Empirical formula is the simplest formula showing the simplest ratio of atoms in a compound. Calculated as shown;
 we start by calculating the number of moles of each atom;
moles of nickel = 9.11 g ÷ 58.7 g = 0.155 moles 
moles of fluorine = 5.89 g ÷ 19 g = 0.31 moles
Then we get the ratio of the moles of nickel to that of flourine
 That is 0.155 : 0.31  (dividing by the smallest)
            0.155/0.155 : 0.31/0.155
we get 1:2  ( the simplest ratio)
Therefore the empirical formula is nif2

What is the pH of a solution with (H3O+)=5.6x10-2M?
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Concentration of H₃O⁺  = 5.6 x 10⁻²M

Solution:

To solve for the concentration of H₃O⁺ in the solution, we simply use the expression below:

            pH = -log₁₀[H₃O⁺]

where [H₃O⁺] =  5.6 x 10⁻²M is the concentration of H₃O⁺

            pH = -log₁₀[5.6 x 10⁻²] = - x -1.25 = 1.25

The world's total petroleum reserve is estimated at 2.0 x 10^22 joules La joule (J) is the unit of energy where 1J =1kg m^2/s^2)
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

It will take 1.1\times 10^{2}years to exhaust the supply

Explanation:

We have to apply unitary method to solve this problem.

Divide total petroleum reserve by petroleum consumption in each year to calculate estimated time.

Presently, 1.8\times 10^{20} joules of petroleum are being consumed per year.

Hence, applying unitary method, 2.0\times 10^{22} joules of petroleum can be consumed in \frac{2.0\times 10^{22}}{1.8\times 10^{20}}years=1.1\times 10^{2}years

A 0.72-mol sample of PCl5 is put into a 1.00-L vessel and heated. At equilibrium, the vessel contains 0.40 mol of PCl3 (g) and 0
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Equilibrium constant is 0.4

Explanation:

We propose the equilibrium:

                 PCl₅(g)    ⇄    PCl₃(g)   +    Cl₂(g)

Initially    0.72 mol

We have the 0.72 moles of the PCl₅.

React           x                      x                  x

X amount has reacted, so in the equilibrium we have:

               0.72 - x              0.4               0.4

If we initially have 0.72 moles and we have 0.4 moles at the equilibrium, it means that 0.3 moles has been reacted.

Let's make the expression for Kc:

Kc = [PCl₃] . [Cl₂] /  [PCl₅]

Kc =  0.4 . 0.4 / 0.4

Kc = 0.4
