Answer:

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ ).

Explanation:

The empirical formula is obtained when we divide the molecular formula with a whole number giving the simplest ratio of all the elements (in whole number).

a) C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ :

There is no number with which we can divide the ratio further to get a simpler formula hence the molecular formula of the given compound is the empirical formula of the compound. Hence it is correct.

(C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁),

(b) C₈H₁₂O₄

The empirical formula can be obtained by dividing the formula with "4"

The empirical formula would be

(C₂H₃O)

(c) H₂O₂

The empirical formula would be (H₁O₁)

What happens when you increase the temperature of a reaction?
aalyn [17]
D. More collisions occur and the time required for the reaction decreases
This happens because according to collision theory, when energy (in this case, thermal energy) is applied to particles, they move/vibrate more quickly.

How many moles of CH4 are in 148.6 g? Round your answer to two decimal places.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

9.29 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles = ?

Mass = 148.6 g

Solution:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Molar mass of CH₄ = 16 g/mol

Now we will put the values in formula.

Number of moles = 148.6 g/ 16 g/mol

Number of moles = 9.29 mol

Thus 148.6 g have 9.29 moles.

The process of chlorination in water treatment aims at ?​
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Chlorowanie wody jest procesem względnie tanim – koszt zbudowania samej instalacji do dezynfekcji, jak również koszt operacyjny wytworzenia 1 metra sześciennego uzdatnionej chlorem wody jest niższy od dezynfekcji wody za pomocą ozonu. Źródłem chloru w procesie dezynfekcji jest zazwyczaj podchloryn sodu, rzadziej dwutlenek chloru.
