Describe a chemical formula give an example

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vlad1618 [11]3 years ago
3 0

A chemical formula identifies each constituent element by its chemical symbol and indicates the proportionate number of atoms of each element.

<em>For example, the empirical formula of ethanol may be written C2H6O because the molecules of ethanol all contain two carbon atoms, six hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom.</em>

You mix 145 grams of water with 200 grams of ethanol to make a solution. What is the solute and what is the solvent?
hodyreva [135]

The greater amount is the solvent and the lesser amount is the solute.

Hence ethanol(200g) which is the greater amount is the solvent here.

And water (145g) which is lesser is the solute here.

Four springs are stretched to the same distance from the equilibrium position. The spring constants are listed in the table. A 2
svp [43]

Answer:

The correct option is;

X, W, Y, Z

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Spring (S),         Spring Constant (N/m)

      W,                   24

      X,                    35

      Y,                    22

      Z,                    15

The equation for elastic potential energy, E_e, is E_e = 0.5 \times k \times x^2

The above equation can also be written as E_e =\dfrac{1}{2}  \times k \times x^2

Where:

k = The spring constant in (N/m)

x = The spring extension

Therefore, since the elastic potential energy, E_e, of the spring is directly proportional to the spring constant, k, we have the springs with higher spring constant will have higher elastic potential energy, E_e, therefore the correct order is as follows;

X > W > Y > Z

A gallon of water has a mass of 3.79 kg. how many moles of water (18.02 g/mol) is this?
garik1379 [7]
First, we will convert the mass of the gallon to grams:
a gallon of water has a mass of 3.79 * 1000 = 3790 grams of water

number of moles can be calculated using the following rule:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore,
number of moles = 3790 / 18.02 = 210.32 moles
