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

How much heat is lost when 0.440 mol of steam condenses at 100 °C?
dusya [7]

Answer:

17,890 J

Explanation:

The amount of heat released by a gaseous substance when it condenses is given by the formula

Q=n\lambda_v

where

n is the number of moles of the substance

\lambda_v is the latent heat of vaporization

The formula can be applied if the substance is at its vaporization temperature.

In this problem, we have:

n = 0.440 mol is the number of moles of steam

\lambda_v=40,660 J/mol is the latent heat of vaporization of water

And the steam is already at 100C, so we can apply the formula:

Q=(0.440)(40660)=17,890 J

Please help ASAP!! <br><br>I am not sure how to solve this! <br><br>​

Answer:

Potassium (K) has 19 protons.

Each neutral atom of Potassium has 19 electrons.

Explanation:

A) Potassium has 19 protons because the atomic number tells us how many protons are in an atom of the element. (The atomic number is the number above the element symbol. For example, the number above "K" is 19, which is the atomic number).

B) If an atom is neutral, this means that the atom has neutral energy. Protons give positive energy and electrons give negative energy. For the atom to be neutral, the atom must have balanced energy, therefore, making the number of electrons equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.

PolarNik [594]
According to Balance chemical equation,

                                         N₂  +  3 H₂    →     2 NH₃

1 mole of Nitrogen reacts with 3 moles of Hydrogen to produce 2 mole of Ammonia.
It is known that i mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure occupies 22.4 L of Volume. So, we can also say,

22.4 L (1 × 22.4) of Nitrogen gas (in question it is taken in excess) reacts with 67.2 L (22.4 × 3) of Hydrogen gas to produce 44.8 L (22.4 × 2) of Ammonia.

Result:
          44.8 L is the correct answer.
