- The principal component of mothballs is naphthalene, a compound with a molecular mass of about 130 amu, containing only carbon and hydrogen. A 3.000-mg sample of naphthalene burns to give 10.3 mg of CO2. Determine its empirical and molecular formulas.arrow_forwardBoron forms an extensive series of compounds with hydrogen, all with the general formula BxHy. To analyze one of these compounds, you burn it in air and isolate the boron in the form of B2O3 and the hydrogen in the form of water. You find that 0.1482 g BxHy gives 0.4221 g B2O3 when burned in excess O2. Determine the empirical I formula of BxHy.arrow_forwardFig. 5-5 illustrates a schematic diagram of a combustion device used to analyze organic compounds. Given that a certain amount of a compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen is combusted in this device, explain how the data relating to the mass of CO2 produced and the mass of H2O produced can be manipulated to determine the empirical formula.arrow_forward
- 4.69 The pictures below show a molecular-scale view of a chemical reaction between H2 and CO to produce methanol, CH3OH. The box on the left represents the reactants at the instant of mixing, and the box on the right shows what is left once the reaction has gone to completion. Was there a limiting reactant in this reaction? If so, what was it? Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. As usual, your equation should use the smallest possible whole number coefficients for all substances.arrow_forwardMethane (CH4) is the main component of marsh gas. Heating methane in the presence of sulfur produces carbon disulfide and hydrogen sulfide as the only products. a. Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction of methane and sulfur. b. Calculate the theoretical yield of carbon disulfide when 120. g of methane is reacted with an equal mass of sulfur.arrow_forwardCalcium carbonate forms carbon dioxide and calcium oxide when it is heated above 900 °C in a limekiln. When heated to 1000 °C in a laboratory, 4.31 g calcium carbonate produces 2.40 g calcium oxide and 1.90 g carbon dioxide. Outline a method similar to combustion analysis by which you could determine the empirical formula for calcium carbonate from these data. Carry out the determination.arrow_forward
- 3.105 Nitric acid is often sold and transported as a concentrated 16 M aqueous solution. How many gallons of such a solution would be needed to contain the roughly 2.1109 pounds of HNO3 produced annually in the United States?arrow_forward4.44 Industrial production of hydrogen gas uses the reaction shown below. If 1.00 metric ton of propane reacting with excess water yields 270 kg of H2, what is the percentage yield? C3H8(g)+3H2O(l)3CO(g)+7H2(g)arrow_forwardYou take 1.00 g of an aspirin tablet (a compound consisting solely of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen), burn it in air, and collect 2.20 g CO2 and 0.400 g H2O. You know that the molar mass of aspirin is between 170 and 190 g/mol. Reacting 1 mole of salicylic acid with I mole of acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) gives you 1 mole of aspirin and 1 mole of acetic acid (C2H4O2). Use this information to determine the molecular formula of salicylic acid.arrow_forward
