The empirical and molecular formulas will be  C_5H_5O_2 and  C_1_0H_1_0O_4 respectively.

<h3>Empirical and molecular formula</h3>

The compound contains C, H, and O.

C = 61.15/12 = 5.0958

H = 5.3/1 = 5.3

O = 31.55/16 = 1.9719

Divide by the smallest

C = 2.6

H = 2.7

O = 1

Thus, the empirical formula is C_5H_5O_2

Empirical formula mass = (12x5) + (1x5) + 16x2 = 97

n = 152.15/97 = 2

The molecular formula is C_1_0H_1_0O_4

What is a cation and where can you find it on the periodic table?
Maslowich

Answer:

A cation is an ion with fewer electrons than protons. Therefore, it has a positive charge. The electric charge on a proton is equal in amount to the charge on an electron. Anions are atoms or radicals (groups of atoms), that have gained electrons. Since they now have more electrons than protons, anions have a negative charge. Halogens always form anions, alkali metals and alkaline earth metals always form cations. Most other metals form cations (e.g. iron, silver, nickel), whilst most other nonmetals typically form anions (e.g. oxygen, carbon, sulfur).

Explanation:

An anion and cation cannot be specifically found on the periodic table.

Maggie has 4 binders with 30 stamps in each binder. She has 3 binders with 36 baseball cards in each binder. If she gives away 4
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The number of stamps and cards Maggie has left if she gives 45 stamps to a friend is 183

Explanation:

If Maggie gives 45 stamps to a friend, you must calculate the number of stamps and cards she has left.

You know Maggie has 4 folders with 30 stamps in each folder. So the number of stamps she owns is calculated as:

4 folders*30 stamps in each folder= 120 stamps

If Maggie gives 45 stamps to a friend, then the number of stamps she has left will be calculated as the difference (the subtraction) between the stamps she owned and the ones she gives away:

120 stamps - 45 stamps= 75 stamps

On the other hand, she has 3 binders with 36 baseball cards in each binder. So the number of cards she owns is calculated as:

3 binders * 36 baseball cards in each binders= 108 baseball cards

The number of stamps and cards you have left is calculated as:

75 stamps + 108 baseball cards= 183

<em><u>The number of stamps and cards Maggie has left if she gives 45 stamps to a friend is 183</u></em>
