If 15.60 g of a hydrated compound is heated in an oven for several hours, its mass drops to 8.63 g. Assuming that the reduction

in mass is due to loss of water, what is the percentage of water in the original hydrate?

In order to calculate the percent of water in the hydrate, we need to know the amount of water that is lost after heating. We simply subtract the initial amount and the final amount. We do as follows:

mass of water = 15.60 g - 8.63 g = 6.97 g

Percent water = 6.97 / 15.60 x 100 = 44.68%

Mass of water = 15.60 g - 8.63 g = 6.97 g

Percent water = 6.97 / 15.60 x 100 = 44.68%
Good Luck, I hope this helps you!! :)

A refracting telescope uses convex lenses to gather a large amount of light and focus it onto a small area while a reflecting telescope the mirror instead of an objective lens they are also similar because like the lenses in a refracting telescope the mirror in a reflecting telescope focuses a large amount of light onto a small area.

Which formula is an empirical formula?
poizon [28]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The empirical formula is the option B. NH_{3}

<h2>Why?</h2>

The empirical formula of a compound is the simplest formula that can be written. On the opposite, the molecular formula involves a variant of the same compound, but it can be also simplified to an empirical formula.

MolecularFormula=n(EmpiricalFormula)

We are looking for a formula that cannot be simplified by dividing the number of molecules/atoms that conforms the compound.

Let's discard option by option in order to find which formula is an empirical formula (cannot be simplified)

A. N_{2}O_{4}

It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.

N_{2}O_{4}=2(NO_{2})

B. NH_{3}

It's an empirical formula since it cannot be obtained by the multiplication of a whole number and the simplest formula. It's the simplest formula that we can find of the compound.

C. C_{3}H_{6}

It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.

C_{3}H_{6}=3(CH_{2})

D. P_{4}O_{10}

It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.

P_{4}O_{10}=2(P_{2}O_{5})

Hence, the empirical formula is the option B. NH_{3}

Have a nice day!

FrozenT [24]
A colloid has the particles that have the ability to scatter light called the Tyndall effect named after the scientist named Tyndall. A suspension has large suspended particles that settle out at the bottom of the container. A solution has small particles that are evenly distributed throughout. Hence the answer is choice 2.

Carbohydrate loading Group of answer choices involves a reduction in the intensity of workouts with a corresponding increase in
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

the correct option would be:

The group of response options implies a reduction in the intensity of the workouts with a corresponding increase in the percentage of carbohydrate intake for several days before a competition.

Since the carbohydrate load is an increase in glycogen reserves as an energy source accompanied by a decrease in muscle demand. This is often used in high-performance activities, where strict competencies are required.

Although today some professionals do not support that, but rather support a diet with carbohydrates and proteins.

Explanation:

Carbohydrate loading increases glycogen reserves, it is accompanied by a muscle rest plan, without fatigue of muscle fibers.

The purpose of this is to exhaust the muscle fibers in maximum demands such as the competencies, ensuring a necessary energy source that supplies this reaction, for which glycogen reserves are needed.
