Answer:

The molecular formula = C_{6}H_{6}

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of compound, m = 0.145 g

Temperature = 200 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (200 + 273.15) K = 473.15 K

V = 97.2 mL = 0.0972 L

Pressure = 0.74 atm

Considering,  

n=\frac{m}{M}

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=\frac{m}{M}RT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

m is the mass of the gas

M is the molar mass of the gas

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the values in the above equation as:-

0.74\times 0.0972=\frac{0.145}{M}\times 0.0821\times 473.15

M=78.31\ g/mol

The empirical formula is = CH

Molecular formulas is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound while empirical formulas is the simplest or reduced ratio of the elements in the compound.

Thus,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

Where, n is any positive number from 1, 2, 3...

Mass from the Empirical formula = 12 + 1 = 13 g/mol

Molar mass = 78.31 g/mol

So,  

Molecular mass = n × Empirical mass

78.31 = n × 13

⇒ n ≅ 6

The molecular formula = C_{6}H_{6}

It is important to understand that while the absorbance value is related to the amount of light absorbed by a sample, it is not
Trava [24]

When 100 photons of light pass through a sample and 64 photons are detected after the passage of light, the number of photons transmitted through the sample is 64.

This is based on the methods of calculating the absorbance of light, which is depicted as the higher the amount of light transmission, the lower the amount of light absorbed.

Thus, when 64 photons of light in 100 photons are detected, 64 photons are transmitted, and therefore, the number of photons absorbed is 36.

Hence, hypothetically, if 100 photons of light are transmitted, 0 photons of light will be absorbed.

Therefore, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is 64 photos.

How many capsules containing 75mg of Tamiflu could be produced from 155g of star anise.?
jeyben [28]
From the question you will find that:
one capsule of tamiflu is obtained from 2.6 g of star anise.
1 capsule   = 2.6 g tamiflu
? capsules = 155 g tamiflu
by cross multiplication = \frac{(1 x 155)}{2.6} = 59 capsules
