Answer:

C) C₆H₁₂O₆.

Explanation:

  • We can determine the molecular formula by calculating the molecular mass of different choices.

Molecular mass = ∑(no. of atoms * atomic mass).

A) CH₂O:

molecular mass = atomic mass of C + 2*atomic mass of H + atomic mass of O = (12.0 g/mol) + (2 * 1.0 g/mol) + (16.0 g/mol) = 30.0 g/mol.

B) C₃H₈O₃:

molecular mass = 3(atomic mass of C) + 8(atomic mass of H) + 3(atomic mass of O) = 3(12.0 g/mol) + 8(1.0 g/mol) + 3(16.0 g/mol) = 92.0 g/mol.

C) C₆H₁₂O₆:

molecular mass = 6(atomic mass of C) + 12(atomic mass of H) + 6(atomic mass of O) = 6(12.0 g/mol) + 12(1.0 g/mol) + 6(16.0 g/mol) = 180.0 g/mol.

D) C₈H₁₆O₈:

molecular mass = 8(atomic mass of C) + 16(atomic mass of H) + 8(atomic mass of O) = 8(12.0 g/mol) + 16(1.0 g/mol) + 8(16.0 g/mol) = 240.0 g/mol.

<em>So, the right choice is: C) C₆H₁₂O₆.</em>

Explain how creativity can play a role in the construction of scientific questions and hypotheses.
sweet-ann [11.9K]
Scientific questions and hypotheses come up frequently while one is engaged in investigating a scientific phenomenon such  as natural geological phenomena as may occur in geological mapping in the field. For example, there may be a question does this canyon or deeply incised valley which is quite straight follow a weakness in the earth's crust like a major fault or the direction of bedding in well bedded sedimentary rocks. In a particular topographic area, some hypotheses which may be developed is that valleys follow geological structure whereas ridges follow resistant rocks like quartzites or quartz sandstones or in the ocean, points or capes may represent resistant quartz sandstones and bays may represent weak soft shales recessively weathering

How many moles of water are formed when 22 mol of methane combusts?
icang [17]
Methane is a hydrocarbon which when burns in air (combustion) produces carbon dioxide and water. The equation for the reaction;
CH4 +2O2 = CO2 +2H2O
When one mole of methane combusts 2 moles of water are formed
Therefore; when 22 moles of methane combusts 44 moles of water are formed (22 ×2)

A weighed piece of magnesium ribbon is added to a dried crucible, which is reweighed and heated in air to form the compound MgO.
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

One of the errors for low percentage of magnesium could be because not all the magnesium may have reacted.

Explanation:

During the heating process, if the magnesium have not reacted completely, it can lead to low percentage of magnesium in the oxide formed. The product may still look a bit greyish rather than whitish after the heating process.
