The empirical formula for a compound that contains 48.6%C, 8.2% H, and 43.2% S by mass is C_3H_6S.

<h3>What is the empirical formula?</h3>

An empirical formula tells us the relative ratios of different atoms in a compound.

We need to calculate the number of moles

Number of a mole of carbon =

48.6 g X (\frac{1 mole }{ 12.0107 g}) =4.05 mole

Number of a mole of hydrogen =

8.2g X (\frac{1 mole}{.00784g}) =8.14 mole

Number of moles of sulphur =

43.2g X (\frac{ mole}{32.065g}) = 1.35 mole

Dividing each mole using the smallest number that is divided by 1.35 moles.

Carbon= \frac{4.05 mole }{1.35 mole} =3

Oxygen= \frac{8.14 mole}{1.35 mole} =6

Sulfur= \frac{1.35 mole}{1.35 mole} =1

Empirical formula is C_3H_6S

(vi) A solvent extraction in which two ...... liquids move in opposite directions in
ad-work [718]

Answer:

(A). Immmiscible

Liquid/Liquid extraction is a solvent extraction in which two immiscible liquids move in opposite directions are in continuous contact with each other.

Explanation:

A liquid/liquid extraction is a method used to separate mixtures based on relative solubilities in two immiscible liquids, i.e., liquids that do not dissolve in each other but rather form separate layers when placed in the same glassware.

The immiscibility of the liquids is as a result of the two liquids having different polarities. One liquid is polar while the other is non polar, usually water which is polar and an organic solvent which is non-polar. The most common pair of extraction solvents used is diethyl ether or simply ether and water. They separate into layers and the position most each solvent in either the bottom or top layer is determined by its density. Ether is always found on the top layer while water is found innthe bottom layer because ether is less than than water. The density of ether is 0.713 g/cm3 and the density of H2O is 1.0 g/cm3.

The compound to be extracted dissolves into either of the layers based on the principle that like dissolves like. Polar compounds will dissolve into the water layer while organic nor non-polar compounds will dissolve in the ether layer. The compound is the extracted from either of the layer it is dissolved in.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The discovery of early helium supports the Big Bang Theory because helium is something that would have been a product of a large explosion. Helium is also the most proliferate element in the universe.

The reaction below is at dynamic equilibrium. Upper N subscript 2 (g) plus 3 upper H subscript 2 (g) double-headed arrow 2 upper
Len [333]

For the reaction below at dynamic equilibrium, it is true that the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.

Let's consider the following reaction at equilibrium.

N₂(g) + 3 H₂(g) = 2 NH₃(g)

<h3>What is the chemical equilibrium?</h3>

Is a state in which the concentrations of reactants and products are constant and the forward reaction rate and constant reaction rate are equal.

<h3>What is the equilibrium constant?</h3>

The equilibrium constant (K) is the ratio of the concentrations of the products to the concentrations of the reactants, all raised to their stoichiometric coefficients.

Let's consider which statement is true for the equilibrium system.

  • The concentration of NH₃ is greater than the concentration of N₂. FALSE. There is not enough information to confirm this, we would need to know the value of K.
  • The concentration of NH₃ equals the concentration of N₂. FALSE. There is not enough information to confirm this, we would need to know the value of K.
  • The rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction. TRUE. This is always true for a reaction at equilibrium.
  • The rate of the forward reaction is greater than the rate of the reverse reaction. FALSE. At equilibrium, both rates are equal.

For the reaction below at dynamic equilibrium, it is true that the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction.
