Explanation:

Fusion reaction is defined as a reaction in which two small nuclei combine together and result in the formation of a large nuclei along with release of huge amount of energy.

For example, ^{2}_{1}H + ^{2}_{1}H \rightarrow ^{4}_{2}He is a nuclear fusion reaction.

On the other hand, a fission reaction is defined as a reaction in which a large nuclei splits into two small nuclei along with release of huge amount of energy.

For example, ^{238}_{92}U \rightarrow ^{234}_{90}Th + ^{4}_{2}He is a nuclear fission reaction.

Therefore, in both these reactions it is common that energy is releasing due to conversion of mass into energy.

Thus, we can conclude that energy is released by converting mass into energy is one way that fission and fusion are similar.

Answer:

C2H2O4

Explanation:

To get the molecular formula, we first get the empirical formula. This can be done by dividing the percentage compositions by the atomic masses. The percentage compositions are shown as follows :

C = 26.86%

H = 2.239%

O = 100 - ( 26.86 + 2.239) = 70.901%

We then proceed to divide by their atomic masses. Atomic mass of carbon is 12 a.m.u , H = 1 a.m.u , O = 16 a.m.u

The division is as follows:

C = 26.86/12 = 2.2383

H = 2.239/1 = 2.239

O = 70.901/16 = 4.4313

We now divide each by the smallest number I.e 2.2383

C = 2.2383/2.2383 = 1

H = 2.239/2.2383 = 1

O = 4.4313/2.2383 = 1.98 = 2

Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2.

To get the molecular formula, we use the molar mass .

(CHO2)n = 90

We add the atomic masses multiplied by n.

(12 + 1 + 2(16))n = 90

45n = 90

n = 90/45 = 2.

Thus , the molecular formula is C2H2O4

Which formula is an empirical formula?
poizon [28]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The empirical formula is the option B. NH_{3}

<h2>Why?</h2>

The empirical formula of a compound is the simplest formula that can be written. On the opposite, the molecular formula involves a variant of the same compound, but it can be also simplified to an empirical formula.

MolecularFormula=n(EmpiricalFormula)

We are looking for a formula that cannot be simplified by dividing the number of molecules/atoms that conforms the compound.

Let's discard option by option in order to find which formula is an empirical formula (cannot be simplified)

A. N_{2}O_{4}

It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.

N_{2}O_{4}=2(NO_{2})

B. NH_{3}

It's an empirical formula since it cannot be obtained by the multiplication of a whole number and the simplest formula. It's the simplest formula that we can find of the compound.

C. C_{3}H_{6}

It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.

C_{3}H_{6}=3(CH_{2})

D. P_{4}O_{10}

It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.

P_{4}O_{10}=2(P_{2}O_{5})

Hence, the empirical formula is the option B. NH_{3}

How many formula units are there in 212 grams of mgCl2
AleksandrR [38]

Formula units are there in 212 grams of MgCl₂ are 830.56

Formula is the empirical of any ionic or covalent network solid compound used as an independent entity for stoichiometric calculations and it is the lowest whole number ratio of ions represented in an ionic compound

Here given data is

MgCl₂ = 212 grams

1 mole of magnesium chloride has mass = 95.211 gram and contains 6.022×10²³formula units of magnesium chloride

Here 212 grams×6.022×10²³form unit of MgCl₂/95.211 gram = 830.56
