The answer is CH₃O₆

An empirical formula is the simplest ratio. So, let's simplify the ratio

14 : 42 : 84

All numbers are divisible by 14, therefore:

14 : 42 : 84 = (14/14) : (42/14) : (84:14) = 1 : 3 : 6

So, it contains 1 C-atom, 3 H-atoms, and 6 O-atoms

C:H:O = 14:42:84 = 7:21:42 = 1:3:6

CH₃O₆

Devise a way to separate a mixture of sand, salt, and iron filings. Write the procedure using a step-by-step method and explain

aev [14]

1. Iron fillings are magnetic, so use a magnet to pull the iron fillings out of the mix.
2. Then you can put the salt and sand mixture into water, since salt is soluble, and the salt will dissolve, leaving you with sand.

Calculate a reasonable amount (mass in g) of your unknown acid to use for a titration. You will want about 30 mL of titrant to g

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

"0.60 g" is the appropriate solution.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Volume of base,

= 30 ml

Molarity of base,

= 0.05 m

Molar mass of acid,

= 400 g/mol

As we know,

⇒ $Molarity=\frac{Number \ of \ moles \ of \ base}{Number \ of \ solution}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $0.05=\frac{Number \ of \ moles \ of \ base}{30\times 10^{-3}}$

⇒ $Number \ of \ moles \ of \ base=0.05\times 30\times 10^{-3}$

⇒ $=1.5\times 10^{-3}$

hence,

⇒ $Moles \ of \ acid=\frac{Mass \ of \ acid}{Molar \ mass \ of \ acid}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $1.5\times 10^{-3}=\frac{Mass \ of \ acid}{400}$

⇒ $Mass \ of \ acid=1.5\times 10^{-3}\times 400$

⇒ $=0.60 \ g$
