Give the compound a mass of 100 grams, so that the mass of each element is
C=52.14% of 100g = 52.14g
H=13.13g
O=34.73g

convert the mass to moles
divide the mole value by the smallest number of moles calculated
round to nearest whole number, this is the mole ratio / subscripts

Will the calculated Molarity of NaOH be too high or too low or unaffected if the following happen: when you answer the question,
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The result will be affected.

The mass of KHP  weighed out was used to calculate the moles of KHP weighed out (moles = mass/molar mass).

Not all the sample is actually KHP if the KHP is a little moist, so when mass was used to determine the moles of KHP, a higher number of moles than what is actually present would be obtained (because some of that mass was not KHP but it was assumed to be so. Therefore, there is actually a less present number of moles than the certain number that was thought of.

During the titration, NaOH reacts in a 1:1 ratio with KHP. So it was determined that there was the same number of moles of NaOH was the volume used as there were KHP in the mass that was weighed out. Since there was an overestimation in the moles of KHP, then there also would be an overestimation in the number of moles of NaOH.

Thus, NaOH will appear at a higher concentration than it actually is.

Mechanism with a small activation energy or one with large activation energy​
tangare [24]

Answer:

Rate depends on the rate constant. The rate constant depends on temperature and activation energy. If you have lower activation energy the rate will be higher. This is why catalysts are added since catalysts provide an alternate pathway that requires lower activation energy and catalysts are added to increase the rate of reaction.

Explanation:

This is only the answer if you were asking:

"Which corresponds to the faster rate: a mechanism with a small activation energy or one with a large activation energy?"

Thats what I understood about your question.
