Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components making up the compound. the molecular formula is the actual ratio of components making up the compound.
the empirical formula is CH₂. We can find the mass of CH₂ one empirical unit and have to then find the number of empirical units in the molecular formula.
Mass of one empirical unit - CH₂ - 12 g/mol x 1 + 1 g/mol x 2 = 12 = 14 g
Molar mass of the compound is - 252 .5 g/mol
number of empirical units = molar mass / mass of empirical unit
= 
= 18 units
Therefore molecular formula is - 18 times the empirical formula
molecular formula - CH₂ x 18 = C₁₈H₃₆
molecular formula is C₁₈H₃₆
<u>Answer:</u> The isotopic symbol of barium is 
and that of strontium is 
<u>Explanation:</u>
Nuclear fission reactions are defined as the reactions in which a heavier nuclei breaks down in two or more smaller nuclei.
In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.
- For the given fission reaction:
Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side
235 + 1 = A + 94 + 3
A = 139
Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side
92 + 0 = Z + 36 + 0
Z = 56
The isotopic symbol of barium is 
- For the given fission reaction:
Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side
235 + 1 = A + 143 + 3
A = 90
Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side
92 + 0 = Z + 54 + 0
Z = 38
The isotopic symbol of strontium is
Hence, the isotopic symbol of barium is and that of strontium is
Answer:
Explanation:
Scientific laws or laws of science are statements, based on repeated experiments or observations, that describe or predict a range of natural phenomena.[1] The term law has diverse usage in many cases (approximate, accurate, broad, or narrow) across all fields of natural science (physics, chemistry, astronomy, geoscience, biology). Laws are developed from data and can be further developed through mathematics; in all cases they are directly or indirectly based on empirical evidence. It is generally understood that they implicitly reflect, though they do not explicitly assert, causal relationships fundamental to reality, and are discovered rather than invented.[2]
Answer:
An atom is made of up subatomic particles called protons, neutrons and electrons. The center of an atom is called the nucleus and is where the protons and neutrons are held while electrons orbit the nucleus in orbital shells. A electron has a negative charge, a proton has a positive charge, and a neutron has no charge (neutral).
The atomic number of a atom is the total amount of the atom's protons. In a neutral atom (Not an ion), the amount of electrons is the same as the protons. Therefore, the atomic number also tells the amount of electrons in the atom.
A ion is a negatively or positively charged particle due to the giving or taking of electrons with one or more atoms (Called an ionic bond). An atom that gives away electrons becomes positively charge because that atom now has more protons than neutrons. An atom that takes an electron becomes negatively charge because that atom now has more electrons than protons.
Atomic Mass is the sum of an atom proton and neutrons. To determine how many neutron an atom has, subtract the atomic mass from the atomic number. Electrons do not play a part in atomic mass as their mass is 1/1,836 of a proton's mass.
A isotope is two or more forms of the same element that contain equal amounts of protons but different amount of neutrons.
