The heat required to completely melt the given substance, platinum, we just have to convert first the given mass in mole and multiply the answer to its molar heat of fusion..
Hf = mass x (1/molar mass) x molar heat of fusion
Hf = (85.5 g) x (1 mole/195.08 g) x 4.70 kcal/mol
Hf = 2.06 kcal
The empirical formula CH₂O has a mass [(12 × 1) + (1 × 2) + (16 × 1)] = 30 g/mol
If the empirical formula is 30 g/mol,
and the molecular formula is 60 g/mol
Then the multiple is = 60 g/mol ÷ 30 g/mol
= 2
Therefor the molecular formula is 2(CH₂O) = C₂H₄O₂ (OPTION 2)
It creates oxygen which every living thing needs to live. i hope this helps! :)
They must obey the Law of Conservation of Mass that states that matter cannot be created or destroyed, it is conserved. Atoms are never lost or gained in chemical reactions, they are rearranged. The mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the products.
