I can't actually answer this one if the empirical formula is not given. Luckily, I've found a similar problem from another website. The problem is shown in the picture attached. It shows that the empirical formula is CH₂O. Let's calculate the molar mass of the empirical formula.

Molar mass of E.F = 12 + 2(1) + 16 = 30 g/mol

Then, let's divide this to the molar mass of the molecular formula.
Molar mass of M.F/Molar mass of E.F = 180/30 = 6

Therefore, let's multiply 6 to each subscript in the empirical formula to determine the actual molecular formula.
Actual molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆

4. Which metals will be able to reduce copper ions in solution?

topjm [15]

4. The metals that would be able to reduce copper ions in solution would be hydrogen(H), lead(Pb), tin(Sb), nickel(Ni), iron(Fe), zinc(Zn), aluminum(Al), Magnesium(Mg), sodium(Na), calcium(Ca), potassium(K), and lithium(Li).

5. If you had a house with both copper- and zinc-galvanized iron water pipes,zinc would be desirable because A metal that is easily oxidized would rust more readily.

At stp which gas will diffuse more readily than ne

pav-90 [236]

I am assuming you are talking about Neon. The rate of diffusion is directly proportional to the molar mass of the gas. Since neon has a molar mass of 20.18 grams, the gas must have a lower molar mass and must be a gas at 273 Kelvin. There are several elements that fulfill this criteria: Hydrogen, Helium, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Fluorine.

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

2 Transfer; very different

Explanation:

Ionic compound are compound that are formed from transfer of electron. The cations donate the electron(s) while the anion receive the electron(s). The compound possess a positively charged end and a negatively charge end. Example of ionic compound is NaCl . The sodium donates one electron to the chlorine to fulfill the octet rule. The sodium atom becomes positively charged as it donate electron to the chlorine atom. The chlorine atom becomes negatively charged as it receive electron from Sodium atom.

The atoms that are involve in forming ionic compound have very different electronegativity . Electronegativity is the measure of the ability of an atom to attract a bond pair of electron. For example the NaCl compound, the two atom has verse differences in the electronegativity. Cl atom is far more electronegative than Sodium atom.

A graduated cylinder was filled with water to the 25.0 mL mark and weighed. Its mass was 105.5g. An object made of an unknown me

Marta_Voda [28]

The answer is 8.9 g/mL.

The density (D) is equal to mass (m) divided by volume (V): D = m/V

Let's find the mass of the object:
m = 156 g - 105.5 g = 50.5 g

Let's find the volume of the volume:
V = 30.7 mL - 25 mL = 5.7 mL

The density is:
D = m/V = 50.5 g / 5.7 mL = 8.9 g/mL
