The building of all the profiles is correct; The total number of electrons is correct, as well as the filling of the shells to their entirety. However, some charge calculations are off. First, we see that sodium loses an electron in its structure. Hence, it acquires a charge of +1, not -1. Also, Fluorine gains 2 electrons in its 2p subshell. Thus, its charge is -2, not -1 and this is wrong too. The only correct answer is C; aluminum lose 3 electrons from its p-shell and hence it has a charge of +3.

A 425.00-gram sample of a compound decomposes into 196.01 grams of carbon, 41.14 grams of hydrogen, 130.56 grams of oxygen, and
Alenkasestr [34]

The molecular formula is D. C_8H_20O_4Si.

<em>Step 1</em>.Calculate the <em>empirical formula </em>

a) Calculate the moles of each element

Moles of C= 196.01 g C × (1 mol C/12.01 g C) = 16.325 mol C  

Moles of H = 41.14 g H × (1 mol H/1.008 g H) = 40.813 mol H

Moles of O = 130.56 g O × (1 mol O/16.00 g O) = 8.1650 mol O

Moles of Si = 57.29 g Si × (1 mol Si/28.085 g Si) = 2.0399 mol Si

b) Calculate the molar ratio of each element

Divide each number by the smallest number of moles and round off to an integer

C:H:O:Si = 8.0027:20.008:4.0027:1 ≈ 8:20:4:1

c) Write the empirical formula

EF = C_8H_20O_4Si

<em>Step </em>2. Calculate the <em>molecular formula</em>

EF Mass = 208.33 u

MF mass = 208.329  u

MF = (EF)_n

n = MF Mass/EF Mass = 208.329 u/208.33 u = 1.0000 ≈ 1

MF = C_8H_20O_4Si

When the total surface area of the solute particles is increased, the solute dissolves more rapidly. Breaking a solute into smaller pieces increases its surface area and increases its rate of solution. So, any answer with “as surface area increases, solid dissolves faster” would be correct. :)

A molecular biologist measures the mass of cofactor a in an average yeast cell. the mass is 41.5 pg . what is the total mass in
Hitman42 [59]
The unit pg stands for pictogram. It is one-trillionth of a gram. Because of the very small mass, it is expressed in the prefix form of the base units for convenience. Now, the mass of cofactor a is 41.5 pg per cell. Since there are a total of 105 cells, the total mass would be:

Total mass = 105 cells * 41.5 pg/cell = 4,357.5 pg
