An unknown compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen combustion of 7.50 of this compound produced 11.0 of carbon dioxide and 4.50 of water.

1) how many moles of carbon, c, were in the original sample?
an unknown compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen combustion of 7.50 of this compound produced 11.0 of carbon dioxide and 4.50 of water.

1) how many moles of carbon, c, were in the original sample?

n( C)= m(C)/M(C ) = m(CO2)/ M(CO2)=11/44, because m(CO2)=11.0,  M(CO2)=44.01

so n(C )= 0.24moles,

the answer is   c.) 1575 j.

explanation:

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
