How do two elements change properties when they form a compound
S_A_V [24]
In most cases, when two elements form a compound, the new compound has a set of chemical properties that are entirely different from its reactants. However, in the case of diatomic compounds, such as O2, then yes, the compound retains the properties of its elemental parts.

Neither n2 nor o2 are greenhouse gases because
Katyanochek1 [597]

Neither N₂ or O₂ are greenhouses gases because they do not cause the greenhouse effect.

<h3>What are greenhouses gases?</h3>

Greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere causing the temperature of the planet to rise.

Greenhouse gases cause the greenhouse effect.

<h3>What is the greenhouse effect?</h3>

The greenhouse effect is the warming up of the planet due to greenhouse gases.

Greenhouse gases include

  • carbondioxide
  • methane
  • nitrous oxide and
  • water vapour

So, neither N₂ or O₂ are greenhouses gases because they do not cause the greenhouse effect.

Which of the following statements is correct?
Vanyuwa [196]
I would say that children need adults to be responsible leaders. For example, my son has a developmental disability which means things must be done just so for him to feel comfortable. Yesterday, we wanted to meet up with my wife who was at the beach. He goes with me on the weekend to help him with his errands etc. So we went to her sports brella but she was swimming. So he wanted to go to the usual place he gets his fish and chips at another nearby place and also where he usually swims. So we left and went to that place. Then my wife called that where were we? So i said we will be back. So finally, once he got his food, I drove us back to meet my wife (instead of having him swim in his usual place). I was I believe using leadership so we could be together as a family and taking the chance that he would be okay with swimming at the other beach, and it worked out.

A 0.2500 g sample of a compound known to contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen undergoes complete combustion to produce 0.3664 gra
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

C₂H₅O₂

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of compound = 0.25 g

Mass of CO₂ = 0.3664 g

Mass of H₂O = 0.15 g

Empirical formula =?

Next, we shall determine the mass of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen present in the compound. This can be obtained as follow:

For Carbon (C):

Mass of CO₂ = 0.3664 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (2×16) = 44 g/mol

Mass of C = 12/44 × 0.3664

Mass of C = 0.1

For Hydrogen (H):

Mass of H₂O = 0.15 g

Molar mass of H₂O = (2×1) + 16 = 18 g/mol

Mass of H = 2/18 × 0.15

Mass of H = 0.02 g

For Oxygen (O):

Mass of C = 0.1 g

Mass of H = 0.02 g

Mass of compound = 0.25 g

Mass of O =?

Mass of O = (Mass of compound) – (Mass of C + Mass of H)

Mass of O = 0.25 – (0.1 + 0.02)

Mass of O = 0.25 –0.12

Mass of O = 0.13 g

Finally, we shall determine the empirical formula for the compound. This can be obtained as follow:

C = 0.1

H = 0.02

O = 0.13

Divide by their molar mass

C = 0.1 / 12 = 0.0083

H = 0.02 / 1 = 0.02

O = 0.13 / 16 = 0.0081

Divide by the smallest

C = 0.0083 / 0.0081 = 1

H = 0.02 / 0.0081 = 2.47

O = 0.008 / 0.008 = 1

Multiply by 2 to express in whole number

C = 1 × 2 = 2

H = 2.47 × 2 = 5

O = 1 × 2 = 2

Thus, the empirical formula for the compound is C₂H₅O₂
