Which two elements make up the compound named butane? What is the ratio of these two hours elements in butane? How would you use chemical symbols to represent butane?

1. Carbon and hydrogen

2. The ratio is C : H => 4 : 10

3. C4H10

Explanation:

1. Butane is made up carbon (C) and hydrogen (H)

2. Butane is the 4th member of the alkane series

The alkanes has generated formula CnH2n+2

Butane is number 4 in the family i.e n = 4

Butane => CnH2n+2

Butane => C4H2x4 +2

Butane => C4H8+2

Butane => C4H10

Therefore, the ratio of carbon and hydrogen in butane is:

C : H => 4 : 10

3. Butane contain carbon and hydrogen in the ratio 4 : 10. Therefore, butane is represented as C4H10

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation

this is not my own answer, this is an answer for the same question by the user blahblahmali. i do not claim ownership of this account.

it’s previous models   because when i picked that son of a gun’s answer it was wrong look for previous models because they might make it a different letter
