c. Number of molecules of ethane.
Answers
Answer:
1) atomic mass of Pb = 207 g/mol
atomic mass of N = 14 g/mol
atomic mass of O = 16 g/mol
percentage composition:
Pb = 62.5% , N = 8.5% and O = 29%
Now finding percentage mass ratio,
Pb ⇒ 62.5/207 = 0.3063
N ⇒ 8.5/14 = 0.6071
O ⇒ 29/16 = 1.8125
finding simple ratio of given elements,
Pb : N : O : : 0.3063 : 0.6071 : 1.8125
⇒Pb : N : O : : 0.3 : 0.6 : 1.8
⇒ Pb : N : O : : 1 : 2 : 6
hence, empirical formula of compound is PbN2O6
2)The frequency of the light is 1.25 × 10^15 s^-1
Given:
Wavelength = 7200A°
Light of energy = 3E
Solution:
The energy of the light and the wavelength of light is inversely proportional to each other.
Relationship between wavelength and frequency and wavelength is given below:
frequency = c / lambda
Where,
c = Velocity of light (m/s)
= Wavelength (1/m)
f = 3 × 3 × 10^8 / 7200× 10^-10
f = 1.25 × 10^15 s^-1
3)
1 molecule of ethane contains 2 carbon atoms
so 3 moles of ethane contains 6 mole of carbon atoms.
1 molecule of ethane contains 6 hydrogen atoms
so 3 moles of ethane contains 18 mole of hydrogen atoms.
1 mole of ethane contains 6.023×10²³ molecules of ethane
so 3 mole of ethane contains 3×6.023×10²³ =18.069 ×10²³ molecules of ethane
