- The price of (a) CoCl2•6H2O is $25.00 per 100 g and (b) NH,CI was $11.35 per 500 g. Calculate the costs of each of these reagents used in this preparation. If cost were a determining factor which of these would be used as a limiting reagent?

(a) Determine the empirical formula of benzene and of these three compounds. (b) Suppose you are given a sample of one of the compounds. Could combustion analysis be used to determine unambiguously which of the three it is? (c) Naphthalene, the active ingredient in mothballs, is a white solid. Write a balanced equation for the combustion of naphthalene to CO2(g) and H2O(g). (d) Using the Lewis structure for naphthalene and the average bond enthalpies in Table 8.4, estimate the heat of combustion of naphthalene in kJ/mol. (e) Would you expect naphthalene, anthracene, and tetracene to have multiple resonance structures? If so, draw the additional resonance structures for naphthalene. (f) Benzene, naphthalene, and anthracene are colorless, but tetracene is orange.
