Which of the following formulas has the smallest percent carbon by mass?
CF4
CO2
CH4
C204

CF4

Explanation:

Calculate the molar mass of each compound. Divide the molar mass of Carbon by the molar mass of each compound, then multiply the answer by 100 to get the percentage.

CF4= 12+(19X 4)

=12+76= 88 g/mol

%C= 12/88 x 100= 13.64%

CO2= 12+(16 X 2)

12+32= 44 G/MOL

%C= 12/44 x 100= 27.3%

CH4= 12+ (1 X4)

=12+4

=16 G/MOL

%C= 12/16  X 100= 75%

C204

(12X2) + (16X4)

24+64

= 88 g/mol

%C= 24/88 x 100

= 27.3%

< > according to newton's third law of motion, forces always act in equal but opposite pairs. another way of saying this is for every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction.< >

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
