The empirical formula of Lorelai's compound is C₄H₁₀O

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
  • C = 64.8 g
  • H = 13.62 g
  • O = 21.58 g
  • Empirical formula =?

<h3>How to determine the empirical formula</h3>

Divide by their molar mass

C = 64.8 / 12 = 5.4

H = 13.62 / 1 = 13.62

O = 21.58 / 16 = 1.35

Divide by the smallest

C = 5.4 / 1.35 = 4

H = 13.62 / 1.35 = 10

O = 1.35 / 1.35 = 1

Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is C₄H₁₀O

What is [h3o ] in a solution of 0.075 m hno2 and 0.030 m nano2?
Tanya [424]
Answer is: concentration of hydrogenium ions is 9,54·10⁻⁵ M.
c(HNO₂) = 0,075 M.
c(NaNO₂) = 0,035 M.
Ka(HNO₂) = 4,5·10⁻⁵.
This is buffer solution, so use <span>Henderson–Hasselbalch equation:
pH = pKa + log(c(</span>NaNO₂) ÷ c(HNO₂)).
pH = -log(4,5·10⁻⁵) + log(0,035 M ÷ 0,075 M).
pH = 4,35 - 0,33.
pH = 4,02.
<span>[H</span>₃O⁺] = 10∧(-4,02).
<span>[H</span>₃O⁺] = 0,0000954 M = 9,54·10⁻⁵ M.

Is particle size one of the factors that affect solubility? How?
Over [174]
Hello!

The reduction in particle size results in an increased rate of solution. It occur because is harder for a a solvent to surround bigger molecules.
