We already know the molar mass of C is 12.01g/mol, of H is 1.008 g/mol, and of O is 16g/mol.

If the molecular formula were also the empirical formula (which is CH2O), then it would have a molar mass of:
12.01g/mol +2*(1.008g/mol)+ 16g/mol= 30.03g/mol

However, the actual molar mass of the molecular formula is 60.g/mol, which is about twice as large as 30.03g/mol. Therefore, we have to multiply the empirical formula by 2.

The molecular formula of this compound is (2) C2H4O2.

Hope this would help~

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

n=2.59\times 10^{16} photons

Explanation:

E=n\times \frac{h\times c}{\lambda}

Where,  

n is the number of photons

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

\lambda is the wavelength of the light

Given that, wavelength = 514 nm = 514\times 10^{-9}\ m

Energy = 10.0 mJ = 0.01 J ( 1 mJ = 0.001 J )

Applying the values as:-

0.01=n\times \frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{514\times 10^{-9}}

\frac{19.878n}{10^{17}\times \:514}=0.01

n=2.59\times 10^{16} photons

PSYCHO15rus [73]

The biological molecules that transport other substances are the proteins.

<h3>What are proteins?</h3>

Proteins are biological macromolecules that contains nitrogen in their molecules and are the building block of a living organism.

The proteins perform the following functions:

  • they transport other substances,

  • provide structural support,

  • cause the movement of muscles, and

  • catalyze chemical reactions in living organisms.
