Answer:

C6H12O6.

Explanation:

Adding up the relative atomic masses of the elements

C + 2H + O

= 12 + 2*1 + 16.

= 30.

180 / 30 = 6  so the molecular formula is:

C6H12O6.

forsale [732]
<span>Bases and Acids are chemically opposite from each other,and there are multiple ways to distinguish how they react when dissolved in water. One accepted definition is that an acid is any chemical substance that, when it is dissolved in water, creates a solution with hydrogen ion activity greater than pure/neutral water. That is, it donates a proton to the solution. Any substance with a pH less than 7.0 is an acid, and includes substances such as vinegar and lemon juice. By comparison, a base is any chemical substance that, when it is dissolved in water, creates a solution in which has hydrogen ion activity less than pure/neutral water. That is, it accepts protons. Any substance with a pH greater than 7.0 is a base, and includes substances such as ammonia and baking soda.</span>

Savatey [412]

Answer:

leave little space between the molecules.

Explanation:

Matter is made up of small particles called molecules. These molecules present in matter are arranged inside its bulk.

In liquids and solids, the molecules are arranged very close together in such a way that there is only a little space between them. This is why liquids and solids are referred to as "condensed phases".

They are quite unlike gases where there is a lot of space between gas molecules.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Carbon

Explanation:

Carbon has four electrons in its valence shell, so it generally shares it in a covalent bond. This element needs four electrons to be stable, so it can form single (such as the bond with hydrogen), double (such as the bond with oxygen) or triple bonds (such as the bond with nitrogen).

It can also form bonds with other carbon, and they can form longs chains, that's why there are a lot of organic compounds (the compounds with carbon). Carbon can form rings too, such as in benzene.

A balloon inflated in a room at 25oC has a volume of 3.00 L. If the balloon is heated at a constant pressure, at what temperatur
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

596K

Explanation:

Using Charles law equation;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Where;

V1 = initial volume (L)

V2 = final volume (L)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to the information provided in this question,

V1 = 3.00 L

V2 = double of V1 = 2 × 3.00 = 6.00 L

T1 = 25°C = 25 + 273 = 298K

T2 = ?

Using V1/T1 = V2/T2

3/298 = 6/T2

Cross multiply

298 × 6 = 3 × T2

1788 = 3T2

T2 = 1788 ÷ 3

T2 = 596K
