40.0 gC x 1 mol C/12.0 gC=3.33 moles of C ----- divide by smallest
6.67 gH x 1 mol H/ 1.0 gH= 6.7 moles of H ------ CH2O= (12 + 2 + 16)= 30g
53.3 gO x 1mol O/ 15.0 gO=3.33 moles of O ----- 150g/30g= 5x
=C5H10O5

What formula can be used to calculate [H30+]
Yuliya22 [10]
[H3O+] is just the same with [H+]. There are quite a few relationships between [H+] and [OH−] ions. And because there is a large range of number between 10 to 10-15 M, the pH is used. pH = -log[H+] and pOH = -log[OH−]. In aqueous solutions, [H+ ][OH- ] = 10-14

The total amount of energy before and after a chemical reaction is the same. Therefore, energy is _____.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor it can be destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another.

Therefore, the total amount of energy before and after a chemical reaction is the same. Thus, energy is conserved.

Therefore, we can conclude that option (a) is the correct answer.

Explain whether hydrogen bonding is present between hydrogen<br><br> fluoride (HF) molecules
Mamont248 [21]

Hydrogen bonding occurs when hydrogen is bonded to an oxygen or nitrogen or fluorine atom. In this case, the hydrogen atom in a hydrogen fluoride molecule will be able to bond to the fluoride atom of another hydrogen fluoride molecule, forming a hydrogen bond.
