Changing the volume increases the area that the molecules collide with so the force is spread over a larger area.
Hey there!
The sample of NF₃ contains 8.02 moles fluorine atoms.
There are 3 fluorine atoms in each molecule, so there will be 1/3 of the moles of fluorine.
8.02 / 3 = 2.67
There are 2.67 moles of NF₃ in a sample that contains 8.02 moles fluorine atoms.
Hope this helps!
Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A chemical formula which represents proportions between the elements present in a compound is known as empirical formula.
When chemical or molecular formula is able to be reduced to smaller whole-number ratio of the elements then both molecular and empirical formulas are considered to be the same.
Relation between molecular formula and empirical formula is as follows.
Molecular formula = n × Empirical formula
where, n is an integer.
Chemical formula of acetic acid is
.
Chemical formula of formaldehyde is
. It is the smaller whole-number ratio of molecular formula of acetic acid.
Chemical formula of Benzaldehyde is
.
Chemical formula of glucose is
.
Thus, we can conclude that formaldehyde molecules has/have the same empirical formula as acetic acid (
).
All you can conclude is that something must be burning with an orange flame.
Actually, the "something" that must be burning is the hydrogen that is produced when the sodium reacts with the water:
2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂ + heat
So much heat is produced that the hydrogen catches fire and some of the sodium evaporates into the flame.
The electrons in the sodium atoms get "excited" in the flame. When they drop back to a lower energy level, they emit energy in the form of an orange-yellow light.
