<u>Answer:</u> The molecular formula of compound is C_6H_6O_6

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Empirical formula of compound = CHO

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

n=\frac{\text{Molecular mass}}{\text{Empirical mass}}

We are given:

Mass of molecular formula = 180 g/mol

Mass of empirical formula = 29 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

n=\frac{180g/mol}{29g/mol}=6.20\approx 6

Multiplying this valency by the subscript of every element of empirical formula, we get:

C_{(1\times 6)}H_{(1\times 6)}O_{(1\times 6)}=C_6H_6O_6

Hence, the molecular formula of compound is C_6H_6O_6

Where are the electrons inside an atom?
Nataly [62]

Answer: B.They are arranged in energy levels

Explanation: Electrons orbit around the nucleus of an atom, and are not spread around equally throughout an atom because there are a different amount of electrons that can fit in each energy level or electron shell (both are the same thing). For example the first energy level can hold up to 2 electrons, the second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, the third can hold up to 18, and so on represented by the equation 2(n^2)

A mercury lamp emits radiation with a frequency of 5.62 x1024 Hz. Calculate the wavelength of
Nitella [24]

Answer:

wavelength = 0.534×10⁻¹⁶ m

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency of wave = 5.62 ×10²⁴ Hz

Wavelength = ?

Solution:

Speed of photon = wavelength × frequency

wavelength = speed of photon / frequency

Now we will put the values in formula:

wavelength = 3×10⁸ m/s / 5.62 ×10²⁴ Hz

Hz = s⁻¹

wavelength = 3×10⁸ m/s / 5.62 ×10²⁴ s⁻¹

wavelength = 0.534×10⁻¹⁶ m

Please solve this problem. IT IS TOO URGENT ‍♂️​
kirill [66]

Answer:

1. Sulphuric acid

2. Car battery acid

3. Washing up liquid

4. Milk of magnesia

5. Metal polish

6. Oven cleaner

Explanation:

Universal paper can determine the pH of a solution. It ranges from dark red (pH 0 - very acidic) to orange/yellow, to green (pH 7 - neutral) to blue, dark blue and purple (pH 14 - very alkaline)

Sulphuric acid has the lowest pH as the universal indicator is red.

The next is car battery acid which is pink - not as acidic as red.

The next is washing up liquid, which is yellow, around pH 3 or 4.

The next is milk of magnesia with light blue, around pH 9 or 10.

Metal polish is dark blue - around pH 11.

Oven cleaner is the darkest, with purple.
