The empirical formula represents the simplest whole number shows the simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound.  An example of this is the empirical formula for glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is C₃H₆O₃.  

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

Describe what happened when sodium chloride (salt) was placed in water in the video What happens when stuff dissolves?"
Sonja [21]

Answer:

-

Explanation:

Water molecules pull the sodium and chloride ions apart, breaking the ionic bond that held them together. After the salt compounds are pulled apart, the sodium and chloride atoms are surrounded by water molecules, as this diagram shows. Once this happens, the salt is dissolved, resulting in a homogeneous solution.

A pool owner adds a compound containing chlorine to the pool to disinfect it. However, too much of the compound is added. As a r
MrMuchimi

Answer: He could add a base to the pool to neutralize the acid.

Explanation:

Chlorine is used to disinfect the pools as it produces hypochlorous acid in water. This hypochlorous acid is unstable and gives hydrochloric acid and nascent oxygen which is used to disinfect.

Cl_2+H_2O\rightarrow HOCl

HOCl\rightarrow HCl+O

The excess acid is neutralized by adding base which produces salt and water and thus decrease the acidity.

Acid+Base\rightarrow Salt+water

Adding more acid would increase the acidity further.

given the following chemical equation, determine how many grams of N2 are produced by 9.24 of H2O2 nd 6.56g of N2H4
taurus [48]
I think the chemical reaction is:<span>

N2H4 + 2 H2O2-> N2 + 4H2O

We are given the amount reactants allowed to react. This will be the starting point of the reaction. First, is to find the limiting reactant.

9.24 g H2O2 ( 1 mol / 34.02 g ) = 0.27 mol H2O2
6.56  g N2H4 ( 1mol / 32.06) = 0.20 mol N2H4

Since from the reaction we have 1:2 ratio of the reactants then the limiting reactant is hydrogen peroxide. We will use this to find the amount of N2 produced.

0.27 mol H2O2 ( 1 mol N2 / 2 mol H2O2 ) ( 14.01 g N2 / 1 mol N2) =1.89 g N2 </span>
