Answer:

The molecular formula of estradiol is: C_{18}H_{24}O_2.

Explanation:

Molar mass of of estradiol = M= 272.37 g/mol

Let the molecular formula of estradiol be C_xH_yO_z

Percentage of an element in a compound:

\frac{\text{Number of atoms of element}\times \text{Atomic mass of element}}{\text{molecular mass of element}}\times 100

Percentage of carbon in estradiol  :

\frac{x\times 12 g/mol}{272.37 g/mol}\times 100=79.37\%

x = 18.0

Percentage of hydrogen in estradiol  :

\frac{y\times 1g/mol}{272.37 g/mol}\times 100=8.88\%

y = 24.2 ≈ 24

Percentage of oxygen in estradiol  :

\frac{z\times 16 g/mol}{272.37 g/mol}\times 100=11.75\%

z = 2

The molecular formula of estradiol is: C_xH_yO_z:C_{18}H_{24}O_2

Complete and balance the molecular equation for the reaction of aqueous sodium carbonate, Na 2 CO 3 Na2CO3 , and aqueous nickel(
antoniya [11.8K]

<u>Answer:</u> The net ionic equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.

Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation. They are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of sodium carbonate and nickel (II) chloride is given as:

Na_2CO_3(aq.)+NiCl_2(aq.)\rightarrow 2NaCl(aq.)+NiCO_3(s)

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

2Na^{+}(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)+Ni^{2+}(aq.)+2Cl^{-}(aq.)\rightarrow NiCO_3(s)+2Na^+(aq.)+2Cl^-(aq.)

As, sodium and chloride ions are present on both the sides of the reaction. Thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation and are spectator ions.

The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:

Ni^{2+}(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)\rightarrow NiCO_3(s)

Hence, the net ionic equation is written above.

What will happen if you add more dilute to a saturated solution
natita [175]
If you dilute a concentrated solution, the concentration of the obtained solution is smaller than that of the initial solution. But if you add more solute to a concentrated solution, the concentration of the obtained solution is greater than that of the initial.

Ca(OH)2 - How many Carbon, how many oxygen, and how many hydrogen in this formula? - please explain
aksik [14]

Answer: 1Ca + 2O + 2H

Explanation:

Ca is 1 since there is no subscript

O and H each have 2 because the subscript 2 is outside the parenthesis so you multiply their subscript (1) by 2
