Answer:
C2H3O2
Explanation:
Empirical formula is defined as the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms present in a molecule. To solve this question we need to convert the percentage of each atom to moles using molar mass. With the moles of each atom we can find the ratio:
<em>Moles C -Molar mass: 12.01g/mol-</em>
40.68g * (1mol/12.01g) = 3.387 moles C
<em>Moles H-Molar mass:1g/mol-:</em>
5.12g * (1mol/1g) = 5.12 moles H
<em>Moles O -Molar mass: 16g/mol-</em>
54.19g * (1mol/16g) = 3.387 moles O
Ratio of atoms (Dividing in moles of C that are the lower number of moles):
C = 3.387 moles C / 3.387moles C = 1
H = 5.12moles H / 3.387moles C = 1.5
O = 3.387moles O / 3.387 moles C = 1
This ratio twice (To have only whole-numbers):
C = 2
H = 3
O = 2
Empirical formula of succinic acid:

Answer:
Be2^+
Explanation:
Ionic diameter increases down the group. This implies that Be2^+ will have the smallest diameter.
This extremely small diameter makes Be2^+ to differ considerably from other ions of group 2 elements.
For instance, the compounds of beryllium are mostly covalent in nature.
Answer: Every enzyme has a specific name that can give us insight into the specific reaction that that enzyme can catalyze. We divide them into six different categories.
1) Oxidoreductase - includes two different types of reactions by transferring electrons from either molecule A to B or vice versa. It is involved in oxidizing electrons away from a molecule.
2) Hydrolase - uses water to divide a molecule into two other molecules.
3) Transferase - you move some functional group X from molecule B to molecule A
4) Ligase - catalyzes reactions between two molecules, A and B, that are combining to form a complex between the two. (example: DNA replication)
5) Lyase - divides a molecule into two other molecules without using water and without reducing or oxidation
The answer is 1.6 atm. Let's first calculate the mole fraction of gas Y.
The mole fraction (x) is: x = n1/n, where n1 is a number of moles of an
individual gas in a mixture and n is total moles of the gas mixture. We
know that n1 of gas Y is 6.0 mol (n1 = 6.0 mol) and that there are in
total 8. mol of the gas mixture (n = 2.0 + 6.0 = 8.0 mol). Now calculate
the mole fraction of gas Y. x = 6.0/8.0 = 0.75. Now, let's use the mole
fraction of gas Y (x) and the total pressure (P) to calculate the
partial pressure of gas Y (P1): x = P1/P. P1 = x * P. If x = 0.75 and P =
2.1 atm, then the partial pressure of gas Y is: P1 = 0.75 * 2.1 atm =
1.6 atm.
B. It has the highest pH so it is the most basic, thus containing the highest concentration of hydroxide ions.
