Okay so the trick is to find the number of moles of each compound you have:

Carbon: 47.37 g / (12.01 g/mol)  = 3.944

Hydrogen: 10.59/1.008 = 10.55

Oxygen: 42.04/16  = 2.6275

Now divide each my the smallest mole number which is oxygen.

3.944/2.6275 = 1.5

10.55/2.6275 = 4

2.6275/2.6275 = 1

So the integer ratio between C:H:O is 3:8:2.

That means the empirical fomrula of the compound is C3H8O2.

However, for the molecular formula, we have to look at the Molar Mass value given. since C3H8O2 has a molar mass of 12.01*3 + 1.008*8 + 16*2 = 76.094,

we can do 228.276/76.084 = 3. So that means the molecular formula of the compound is C9H24O6

In the reaction CuO(s) + CO2(g) → CuCO3(s), a. CO2 is the Lewis acid and CuCO3 is its conjugate base. b. O2– acts as a Lewis bas
adoni [48]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option d.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to Lewis acid-base concept:

The substance which is donating electron pair is considered as Lewis base and the substance which is accepting electron pair is considered as Lewis acid.

For the given chemical reaction:

CuO(s)+CO_2(g)\rightarrow CuCO_3(s)

CO_2 is accepting electron pair and is getting converted to CO_3^{2-}. Thus, it is considered as Lewis acid.

O^{2-} present in CuO is a Lewis base because it is donating electron pair.

Thus, the correct answer is Option d.

Which of the reactions are spontaneous (favorable)? DHAP − ⇀ ↽ − glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate Δ G = 3.8 kJ / mol DHAP↽−−⇀glycerald
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

In spontaneous reaction , there is decrease in Gibb's free energy .( Δ G is negative ). Out of given reaction , following reactions have negative Δ G so they are spontaneous.

C ₂ H ₄ + H ₂ Rh ( I ) −−−→ C ₂ H ₆ ,  Δ G = − 150.97 kJ / mol

C ₆ H₁₃O₉ P + ATP ⟶ C ₆ H₁₄ O₁₂ P₂ + ADP ,  Δ G = − 14.2 kJ / mol

If the kinetic energy of a particle is equal to twice its rest mass, what is the velocity of the particle? Determine if relativi
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The velocity of the particle is 2 m/s,

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as energy of the body due to its motion. It is given by :

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where :

m = mass of the object

v = velocity of the object

We have , particle with mass m and its kinetic energy is twice its mass.

K.E=2m

2m=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

v^2=\frac{4}{1}

v=2

And unit of velocity are m/s , so the velocity of the particle is 2 m/s.

create a flowchart that outlines when to use dimensional analysis and when to use scientific notation.
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

  see attached

Explanation:

Dimensional analysis is useful whenever dimensions are involved. Unless it is quite clear that all of the problem dimensions are consistent (for example, all speeds in miles per hour, or all angles in degrees), dimensional analysis can be useful for keeping the math straight.

Only units of the same dimensions can be added or subtracted. When numbers are multiplied or divided or raised to a power, dimensional analysis can help ensure that the appropriate operations are being used on appropriate numbers. It can also help ensure that dimensions are being combined properly to give appropriate derived dimensions.

Scientific notation is a way of writing very large or very small numbers compactly. It can also help with "order of magnitude" estimates. If an answer using SI prefixes is appropriate, or if a number can be conveniently expressed in standard form, then scientific notation is usually not required.

On the other hand, SI prefixes may not be appropriate in some cases, or a problem may specify that scientific notation be used for expressing results. In those instances, scientific notation should be used.

The shape of an atomic orbital is associated with
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

The properties of the atomic orbital are actually dependent on the quantum numbers.

size of atomic orbital: governed by the principal quantum number (n)

shape of atomic orbital: governed by the angular momentum quantum number (l)

orientation in space: governed by the magnetic quantum number (ml)

 

Since we are asked about the shape, hence the correct answer is:

angular momentum quantum number (l)
