Answer:

C₂H₈N₄O₆ is the molecular formula for the compound

Explanation:

Data from the problem:

13 g of C in 100 g of compound

4.3 g of H in 100 g of compound

30.4 g of N in 100 g of compound

52.2 g of O in 100 g of compound

Firstly we determine, the mass of each in 184 g of compound, which is 1 mol

(13 g / 100 g) . 184 g  = 24 g C

(4.3 g  / 100 g) . 184 g  = 7.91 g H ≅ 8 g H

(30.4 g / 100 g) . 184 g  = 56 g N

(52.2 g  / 100 g) . 184 g  = 96 g O

And now, we divide the mass by the molar mass of each to determine the moles:

24 g C / 12 g/mol = 2 mol C

8g H / 1 g/mol = 8 mol H

56 g N / 14 g/mol = 4 mol N

96 g O / 16 g/mol = 6 mol O

So the molecular formula of the compound is C₂H₈N₄O₆

How does the electron-cloud model describe electrons?
Sav [38]

Answer:

C. An electron has a high probability of being in certain regions.

Explanation:

In the electron cloud model, there are no electron-orbits around the nucleus but a cloud. This cloud has various densities with respect to distance from the nucleus. The most dense region of the cloud (which is the region close to the nucleus) is where electrons has the highest probability of existence.

The model explains that an electron a greater chance of being in the region closer to the nucleus. Thus, an electron has a high probability of being in certain region of the cloud about the central nucleus. And an electrostatic force exists between the nucleus and the electrons.

Draw the product formed when cyclohexene is reacted with H2 in the presence of Pt. Note: If adding hydrogen atoms to a carbon at
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

It has been drawn and uploaded as an attachment. Please download it to see the structure.

Explanation:

The product formed as a result of the reaction of cyclohexene with H2​ in presence of Pt (platinum) can be described as catalytic hydrogenation. Catalytic hydrogenation is defined as the process of hydrogen addition in the presence of a catalyst, which in this case is platinum.

Note that Cyclohexene (alkene) is a hydrocarbon molecule represented by the chemical formula, C6​H10​ .

It consists of a double bond. During the hydrogenation reaction, the alkene undergoes an addition reaction to give alkane which is a saturated hydrocarbon as the product.

The first step in order to derive the product is to draw the chemical structure of cyclohexene and identify the double bond present in it.

The final product can be derived by replacing the double bond with the single bond and satisfying all the valences of the carbon atom. The final product structure has been drawn and uploaded as an attachment. Please download it to see the structure.

Ans:

The structure of the cyclohexane thus, formed has been shown as follows with all the hydrogen atoms:

What observation did Rutherford make from his gold-foil experiment which
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

A piece of gold foil was hit with alpha particles, which have a positive charge. Most alpha particles went right through. This showed that the gold atoms were mostly empty space. Some particles had their paths bent at large angles. A few even bounced backward. The only way this would happen was if the atom had a small, heavy region of positive charge inside it.

What do you think is meant by the statement "the digestive system is very different
Kryger [21]
It could possibly refer to “the small intestines absorb most of the nutrients in food, and your circulatory system passes them on to other parts of your body to store or use. Special cells help absorbed nutrients cross intestinal lining into your bloodstream” hope this helps Good luck
