In a chemical process, you need to force a compound to bond with a halogen, causing it to lose hydrogen. Which type of reaction
Kazeer [188]
Answer is Halogenation because Halogenation is a type of substitution reaction in which a hydrogen atom is replaced by a halogen atom in a molecule.
The molecule looses its hydrogen atom as the halogen is introduced into the molecule. This sort of reaction is very common in organic chemistry. Many hydrocarbons can be halogenated in the presence of light.

Why do you think scientist can use the basic properties of matter to help identify an unknown substance?
deff fn [24]

They can use the properties to test and come to some kind of conslusion about the object because in some way it's gotta correlate back to one of the different properties of matter.

The empirical formula is the simplest formula of a chemical compound.

To find the empirical formula, we take the following steps;

  • Divide the percentage by mass of each element by its relative atomic mass.
  • Divide the quotient of each by the lowest value obtained instep 1 above
  • Write the result of step 2 above as the subscript following each atom.

1) O - 88.10/16,      H - 11.190/1

  O - 5.5,               H - 11.19

  O - 5.5/5.5,        H - 11.19/5.5

  O -  1,                 H - 2

Empirical formula = OH2

2) C - 41.368/12  H - 8.101/1,   N - 32.162/14,   O - 18.369/16

   C - 3,               H - 8,           N - 2,                  O - 1

   C - 3/1,            H - 8/1          N - 2/1                 O - 1/1

    C - 3,             H - 8,           N - 2,                   O - 1

Empirical formula = C3H8N2O

To obtain the molecular formula where n = number of atoms of each element;

Molecular weight = 174.204 g/mol

[ 3(12) + 8(1) + 2(14) + 16]n = 174

n= 174/88

n = 2 (to the nearest whole number)

Hence, we have;

[C3H8N2O]2

The molecular formula is C6H16N4O2

3)  C - 19.999/12,  H - 6.713/1,   N - 46.646/14,   O - 26.641/16

    C - 2,                H - 7,            N -  3,                 O - 2

    C - 2/2,            H - 7/2,         N -   3/2,             O - 2/2

    C - 1,                H - 4,            N -  2,                  O - 1

Empirical formula - CH4N2O
