Answer:

FeCl_{3}

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

mass of Fe = 55.85 g

Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol

<u>Moles of Fe = 55.85 / 55.85 = 1</u>

mass of Cl = 106.5 g

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Moles of Cl = 106.5 / 35.5 = 3

Taking the simplest ratio for Fe and Cl as:

1 : 3

The empirical formula is = FeCl_{3}

What is 30-9x2*2-21-4+4
IgorC [24]
Answer:
9 (1-2x²)

Explanation:
The given expression is:
30 - 9x²*2 - 21 - 4 + 4
The first step is to compute the multiplication. This will give:
30 - 18x² - 21 - 4 + 4
Then, we will add like terms as follows:
(30-21-4+4) - 18x²
= 9 - 18x²
Finally, we can take the 9 as a common factor from both terms, this will give:
9 (1-2x²)

Hope this helps :)

You used a calorimeter in the heat transfer lab. Explain how the calorimeter works, and how to calculate the heat given off or a
Olenka [21]
A calorimeter contains reactants and a substance to absorb the heat absorbed. The initial temperature (before the reaction) of the heat absorbent is measured and then the final temperature (after the reaction) is also measured. The absorbent's specific heat capacity and mass are also known. Given all of this data, the equation:
Q = mcΔT 
To find the heat released.

λmax for the π → π* transition in ethylene is 170 nm. Is the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene greater than or less than t
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene

Explanation:

The λmax is the wavelength of maximum absorption. We could use it to calculate the HOMO-LUMO energy difference as follows:

For ethylene

E= hc/λ= 6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/170×10^-9= 1.17×10^-18J

For cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene

E= hc/λ=6.63×10^-34×3×10^8/230×10^-9=8.6×10^-19J

Therefore, the HOMO-LUMO energy difference in ethylene is greater than that of cis,trans−1,3−cyclooctadiene
