1. Calculate the empirical formula of a compound that contains 2% hydrogen, 74 % carbon and 24% oxygen.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ludmilka [50]3 years ago
5 0

empirical formula = when the percentage compositions by mass of elements in a compound are divided by their relative atomic masses.

from the obtained amount the smallest amount will divide all.

the answers can then be rounded off if in decimals or they can be multiplied by 2 if they have .5 decimals e.g 2.5 , 7.5 , etc.

solution: HYDROGEN    CARBON      OXYGEN

                2/1                      74/12               24/16

                  2                         6.167                 1.5

                  2 / 1.5                  6.167 / 1.5           1.5 / 1.5

                  1.333                        4.111                   1

                      1                              4                        1


answer :     C4OH

What did ruthorford discover that thomson did not understand
Marianna [84]

Answer: Atoms aren't entirely empty space

Explanation:

Rutherford did his scatter experiment to disprove Thomson's Plum Pudding Model. Rutherford shot helium nuclei at a sheet of gold and expected the particles to all go straight through to a sensor. The reason he expected this was because Thomson said that atoms are mostly made of empty space. Not all the particles went through the gold sheet, a lot of them actually reflected back to him. This meant that atoms aren't entirely empty space and something had to deflect the helium nuclei

What is electronegativity ???​
guapka [62]

Answer:

Electronegativity, symbolized as χ, is the tendency for an atom of a given chemical element to attract shared electrons (or electron density) when forming a chemical bond. An atom's electronegativity is affected by both its atomic number and the distance at which its valence electrons reside from the charged nucleus.

The conjugate acid of a particular halide has a pka = 3. a student wants to use this halide in a substitution reaction thinking
Taya2010 [7]

Since the leaving ability of the halide ions increasees as the basicity of the halide decreases.

If the basicity of the halide decreases as the its conjugate acid is strong.

Since the pKa value of conjuage acid of haldie is 3, it is a weak acid. So, it halide is not a good leaving group.

Therefore the answer is No, because a good leaving group is the conjugate base of a strong acid. The halide not acidic enough to be a good leaving group.

Which statements are true about reversible reactions?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Reversible reactions exhibit the same reaction rate for forward and reverse reactions at equilibrium.

Reversible reactions exhibit constant concentrations of reactants and products at equilibrium

Explanation:

A reversible reaction is a reaction that can proceed in both forward and backward direction.

Equilibrium is attained in a chemical system when there is no observable change in the properties of the system.

At equilibrium, a reversible reaction is occurring in at same rate. That is, the forward and backward reaction is occurring at the same rate. As the rate of the forward and backward reaction remains the same, the concentrations of the reactants and products will also be the same in order for the equilibrium to be maintained.
