DEFINITION

Silicon (IV) oxide (silica) is the most stable silicon compound.

It occurs in nature in two states of aggregation - crystalline and amorphous. Crystalline silicon oxide occurs in nature in the form of the mineral quartz, which is a transparent colorless crystals (Fig. 1), in the form of hexagonal prisms with hexagonal pyramids at the ends. Such semi-precious stones as amethyst and topaz are made of quartz.

Silicon oxide (IV) is very hard, insoluble in water and melts at a temperature of the order of 1610 o C turning into a colorless liquid, upon cooling which a transparent glassy mass of amorphous silicon oxide is obtained.

Rice. 1. Silicon oxide (IV). Appearance.

Chemical formula of silicon oxide 4

The chemical formula of silicon oxide (IV) SiO 2. It shows that this molecule contains one silicon atom (Ar = 28 amu) and two oxygen atoms (Ar = 16 amu). The chemical formula can be used to calculate the molecular weight of silica:

Mr (SiO 2) = Ar (Si) + 2 × Ar (O);

Mr (SiO 2) = 28 + 2 × 16 = 28 + 32 = 60.

Graphic (structural) formula of silicon oxide 4

The structural (graphical) formula of silicon oxide (IV) is more illustrative. It shows how atoms are connected to each other inside a molecule:

The structure of the silicon oxide (IV) molecule allows it to form structural links, uniting in chains:

Examples of problem solving

EXAMPLE 1

Exercise When 26.7 g of the amino acid (C x H y O z N k) are burned in an excess of oxygen, 39.6 g of carbon monoxide (IV), 18.9 g of water and 4.2 g of nitrogen are formed. Determine the amino acid formula.
Solution Let's draw up a diagram of the combustion reaction of an amino acid, denoting the number of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen atoms for "x", "y", "z" and "k", respectively:

C x H y O z N k + O z → CO 2 + H 2 O + N 2.

Let us determine the masses of the elements that make up this substance. The values ​​of the relative atomic masses taken from the Periodic Table of D.I. Mendeleev, round up to whole numbers: Ar (C) = 12 amu, Ar (H) = 1 amu, Ar (O) = 16 amu, Ar (N) = 14 amu

m (C) = n (C) x M (C) = n (CO 2) x M (C) = x M (C);

m (H) = n (H) × M (H) = 2 × n (H 2 O) × M (H) = × M (H);

Let's calculate the molar masses of carbon dioxide and water. As you know, the molar mass of a molecule is equal to the sum of the relative atomic masses of the atoms that make up the molecule (M = Mr):

M (CO 2) = Ar (C) + 2 × Ar (O) = 12+ 2 × 16 = 12 + 32 = 44 g / mol;

M (H 2 O) = 2 × Ar (H) + Ar (O) = 2 × 1 + 16 = 2 + 16 = 18 g / mol.

m (C) = x 12 = 10.8 g;

m (H) = 2 × 18.9 / 18 × 1 = 2.1 g.

m (O) = m (C x H y O z N k) - m (C) - m (H) - m (N) = 26.7 - 10.8 - 2.1 - 4.2 = 9, 6 g

Let's define the chemical formula of the amino acid:

x: y: z: k = m (C) / Ar (C): m (H) / Ar (H): m (O) / Ar (O): m (N) / Ar (N);

x: y: z: k = 10.8 / 12: 2.1 / 1: 9.6 / 16: 4.2 / 14;

x: y: z: k = 0.9: 2.1: 0.41: 0.3 = 3: 7: 1.5: 1 = 6: 14: 3: 2.

So the simplest formula of the amino acid is C 6 H 14 O 3 N 2.

Answer C 6 H 14 O 3 N 2

EXAMPLE 2

Exercise Make up the simplest formula of the compound, in which the mass fractions of the elements are approximately equal: carbon - 25.4%, hydrogen - 3.17%, oxygen - 33.86%, chlorine - 37.57%.
Solution The mass fraction of element X in a molecule of composition HX is calculated using the following formula:

ω (X) = n × Ar (X) / M (HX) × 100%.

Let's denote the number of carbon atoms in a molecule by "x", the number of nitrogen atoms of hydrogen by "y", the number of oxygen atoms by "z" and the number of chlorine atoms by "k".

Let us find the corresponding relative atomic masses of the elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and chlorine (the values ​​of the relative atomic masses taken from the Periodic Table of D.I.Mendeleev will be rounded to whole numbers).

Ar (C) = 12; Ar (H) = 14; Ar (O) = 16; Ar (Cl) = 35.5.

We divide the percentage of elements by the corresponding relative atomic masses. Thus, we will find the ratio between the number of atoms in the molecule of the compound:

x: y: z: k = ω (C) / Ar (C): ω (H) / Ar (H): ω (O) / Ar (O): ω (Cl) / Ar (Cl);

x: y: z: k = 25.4 / 12: 3.17 / 1: 33.86 / 16: 37.57 / 35.5;

x: y: z: k = 2.1: 3.17: 2.1: 1.1 = 2: 3: 2: 1.

This means that the simplest formula for a compound of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and chlorine will be C 2 H 3 O 2 Cl.

Answer C 2 H 3 O 2 Cl
