What is an empirical formula for a compound that is 82.2% nitrogen and 17.8% hydrogen

Percent to mass
Mass to mole
Divide by small
Multiply 'til whole

Assume 100 g of substance, then 82.2 g N and 17.8 g H.

82.2 g N * (1 mol/14.01 g N) = 5.86 mol N
17.8 g H * (1 mol/1.01 g H) = 17.6 mol H

Divide by the smallest mole
17.6 H / 17.6  = 1 H
5.86 N / 17.6 =  1/3 N

Multiply to make whole number ( x3 in this case)
3 x 1 H = 3H
3 x 1/3 N = 1 N

Find the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation with a frequency of 3x10^-18Hz (Show Work)
aalyn [17]

Answer:

λ   = 1×10²⁶m

Explanation:

Given data:

Wavelength of radiation =  ?

Frequency of radiation = 3×10⁻¹⁸Hz

Solution:

Formula:

c = f × λ

c = speed of wave = 3×10⁸ m/s

by putting values,

3×10⁸ m/s =   3×10⁻¹⁸Hz  × λ

λ  =  3×10⁸ m/s /  3×10⁻¹⁸s⁻¹

λ   = 1×10²⁶m

The process of asking questions is known as
Luda [366]
Inquiring, which comes from the word inquiry which means, "an act of asking a question". In science, the first part of the scientific method is asking questions about the world around you and then after that, conducting experiments to get answers.

Explain why crystallisation can't be used to prepare calcium carbonate.​
liq [111]

Explanation:

The mechanisms by which amorphous intermediates transform into crystalline materials are poorly understood. Currently, attracting enormous interest is the crystallization of amorphous calcium carbonate, a key intermediary in synthetic, biological, and environmental systems. Here we attempt to unify many contrasting and contradictory studies by investigating this process in detail. We show that amorphous calcium carbonate can dehydrate before crystallizing, both in solution and in air, while thermal analyses and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance measurements reveal that its water is present in distinct environments. Loss of the final water fraction—comprising less than 15% of the total—then triggers crystallization. The high activation energy of this step suggests that it occurs by partial dissolution/recrystallization, mediated by surface water, and the majority of the particle then crystallizes by a solid-state transformation. Such mechanisms are likely to be widespread in solid-state reactions and their characterization will facilitate greater control over these processes.
