Hello! Your answer is C, one atom of iron and three atoms of chlorine.

In this case, there is some ambiguity with "Cl". It could be C + I, or Cl. (One being carbon + iodine and the other Chlorine). However, we can see that the only choice that mentions iodine states two atoms, which is incorrect, as if it was iodine, the 3 indicates that there would be three atoms.

Therefore, Cl must be chlorine. If you look at choice C, there are three atoms of chlorine, as indicated by the 3 at the end of the Cl. There is also one molecule of Fe, as there is no number at the end of it so there has to be only one.

B is not correct, as carbon would be only "C". A is not correct as a molecule is a collection of atoms bonded together, therefore, this compound could be named a molecule, but there are not multiple molecules inside this compound.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

C(one atom of iron and three atoms of chlorine

Explanation:

one atom of iron = Fe

three atoms of chlorine  = Cl₃

Fe²⁺ +  3Cl⁻ → FeCl₃

Liquid nitrogen has a density of 0.808 g/mL and boils at 77 K. Researchers often purchase liquid nitrogen in insulated 185 L tan
Serga [27]

Answer:

37.14 %

Explanation:

Using the equation, mass, M = D1 * V1

= D2 * V2

Where,

D1 = density of the liquid Nitrogen

D2 = density of gaseous Nitrogen

V1 = volume of the liquid Nitrogen

V2 = volume of the gaseous Nitrogen

Calculating V2,

0.808 * 185 = 1.15 * V2

Volume of Nitrogen after expansion = 129.98 m3.

Volume = L * b * h

= 10 * 10 * 3.5

Volume of the room = 350 m3.

Fraction of air = volume of Nitrogen after expansion/volume of the room * 100

= 129.98/350 *100

= 37.14 %

You perform a combustion analysis on a 255 mg sample of a substance that contains only C, H, and O, and you find that 561 mg of
zhuklara [117]
The combustion of an organic compound is mostly written as,
                        CaHbOc + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
where a, b, and c are supposed to be the subscripts of the elements C, H, and O in the compound. Determining the number of moles of C and H in the product which is the same as that in the compound,
   (Carbon, C)   :   (561 mg) x (12/44) = 153 mg x (1 mmole/12 mg) = 12.75
   (Hydrogen, H) :  (306 mg) x (2/18)  = 34 mg x (1 mmole/1 mg) = 34 
   Calculating for amount of O in the sample,
(oxygen, O) = 255 - 153 mg - 34 mg = 68 mg x (1mmole/16 mg) = 4.25 
The empirical formula is therefore,
                        C(51/4)H34O17/4
                           C3H8O1
The molar mass of the empirical formula is 60. Therefore, the molecular formula of the compound is,
                                C9H24O3
