A gas with an empirical formula C2H2O has a molecular weight of 120.6g/mol. A possible molecular formula for the gas is

Chemistry

Virty [35]3 years ago
7 0

M(C2H2O)= 12.0*2 +1.0*2 +16.0 = 42 g/mol is a molar mass for empirical formula.

120.6g/mol/42g/mol ≈ 3

So, empirical formula should be increased 3 times,

and molecular formula is C6H6O3.

Answer is D.

What is meant by the ground state of an atom? What is meant by the ground state of an atom? All of the quantum numbers have thei
ANTONII [103]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

We know that ground state means in total electrons acquired by the element are present in their lowest energy level.

We calculate the azimutal numbers as follows.

                      n = l + 1

where,     n = principle quantum number  

                l = azimuthal quantum number

Values of n can be 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on. Whereas the values of l can be 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on.

Also, "m" is known as magnetic quantum number whose values can be equal to -l and +l.  

So, when n = 1 then l = 0 and m = 0.

When n = 2 then l = 1 and values of m will be equal to -1, 0, +1. As it is given that the magnetic quantum number ml = -1. Hence, it is only possible when n = 2.

And, n = 1 is the lowest energy level. Therefore, we can conclude that the ground state of an atom means all of the quantum numbers have their lowest values (n = 1,ℓ = mℓ = 0).

Metals can be highly purified using electrolysis. Which equation best reflects the overall process of purifying copper?
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

A. Cu^+2(aq)cathode ---> Cu^+2(aq)anode

Explanation:

Electrolysis is the process in which current is passed through a solution thereby causing a chemical change at the anode and cathode. Copper is being purified using electrolysis by using impure copper at the anode and pure copper at the cathode. This pure and impure copper are placed in a copper(ii)sulfate electrolyte solution and dc current is made to pass through it.  The resulting changes at the anode and cathode are given by the equation:

cathode: Cu²⁺  + 2e⁻    ⇒     Cu

anode:    Cu     ⇒       Cu²⁺  + 2e⁻
