The combustion reaction is as expressed,
CxHy + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
The mass fraction of carbon in CO2 is 3/11. Hence,
mass of C in CO2 = (3.14 g)(3/11) = 0.86 g C.
Given that we have 1 g of the hydrocarbon, the mass of H is equal to 0.14 g.
moles of C = 0.86 g C / 12 g = 0.0713
moles of H = 0.14 g H / 1 g = 0.14
The empirical formula for the hydrocarbon is therefore, CH₂.
I would say the answer is A.
Answer:

Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, since the given 5-M concentration of magnesium chloride is expressed as:

We can notice that one mole of salt contains two moles of chloride ions as the subscript of chlorine is two, in such a way, with the volume of solution we obtain the moles of chloride ions as shown below:

Best regards.
Decay is a type of degradation reaction and thus is considered a first order reaction. thus the formula goes like this.
rate constant= 0.693/half life
so here...
rate constant= 0.693/1620 year^-1
