Answer:
C₂H₄O₂
Explanation:
Step 1: Divide each percentage by the atomic mass of the element
C: 40.00/12.01 = 3.331
H: 6.67/1.01 = 6.60
O: 53.33/16.00 = 3.333
Step 2: Divide all the numbers by the smallest one
C: 3.331/3.331 = 1
H: 6.60/3.331 ≈ 2
O: 3.333/3.331 ≈ 1
The empirical formula is CH₂O, with a molecular weight of 12 g/mol + 2 × 1 g/mol + 16 g/mol = 30 g/mol. The molecular weight of the compound must be a product of 30, such as 60 (between 55 and 62 g/mol). Since we have to multiply by 2 (30 to 60) to get to the molecular weight of the compound, we also have to multiply the empirical formula by 2 to get the chemical formula of the compound.
CH₂O × 2 = C₂H₄O₂
Answer:
Conduction
Explanation:
Because When air is in contact with the ocean it is at a different temperature than the seas surface
Answer:
A larger nuclear charge :)
Explanation:
The average atomic mass of your mixture is 1.03 u
.
The average atomic mass of H is the weighted average of the atomic masses of its isotopes.
We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its relative importance (i.e., its % abundance).
Thus,
0.99 × 1.01 u = 0.998 u
0.002 × 2.01 u = 0.004 u
0.008 × 3.02 u = <u>0.024 u</u>
TOTAL = 1.03 u
