What is the simplest method of determining the composition of a compound?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kaheart [24]1 year ago
8 0

Answer:

Chemical formulas tell you how many atoms of each element are in a compound, and <u>empirical formulas</u> tell you the simplest or most reduced ratio of elements in a compound. If a compound's chemical formula cannot be reduced anymore, then the empirical formula is the same as the chemical formula.

Explain the difference between fixed and variable oxidation
dem82 [27]

Fixed vs Variable Oxidation is given below.

Explanation:

1.In its compounds, hydrogen has an oxidation number of +1, except. hydrides where the. oxidation number of hydrogen is -1. In their compounds, the metals with fixed oxidation states have the oxidation number that. corresponds with the fixed oxidation number.

A variable oxidation state is a value that determines the charge of the atom depending on certain conditions.

2. Ox­i­da­tion state of el­e­ments is con­sid­ered to be of the most im­por­tant in the study of chem­istry. For some el­e­ments, this fig­ure is con­stant known as fixed oxidation , while for oth­ers it is vari­able is called variable oxidation state.

3. MgCl2 :  magnesium is in Group IIA and all elements in Group IIA have fixed oxidation numbers of +2

FeCl2 :  iron has a variable oxidation number of either +2 or +3 and is not fixed

Butterflies are cold-blooded and need the light from the sun to warm the muscles they use to fly. Not only do butterflies like the sun, the plants the they thrive on need full direct sun. Most plants need at least 8 hours of sunlight to bloom properly and provide enough nectar.

Which of the following is true for balancing equations?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

D) There must be equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.

Explanation:

The balancing equation must have equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.

The balance equation shoes mass is conserved thus followed the law of conservation of mas.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

For example:

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.

How many liters of 4.0 M NaOH solution will react with 0.60 liters 3.0 M H2SO4?
slava [35]

Answer:

A. 0.90 L.

Explanation:

  • NaOH solution will react with H₂SO₄ according to the balanced reaction:

<em>H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH → Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O.</em>

<em>1.0 mole of H₂SO₄ reacts with 2.0 moles of NaOH.</em>

  • For NaOH to react completely with H₂SO₄, the no. of millimoles should be equal.

<em>∴ (MV) NaOH = (xMV) H₂SO₄.</em>

x for H₂SO₄ = 2, due to having to reproducible H⁺ ions.

<em>∴ V of NaOH = (xMV) H₂SO₄/ M of NaOH</em> = 2(0.6 L)(3.0 M)/(4.0 M) = <em>0.90 L.</em>
