Answer:

CStO3

Explanation:

What is need to be done here is to first divide the percentage compositions by the respective atomic masses. Atomic mass of strontium is 90, that of oxygen is 16 and that of carbon is 12.

Let’s proceed with the divisions:

St = 59/90 = 0.656

O = 33/16 = 2.0625

C = 8/12 = 0.667

Now, we divide through all by the smallest answer which is 0.656:

St = 0.656/0.656 = 1

O = 2.0625/0.656 = 3.144 = 3

C = 0.667/0.656 = 1.0167 = 1

The empirical formula is thus CStO3

Hi:) why covalent substances don’t have free moving ions / electrons?
Igoryamba

Answer:

Covalent compounds don't contain ions because they make bonds by sharing electrons. In addition, they don't have any charge carries that are free to move so they can't carry electric current

What force was applied to an object if 35 j of work was done and the object moved 7 m?
Serjik [45]

5N force was applied to an object if 35 j of work was done and the object moved 7 m

A force is an effect that can alter an object motion according to physics and an object with mass can change its velocity or accelerate as a result force and also force is as push or pull and work done by the force on an object means assuming that direction of the force is parallel to the displacement of the object

Then the formula is

W = f × d

Where f is the magnitude of force and d is the displacement of the object

Then W = 35 J is the work done and

d = 7m is the displacement of the object

So rearrange the equation then

F = 35/7 = 5N

5N force was applied to an object if 35 j of work was done and the object moved 7 m

The ability of sodium chloride to dissolve in water is an example of a (D, right?)
kupik [55]
D) Physical Change, I would argue, because you can reverse this change by boiling off (evaporating) the water. But there are arguments for both physical and chemical change being what occurs.

A physical change results in a change of the material's appearance, but no new chemical products result. A chemical change involves a chemical reaction, with new substances produced as a result of the change.

What happens to the cool and hot zones of a nonluminous flame when the air control valve is closed?
lesya [120]

When the cool and hot zones of a non luminous flame’s air control valve is closed, the gas in which will be in placed as first and as it encounters air as it was in the mouth of the burner, there will be a presence of incomplete mixing, causing a combustion which would be incomplete and will also lead to a process that can’t be controlled, resulting to flame that is cool.
