Answer is: coefficient is one.
Chemical reaction: SiO₂ + 4HF → SiF₄ + 2H₂O.
Reaction is balanced when there are equal numbers of elements in both side of the chemical reaction.
HF - hydrofluoric acid, <span>highly corrosive, dissolves many materials.</span>
SiF₄ - silicon tetrafluoride.

Answer:

1

Explanation:

Chemical reaction: SiO₂ + 4HF → SiF₄ + 2H₂O.

In front of the silica there is no number which makes it an automatic 1.

If a buffer solution is 0.190 m in a weak acid (ka = 8.2 × 10-5) and 0.590 m in its conjugate base, what is the ph?\
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
<span>You use the Henderson - Hasselbalch equation pH = pKa + log ([salt]/[acid]) pKa = -log (8.2*10^-5) = 4.081 pH = 4.081 + (0.590/0.190) pH = 4.081 + log 3.105 pH = 4.081 + 0.49206 pH = 4.573</span>

What is the molecular formula for a compound that is 44.87% potassium, 36.7%
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Molecular formula: S4K8O16  empirical formula: SK2O4

Explanation:

First we find the moles of each by first finding grams (using the percent) and then using stoichiometry to convert into moles:

Sulfur: 696 *.18 = 125.28grams S* \frac{1 mole S}{32.065 g S} = 3.907 moles S

Potassium: 696 *.4487 = 312.2952 *\frac{1 mole K}{39.08 g K}= 7.99117 mole K

Oxygen: 696 * .367 = 255.432 * \frac{1 mol O}{16g O} = 15.9654 mole O

Then we divide each value by the atom with the smallest number of moles to find the mole ratio:

3.907/3.907= 1

7.99117 mole K/ 3.907= 2.043

15.9654 mole O/ 3.907= 4.08

The empirical formula is SK2O4

To find the molecular formula, we divide the mass given (696) by the mass of the empirical formula (174.22) to get 4. We then divide each atom by 4.

Molecular formula: S4K8O16
