Given, 33.019 mol of co₂ of and 6.75g of  h₂o

mol of co₂ = mass/molar mass = 33.01g/44gmol = 0.75 mol

Since 1mol have co₂ 1 mol c

Hence 0.75 mol have = 0.75 mol

Now,

mol of H₂O = 6.75g/18gmol = 0.375 mol

Since 1mol H20 have = 2 mol H

Hence 0.375 mol H20 have = 2x0.375 mol H = 0.75 mol H.

Now

mol of H = [0.75 mol x4] = 3mol

mol of c = [0.75 molx4] = 3 mol

Hence

Empirical Formula = CH.

This is done by dividing the atomic mass by the molecular mass and then multiplying it by the mass of the compound is made. Therefore, the molecular formula for this hydrocarbon is CH3 because it has a ratio of 1 carbon atom to 3 hydrogen atoms. The general formula for saturated hydrocarbons with one ring is CnH2n. Most compounds require information other than the chemical formula to elucidate the structure. However, the CH ratio in the chemical formula can provide information about the chemical structure.

what does it mean when the h3o+ to x- distance doesn't change much as the first 4 to 5 water molecules are added
podryga [215]
If X is an equivalent base to H₂O
HX is an equivalent acid to H₃O⁺
HX is a stronger acid than H₃O⁺
HX is not an acid
X⁻ is a stronger base than H₂O
HX is a weaker acid than H₃O⁺
X⁻ is a weaker base than H₂O
X⁻ is not a base.

The correct response or this is 
X⁻ is a stronger base than H₂O
HX is a weaker acid than H₃O⁺

What is the halogen in period 5?? it has six letters
Misha Larkins [42]
Simple,

take a look at your periodic table, if you have it labeled look at the Halogen

Group, it includes: Flourine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, and Astatine.

Now, a period on the periodic table is read from left to right, and goes

down the rows of the periodic table.

Go to Period 5, go all the way to the Halogens, what is there? 

Iodine.

Thus, your answer.
