The empirical formula of the substance would be  NH_4Cl

<h3>Empirical formula calculation</h3>

The constituents of the compound are as follows:

N = 54/201.6 = 26.78% = 26.78/14 = 1.91 moles

H = 15/201.6 = 7.44% = 7.44/1 = 7.44 moles

Cl = 132.6/201.6 = 65.48% = 65.48/35.5 = 1.84 moles

Divide the number of moles by the smallest"

N = 1.91/1.84 = 1

H = 7.44/1.84 = 4

Cl = 1.84/1.84 = 1

Thus, the empirical formula is NH_4Cl

Was the relationship among temperature,heat,and thermal energy?
marysya [2.9K]
When a substance is hotter it has more energy then a substance that is cooler thermal energy is found in the state for example:gas has more energy in the gas state then the solid state,All molecules contain some amount of kinetic energy, that is to say, they have some intrinsic motion. ... Thus, the heat of an object is the total energy of all the molecular motion inside that object. Temperature, on the other hand, is a measure of the average heat or thermal energy of the molecules in a substance.

One of the few xenon compounds that form is cesium xenon heptafluoride (CsXeF7). How many moles of CsXeF7 can be produced from t
larisa [96]
The balanced chemical equation is written as:

<span>CsF(s) + XeF6(s) ------> CsXeF7(s)

We are given the amount of </span>cesium fluoride and <span>xenon hexafluoride used for the reaction. We need to determine first the limiting reactant to proceed with the calculation. From the equation and the amounts, we can say that the limiting reactant would be cesium fluoride.  We calculate as follows:

11.0 mol CsF ( 1 mol </span>CsXeF7 / 1 mol CsF ) = 11.0 mol <span>CsXeF7</span>

Lorico [155]
The half-reaction are:

Cd ---> Cd(OH)₂
The oxidation number of Cd changed from 0 to +2. So, the number of mol electron transferred here is 2.

NiO(OH) --> Ni(OH)₂
The oxidation number of Cd changed from +3 to +2. So, the number of mol electron transferred here is 1.

Now, the greatest common factor would be 2. So, we use n=2 for the formula for ΔG°. F is Faraday's constant equal to 96,485 J/mol e.

ΔG° = nFE° = (2)(96,485)(1.5) =<em> 289,455 J</em>
