Explanation:
In a covalent bond the electrons are simultaneously attracted by the two atomic nuclei.
Answer:
C₃H₄O₄
Explanation:
In order to get the empirical formula of a compound, we have to follow a series of steps.
Step 1: Divide the percent by mass of each element by its atomic mass.
C: 34.6/12.01 = 2.88
H: 3.9/1.01 = 3.86
O: 61.5/16.00 = 3.84
Step 2: Divide all the numbers by the smallest one, i.e., 2.88
C: 2.88/2.88 = 1
H: 3.86/2.88 ≈ 1.34
O: 3.84/2.88 ≈ 1.33
Step 3: Multiply all the numbers by a number that makes all of them integer
C: 1 × 3 = 3
H: 1.34 × 3 = 4
O: 1.33 × 3 = 4
The empirical formula is C₃H₄O₄.
Answer:
2.17
Explanation:
To calculate pH using the hygrogen ion concentration we must use the following formula:
- log (H+) = pH
All we have to do now is plug in our hygrogen ion concentration and put it in our calculator.
- log (6.8 × 10⁻³) = 2.17
Don't forget proper figures for pH!
Answer:
Decreases
Explanation:
The atmospheric pressure on the surface of the mercury pushes it up the evacuated tube until the downward pressure of the mercury equals the atmospheric pressure.
If the atmospheric pressure decreases, the mercury doesn't have to rise as high.
The mercury height decreases.
