Answer:

C₂H₅O₂

Explanation:

The empirical formula, is the reduced formula of a compound, with the elements followed by its smallest possible number of moles.

First, let's calculated the number of moles of each element. The molar masses are:

C = 12 g/mol, H = 1 g/mol, O = 16 g/mol

The number of moles is the mass divided by molar mass, so :

nC = 330/12 = 27.5

nH = 69.5/1 = 69.5

nO = 440.4/16 = 27.5

To have the empirical formula, let's divide all the number of moles for the smallest: 27.5

nC = 27.5/27.5 = 1

nH = 69.5/27.5 = 2.5

nO = 27.5/27.5 = 1

The empirical formula can't have  fractional numbers, so let's multiply all the numbers for 2

nC = 2

nH = 5

nO = 2

The empirical formula is

C₂H₅O₂

Which is one characteristic of hurricanes?
siniylev [52]

Given the following choices, determine which best suits as a characteristic of a hurricane.

Answer Choices:

A. Hurricanes occur mostly inland

B. Hurricanes create widespread damage

C. Hurricanes can only last for a short amount of time

D. Hurricanes gain strength after passing overland

Best Answer: B. Hurricanes can create widespread damage.

Reason: A would not be correct since it is more of a variable, due to the fact that hurricanes usually begin near the coastlines, hurricanes are in fact capable of moving inland for atleast 100 miles before it dies down to a tropical storm or depression.

C is not correct since hurricanes can last up to a whole week which is approximately 168 hours.

D is not correct since it is another variable in which hurricanes can decrease in strength if it comes into contact with cool and dry air which is the opposite of warm and moist which it needs in order to occur.

Therefore, the best choice is B. Hurricanes can create widespread damage, hurricanes can unleash a staggering arsenal of mother nature's strength and the most damage a hurricane has caused can go up to 125 billion USD in damages.

If a test yields consistent results every time it is used, it has a high degree of...
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:Reliability

Explanation:

Reliability of a test refers to how consistently a test measures a characteristic under the same conditions.

Reliability can be defined as the degree of consistency of which a chemical test gives a similar result. measure. A test is said to be highly reliable when it gives the same repeated result under the same conditions of measure.

But when a test gives different results under the same condition of measure it has a low reliability.

Hence, If a test yields consistent results every time it is used, it has a high degree of reliability.

Do x-rays travel slower than infrared
OleMash [197]
No, x-rays do not travel slower than infrared radiation or even the opposite. Both are travelling in vacuum therefore they travel at same speed. They differ in the frequency of the electromagnetic waves.
