Answer:
NiO
Explanation:
Firstly, we need to know the mass of oxygen used up. This is the difference between the mass of the nickel and the mass of the oxide. This is : 2.852 - 2.241 = 0.611g
Now we convert these masses to mole by dividing by their atomic masses. The atomic mass of oxygen is 16 while that of nickel is 59
O = 0.611/16 = 0.0381875
Ni = 2.241/59 = 0.037983050847458
The next thing is to divide each by the smaller number of moles, which is that of the nickel.
O = 0381875 /0.037983050847458= 1
Ni= 0.037983050847458/0.037983050847458= 1
The empirical formula is thus NiO
Answer: Carbon
Explanation: Organic compounds are those made by carbon atoms that link to other carbon or elements such as nitrogen, hydrogen or oxygen with covalent bonds.
The presence of these compounds were associated with living things, because most of them are produced by plants or animals. However nowdays substances like polymers and other synthetically made molecules can also be considered as organic since they are made of carbon.
Evaporation is a phase transition from the liquid phase to the gas phase that occurs at temperatures below the boiling point at a given pressure.
hope this helps :)
