When we write a formula of a compound in its simplest form, it is empirical formula.
Given the molecular formula is = C₁₈H₃₆
Now we can relate both empirical and molecular formula as;
Molecular formula = n x empirical formula
C₁₈H₃₆ = 18 x CH₂
So the empirical formula of C₁₈H₃₆ is CH₂
<em>Calculate the pH of the following substances formed during a volcanic eruption:
</em>
<em>• Acid rain if the [H +] is 1.9 x 10-5
</em>
<em>• Sulfurous acid if [H +] = 0.10
</em>
<em>• Nitric acid if [H +] = 0.11</em>

<h3>Further explanation </h3>
pH is the degree of acidity of a solution that depends on the concentration of H⁺ ions. The greater the value the more acidic the solution and the smaller the pH.
pH = - log [H⁺]
![\tt pH=-log[1.9\times 10^{-5}]\\\\pH=5-log1.9\\\\pH=4.72](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctt%20pH%3D-log%5B1.9%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-5%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CpH%3D5-log1.9%5C%5C%5C%5CpH%3D4.72)
![\tt pH=-log[10^{-1}]\\\\pH=1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctt%20pH%3D-log%5B10%5E%7B-1%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CpH%3D1)
![\tt pH=-log[11\times 10^{-2}]\\\\pH=2-log~11=0.959](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Ctt%20pH%3D-log%5B11%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-2%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CpH%3D2-log~11%3D0.959)
Answer:
Explanation:
the elements are arranged according to their atomic number - not their relative atomic mass . In the periodic table the elements are arranged into: rows, called periods , in order of increasing atomic number. vertical columns, called groups , where the elements have similar properties
Explanation:
Balanced chemical reaction equation will be as follows.

In human body, the neutral iron changes into
(aq) cation. There will be an oxidation-half reaction and a reduction-half reaction. Equations for this reaction are as follows.
Oxidation: 2Fe^{2+}(aq) \rightleftharpoons 2Fe^{3+}(aq) + 2e^{-}[/tex] .... (1)
Reduction:
...... (2)
On adding both equation (1) and (2), the overall reaction equation will be as follows.

Therefore, neutral iron is a part of Heme - b group of Hemoglobin and in an aqueous solution it dissolutes as a part of Heme group. Hence, then it becomes an
cation.
