated.
Concept introduction:
Partial pressure is the pressure exerted by an individual gas in a mixture. Dalton’s law of partial pressures states that total pressure of mixture of gasses is equal to the sum of partial pressures of the gases in the mixture.
If partial pressure of gas A is PA, mole fraction is XA and total pressure is PT,
(c)
Interpretation:
The partial pressures in atmospheres of the products and the excess oxygen should be calculated.

I have included what the final outcome needs to look like. #3arrow_forwardPlease explain how to calculate the pH.arrow_forwardI'm having trouble with converting lewis diagrams into VSEPR diagrams. I currently have this example of C2BrCl3 which I want to turn into a lewis structure, but I'm not sure what steps I need to do in order to do so. I have the table written down, however, there's two central atoms so what would I do? There seems to be 4 electron domains on the carbon atom and no lone pairs so it would seem like this shape would be tetrahedral. Here's what I have now. Thanks!arrow_forward
