There are five hydrocarbon compounds (compounds of C and II) that have the formula C6H14. (These are isomers; they differ in the way that C and H atoms are attached. Chapter 23) All are liquids at room temperature but have slightly different densities. (a) You have a pure sample of one of these hydrocarbons, and to identify it you decide to measure its density. You determine that a 5.0-mL sample (measured in a graduated cylinder) has a mass of 3.2745 g (measured on an analytical balance). Assume that the accuracy of the values for mass and volume is plus or minus one ( 1) in the last significant figure. What is the density of the liquid? (b) Can you identify the unknown hydrocarbon based on your experiment? (c) Can you eliminate any of the five possibilities based on the data? If so, which one(s)? (d) You need a more accurate volume measurement to solve this problem, and you redetermine the volume to be 4.93 mL Based on this new informationwhat is the unknown compound?

I am having a bit of trouble with significant figures and rounding. In a question such as the one below, would the sig fig I put in my answer be correct? How many moles are present in 3.44 g CoCl2 ꞏ 6H2O? = (Which sig fig amount is correct-->) .0217 moles or .021 moles The whole answer was 0.02177904, would I round this answer to the 3rd sig fig? So, is the correct answer actually .022?
A chemical plant uses electrical energy to decompose aqueous solutions of NaCl to give Cl2, H2, and NaOH: 2NaCl(aq)+2H2O(l)→2NaOH(aq)+H2(g)+Cl2(g) part A: If the plant produces 1.7×106 kg (1700 metric tons) of Cl2 daily, estimate the quantities of H2 produced. Express your answer using two significant figures. part B: If the plant produces 1.7×106 kg (1700 metric tons) of Cl2 daily, estimate the quantities of NaOH produced.

Suppose you are hired by the Environmental Protection Agency as an engineer to measure sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions in a small industrial power plant. And suppose you analyze a gas sample and get the following composition: 75.66% N2, 10.24% CO2, 8.27% H2O, 5.75% O2, and 0.0825% SO2. You show these figures to the factory clerk the next day, and he insists that this analysis is erroneous and states that the fuel is natural gas, contains methane and ethane and does not contain sulfur. You ask if another fuel is used, and sometimes they say they use fuel as fuel, but at the time of analysis they say that this fuel is not used. However, your measurements show that the enterprise is using fuel at the time of measurement, and the responsible person accepts this later and accepts that they have made mistakes.a) Calculate the molar ratio of carbon / hydrogen in the fuel and use the result to prove that the fuel cannot be natural gas.b) Assuming that C, H and S are the elements present in the…

0.848g of Na2B4O7.10H2O into a crucible. After hearing the sample for a short time and allowing the crucible to cool, the two students determine that the sample has a mass of 0.525g. They then do a quick calculation. based on this calculation, what should they do next?
It was important that no water gets on the aluminum foil during the heating process. If water does get on the aluminum foil, it must be wiped off before reweighing your flask. A typical drop of water has an approximate volume of 0.05 mL and water has a density of 1.0 g/mL. Calculate the molecular weight of your unknown (using your data from the experiment) if 2 drops of water accidently remained on the aluminum foil when you reweighed your flask.
