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

A typical aspirin tablet contains 327 mg of acetylsalicylic acid, HC9H7O4. Calculate the pH of a solution that is prepared by di
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

2.8

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the molarity of the acetylsalicylic acid solution.

M = mass of solute (g) / molar mass of solute × volume of solution (L)

M = 0.327 g / 180.158 g/mol × 0.237 L

M = 7.66 × 10⁻³ M

For a weak acid such as acetylsalicylic acid, we can find the concentration of H⁺ using the following expression.

[H⁺] = √(Ca × Ka)

where,

Ca: concentration of the acid

Ka: acid dissociation constant

[H⁺] = √(7.66 × 10⁻³ × 3.3 × 10⁻⁴)

[H⁺] = 1.6 × 10⁻³ M

The pH is:

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log 1.6 × 10⁻³ = 2.8

Rank the following elements by effective nuclear charge, Zeff, for a valence electron. F LI Be B N
Stels [109]

Answer:

Rank in increasing order of effective nuclear charge:

  • Li < Be < B < N < F

Explanation:

This explains the meaning of effective nuclear charge, Zeff, how to determine it, and the calculations for a valence electron of each of the five given elements: F, Li, Be, B, and N.

<u>1) Effective nuclear charge definitions</u>

  • While the total positive charge of the atom nucleus (Z) is equal to the number of protons, the electrons farther away from the nucleus experience an effective nuclear charge (Zeff) less than the total nuclear charge, due to the fact that electrons in between the nucleus and the outer electrons partially cancel the atraction from the nucleus.

  • Such effect on on a valence electron is estimated as the atomic number less the number of electrons closer to the nucleus than the electron whose effective nuclear charge is being determined: Zeff = Z - S.

<u><em>2) Z eff for a F valence electron:</em></u>

  • F's atomic number: Z = 9
  • Total number of electrons: 9 (same numer of protons)
  • Period: 17 (search in the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons:  7 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 9 - 7 = 2
  • Zeff = Z - S = 9 - 2 = 7

<u><em>3) Z eff for a Li valence eletron:</em></u>

  • Li's atomic number: Z = 3
  • Total number of electrons: 3 (same number of protons)
  • Period: 1 (search on the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons: 1 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 3 - 1 = 2
  • Z eff = Z - S = 3 - 2 = 1.

<em>4) Z eff for a Be valence eletron:</em>

  • Be's atomic number: Z = 4
  • Total number of electrons: 4 (same number of protons)
  • Period: 2 (search on the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons: 2 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 4 - 2 = 2
  • Z eff = Z - S = 4 - 2 = 2

<u><em>5) Z eff for a B valence eletron:</em></u>

  • B's atomic number: Z = 5
  • Total number of electrons: 5 (same number of protons)
  • Period: 13 (search on the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons: 3 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 5 - 3 = 2
  • Z eff = Z - S = 5 - 2 = 3

<u><em>6) Z eff for a N valence eletron:</em></u>

  • N's atomic number: Z = 7
  • Total number of electrons: 7 (same number of protons)
  • Period: 15 (search on the periodic table or do the electron configuration)
  • Number of valence electrons: 5 (equal to the last digit of the period's number)
  • Number of electrons closer to the nucleus than a valence electron: S = 7 - 5 = 2
  • Z eff = Z - S = 7 - 2 = 5

<u><em>7) Summary (order):</em></u>

  Atom          Zeff for a valence electron

  • F                   7
  • Li                   1
  • Be                 2
  • B                   3
  • N                   5

  • <u>Conclusion</u>: the order is Li < Be < B < N < F

Motivation that is physical and can be touched like a trophy or a medal is:
Talja [164]

Answer:

Tangible

Explanation:

Tangible alone means it is "perceptible by touch," meaning you physically observe the object with your sense of touch.

Having tangible motivation is like working for money or a trophy.
