To determine the empirical formula of the compound given, we need to determine the ratio of each element in the compound. To do that we assume to have 100 grams sample of the compound with the given composition. Then, we calculate for the number of moles of each element. We do as follows:<span>
         mass        moles
C       56.79        4.73
H       6.56          6.50
O       28.37        1.77
N      8.28           0.59

Dividing the number of moles of each element with the smallest value, we will have the empirical formula:

</span>         moles                 ratio
C       4.73     / 0.59       8
H       6.50     / 0.59      11
O       1.77     / 0.59       3
N        0.59    / 0.59       1<span>
</span><span>
The empirical formula would be C8H11O3N.</span>

DUE IN 30 MINUTES!!! (please keep it short if you can, if not its ok.) What is the molar mass of Pb(SO4)2? Explain how you calcu
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

399

Explanation:

Pb(SO4)2 contains 1 atom of Pb, 2 atoms of S and 8 atoms of O. So, atomic mass of Pb(SO4)2 is 207 + 64 + 128 = 399 u. Therefore, molar mass of Pb(SO4)2 is 399 g/mol.HOPE THIS helps. Good Luck

One radioactive isotope of calcium has an atomic mass of 47,how many neutrons are in the calcium -47 nucleus
jekas [21]

Answer: 27 neutrons

Explanation:

Recall that the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom = Atomic number.

Hence, Calcium with mass number 47 and atomic number 20 will have 20 protons

Therefore, since Mass number = number of protons + neutrons

47 = 20 + neutrons

Neutrons = 47 - 20 = 27

Thus, there are 27 neutrons in radioactive calcium nucleus.

Why do rivers have deltas?
Leokris [45]

Answer:

A delta is formed when the river deposits its material faster than the sea can remove it. ... Cuspate - the land around the mouth of the river juts out arrow-like into the sea. The Ebro Delta. Bird's foot - the river splits on the way to the sea, each part of the river juts out into the sea, rather like a bird's foot.

I hope it's helpful!

A 12.0% sucrose solution by mass has a density of 1.05 gem, what mass of sucrose is present in a 32.0-mL sample of this solution
natulia [17]

Answer:

Option C. 4.03 g

Explanation:

Firstly we analyse data.

12 % by mass, is a sort of concentration. It indicates that in 100 g of SOLUTION, we have 12 g of SOLUTE.

Density is the data that indicates grams of solution in volume of solution.

We need to determine, the volume of solution for the concentration

Density = mass / volume

1.05 g/mL = 100 g / volume

Volume =  100 g / 1.05 g/mL → 95.24 mL

Therefore our 12 g of solute are contained in 95.24 mL

Let's finish this by a rule of three.

95.24 mL contain 12 g of sucrose

Our sample of 32 mL may contain ( 32 . 12) / 95.24 = 4.03 g
