It's Peggy Sue's birthday and she's about to blow out the candles on her cake. Brother Roger stops the party when he shouts: "Lo

ok at that! Chemical and physical changes taking places on your birthday cake!"
How would you respond to Roger?
A) Roger is incorrect. The melting wax is a physical change but there is no chemical change taking place.
B) Roger is correct. Lighting the match is a chemical change and burning the candles is a physical change.
C) Roger is correct. The melting wax is a physical change and the burning candle wick is a chemical change.
D) Roger is incorrect. Only a chemical change is taking place as evidenced by the light and heat of the burning candles.

How do I do scientific notation
lina2011 [118]
1. First, move the decimal place until you have a number between 1 and 10. If you keep moving the decimal point to the right in 0.0000073 you will get 7.3.
2. Next, count how many places you moved the decimal point.

A sample of a compound contains only the elements sodium, sulfur, and oxygen. it is found by analysis to contain 0.979 g na, 1.3
Aloiza [94]
To determine the empirical formula for the compound that contains <span>0.979 g Na, 1.365 g S, and 1.021 g O, we convert these to mole units. The molar masses to be used are:

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol
</span>Molar mass of S = 32 g/mol
Molar mass of O = 16 g/ mol

The number of moles is obtained using the molar mass for each element.

moles Na = 0.979 g Na/ 23 g/mol Na = 0.04256
moles S = 1.365 g Na/ 32 g/mol Na = 0.04265
moles O = 1.021 g O/ 16 g/mol Na = 0.06326

We then divide each with the smallest number of moles obtained. 

Na: 0.04256/ 0.04256 = 1 
S: 0.04265/ 0.04256 = 1.002 ≈ 1
O: 0.06326/ 0.04256 = 1.49 ≈ 1.5

We then have an empirical formula of NaSO₁.₅. However, chemical formulas must have only integers as subscripts, thus, we multiply each to 2. The empirical formula is then Na₂S₂O₃ also known as sodium thiosulfate.
