The Cullinan diamond was the largest natural diamond ever found (January 25, 1905). It weighed 3104 carats (1 carat = 200 mg). How many carbon atoms were present in the stone?
Question- Dichloroethane, a compound that is often used for dry cleaning, contains carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine. It has a molar mass of 99g/mol. Analysis of a sample shows that it contains 24.3% carbon and 4.1% hydrogen. What is its molecular formula?
What is the empirical formula of a compound containing 40.0% C, 6.71% H, and 53.28% O?
Determine the number of moles of compound and the number of moles of each type of atom in each of the following:
(a) 25.0 g of propylene, C3H6
(b) 3.06×10−3 g of the amino acid glycine, C2H5NO2
(c) 25 lb of the herbicide Treflan, C13H16N2O4F (1 lb = 454 g)
(d) 0.125 kg of the insecticide Paris Green, Cu4(AsO3)2(CH3CO2)2
(e) 325 mg of aspirin, C6H4(CO2H) (CO2CH3)
Which contains the greatest mass of oxygen: 0.75 mol of ethanol (C2H5OH), 0.60 mol of formic acid (HCO2H), or 1.0 mol of water (H2O)? Explain why.
