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)

Which reaction takes place in a nuclear fission reactor?
Marat540 [252]

The reaction that takes place in a nuclear fission reactor is as follows: 235/92 U + 1/0n 94/36Kr + 139/56 Ba + 3/0n.

<h3>What is a nuclear fission reactor?</h3>

A nuclear fission reactor is the place where nuclear chain reactions occur that produce energy by fission.

Nuclear fission is the nuclear reaction in which a large nucleus splits into smaller ones with the simultaneous release of energy.

Therefore, the option that involves the splitting of atoms into smaller ones is as follows: 235/92 U + 1/0n 94/36Kr + 139/56 Ba + 3/0n.

What is the approximate energy of a photon having a frequency of 4 x 10^7 Hz (h=6.6 x 10^-34]•s)
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

E = 26.4 ×10⁻²⁷ j

Explanation:

Given data:

Energy of energy =?

Frequency = 4×10⁷ Hz

Solution:

Formula:

E = hf

E = hf

E =  6.6  ×10⁻³⁴ m²Kg/s  . 4×10⁷ Hz

Hz = s⁻¹

j = m²Kg/s ²

E = 26.4 ×10⁻²⁷ j.

A molecule with the formula ab3 has a trigonal planar geometry. part a how many electron groups are on the central atom?
True [87]
<span>Answer: 3 electron pairs Let's take BF3 for an example. When you find the valence electrons for this molecule --> [3+(3x6)], you'll get 24e-. You draw the Lewis dot structure and each of the F atom would have six dots around it (a total of 18 because there's 3 F atoms) and the B would have three lines [one line attached to each F. One line would equal to 2 valence electrons] and you get a total of 24 valence e-. The question asks how many groups are on the CENTRAL atom, meaning on the B. It would be three</span>

Cindy runs 2 kilometers every morning. She takes 2 minutes for the first 250 meters, 4 minutes for the next 1,000 meters, 1 minu
Andrei [34K]

In order to calculate average speed we will calculate the total distance in meters traveled by cindy.

Distance = 2 Km

1 km = 1000m

So distance in meters = 2000 m

Then let us calculate the total time taken by cindy to cover these 2000 meters

Total time in minutes = 2 + 4 + 1 + 3 = 10 minute

Average speed = total distance  / total time

Average speed = 2000 m / 10 minutes

average speed = 200 m / min
