Answer:

$C_6H_{15}O_6$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, one computes the molar mass for the given empirical formula as follows:

$M_{empirical}=12*2+1*5+16*2=61g/mol$

In such a way, one computes how many times the molecular formula's molecular mass is contained into the empirical formula's molecular mass in order to determine the whole number relating them as shown below:

$\frac{183.2g/mol}{61g/mol}=3$

Finally, the molecular formula is three times the empirical formula, hence:

$C_6H_{15}O_6$

Best regards.

Yes. It is made from baking soda and shaving cream but shaving cream is a constant. You could use things like corn flour instead of baking soda.

An atom has a nucleus that has mass and volume. How does the mass of the nucleus compare to the mass of the atom? How does the v

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The mass of the nucleus is almost the same as the atom because a majority of the mass of an atom is stored in the nucleus.

The volume of an atom is larger than the nucleus. The nucleus is a tiny, concentrated area inside of the atom. Atoms are mostly empty space inside.

Which statement is correct regarding the reaction below? 3A + 2B yields C + 2D The rate of formation of D is twice the rate of d

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The correct statements are:

The rate of disappearance of B is twice the rate of appearance of C.

Explanation:

Rate of the reaction is a change in the concentration of any one of the reactant or product per unit time.

3A + 2B → C + 2D

Rate of the reaction:

$R=-\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{d[A]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{d[B]}{dt}$

$-\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{d[A]}{dt}=\frac{1}{1}\times \frac{d[C]}{dt}$

$-\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{d[A]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{d[D]}{dt}$

The rate of disappearance of B is twice the rate of appearance of C.

$\frac{1}{1}\times \frac{d[C]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{d[B]}{dt}$

$2\times \frac{1}{1}\times \frac{d[C]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{1}\times \frac{d[B]}{dt}$
