MgCl₂ is an empirical formula for magnesium chloride.

<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>

The empirical formula of a chemical compound in chemistry is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound. Two simple instances of this concept are the empirical formulas of sulfur monoxide (SO) and disulfur dioxide (S2O2). As a result, the empirical formulas for the sulfur and oxygen compounds sulfur monoxide and disulfur dioxide are the same. However, they do not share the same molecular formulas, which indicate the number of atoms in each molecule of a chemical compound.

An empirical formula does not mention the arrangement or number of atoms. It is typical for many macromolecules, including ionic compounds like calcium chloride and silicon dioxide (SiO2) (CaCl2).

A nickel compound has the formula Ni(NO3)2•xH,0 and a molar mass
Fofino [41]
<h2>Answer:  x = 6</h2>

Explanation:

Molar mass of a compound is the sum of the molar mass of all the atoms of the compound.

⇒ Molar mass of the Nickel Compound (Hydrated Nickel (II) Nitrate)

             = Molar mass (Ni+ 2N + 6O)+ x (2H+ O)

             = [58.693 +  2(14.007) + 6(15.999)] + x [2(1.008) + 15.999] g/mol

             = (182.701 + 18.015x) g/mol

Since the molar mass is known to be  290.7 g/mol

then  182.701 + 18.015x = 290.7

⇒                       18.015x =  290.7 - 182.701

                                    x =  (290.7 - 182.701) ÷ 18.015

∴                                   x = 6    [conventionally expressed as a whole number]

            that makes the compound Nickel Nitrate Hexahydrate

Katyanochek1 [597]
The net osmosis will occur in the direction of the NaCl solution. This is because the solute concentration on that side is greater than that of the glucose solution. Osmosis is the process by which liquids move through semi permeable membrane from the region of lower concentration to the region of higher concentration.
Thus the water is going to move from the glucose solution into the NaCl solution.<span />
