Problem №1.
Let's write down the equation of chemical reaction (unbalanced)
and balance it (first, balance hydrogen, then nitrogen and at the last oxygen)
Let's calculate the molar mass of molecular oxygen and nitrogen monoxide (atomic weights can be found in the periodic table)
"{M_{NO}} = {M_N} + {M_O} = 16[\\frac{{\\text{g}}}{{{\\text{mol}}}}] + 14.01[\\frac{{\\text{g}}}{{{\\text{mol}}}}] = 30.01[\\frac{{\\text{g}}}{{{\\text{mol}}}}]"
Now we can see from the equation, that for each "1" mole of oxygen we can theoretically get "0.8" moles of nitrogen monooxide (because "\\frac{4}{5} = 0.8"), thus
"{\\nu _{NO}} = \\frac{4}{5}{\\nu _{{O_2}}}"and using "\\nu = \\frac{m}{M}" we get
The percent yeld is
Answer: "{m_{NO}} \\approx 4.81[{\\text{g}}]" , "\\eta \\approx 77.96[\\% ]"
Problem №2.
Let's write down the equation of chemical reaction (unbalanced)
and balance it
Let's calculate molar masses
We can see from the equation of chemical reaction that for each 1 mole of "{C_x}{H_y}" we get "x" moles of "C{O_2}" and "\\frac{y}{2}" moles of "{H_2}O" . So we've got the following system
"\\begin{cases} {\\nu _{C{O_2}}} = x{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}} \\\\ {\\nu _{{H_2}O}} = \\frac{y}{2}{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}} \\end{cases}"
and using "m = \\nu M" we get
Simplify it
we see that the left sides is approximately equal, it means that
thus
We find the empirical formula, it is "C{H_2}". Now we need to find the chemical formula, that has the form "{C_x}{H_{2x}}".
Use the known molar mass of the compound
thus
and the chemical formula is "{C_3}{H_6}"
Answer: empirical formula is "C{H_2}" , chemical formula is "{C_3}{H_6}"
Problem №3.
We shall use the same way as in the problem 2, so we omitt some details
Let's write down the balanced chemical reaction
Molar masses of reagents and products are
We've got the system the same system as in previous problem
"\\begin{cases} {\\nu _{C{O_2}}} = x{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}} \\\\ {\\nu _{{H_2}O}} = \\frac{y}{2}{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}} \\end{cases}"
"\\begin{cases} \\frac{{19.43[{\\text{g}}]}}{{44.01[\\frac{{\\text{g}}}{{{\\text{mol}}}}]}} = x{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}} \\\\ \\frac{{7.954[{\\text{g}}]}}{{18.02[\\frac{{\\text{g}}}{{{\\text{mol}}}}]}} = \\frac{y}{2}{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}} \\end{cases}"
"\\begin{cases} 0.441[{\\text{mol}}] =x{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}} \\\\ 0.441[{\\text{mol}}] = \\frac{y}{2}{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}} \\end{cases}"
so again, "x{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}} \\approx \\frac{y}{2}{\\nu _{{C_x}{H_y}}}" and "y=2x". Now let's use the known molar mass of the compound
Let's assume (without lose generality) that "z = kx" , where "k" is positive integer number. We get
Easy to see that "k" can't be more than 3 (because in this case "x < 1" ) so we just need to choose between 3 cases "k = 1,2,3". We can exclude cases "k = 2" and "k = 3" because they get us (with the one possible "x = 1" ) molar masses "46.03[\\frac{{\\text{g}}}{{{\\text{mol}}}}]" and "62.03[\\frac{{\\text{g}}}{{{\\text{mol}}}}]" respectively, so the only variant is "k = 1" and the empirical formula is "C{H_2}O" . To get chemical formula we need to calculate x
and we get "x \\approx 2" , so chemical formula is "{C_2}{H_4}{O_2}".
Answer: empirical formula is "C{H_2}O" and chemical formula is "{C_2}{H_4}{O_2}".
