Answer:
Lightweight and wrinkle-free, sharkskin is ideal for curtains, tablecloths and napkins. Sharkskin fabric is popular for both men's and women's worsted suits, light winter jackets and coats. Sharkskin is commonly used as a liner in diving suits and wetsuits.
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.
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.
Their is 2 valence electrons
