Answer:

It will decrease the pH of the water.

Explanation:

When carbon dioxide gets dissolved in water, it changes its pH.

The pH of water will become acidic.

In dissolved state, carbon dioxide forms carbonic acid with water as shown in the equation.

H_{2}O+CO_{2}--->H_{2}CO_{3}

This carbonic acid gets dissociated as shown in equation.

H_{2}CO_{3}--->2H^{+}+CO_{3}^{-2}

Due to increase in concentration of hydrogen ion, the pH of water decreases.

If a molecule has an empirical formula of C2H2O and a molecular mass of 84.0 g/mol, what is the molecular formula?
lord [1]

Answer:

=C₄H₄O₂

Explanation:

Given the empirical formula of a molecule, the he the quotient of the molecular mas and and the empirical mass=constant.

84.0 g/mol/mass of(C₂H₂O)=constant

=84/(12×2+1×2×16)

=84/42

=2

Therefore, the molecular formula is (C₂H₂O)₂=C₄H₄O₂
