You see a solid that looks like an ice cube, but it does not melt at room temperature. Can the solid be frozen water? Explain.

No, the solid can not be frozen water. This is because water has a melting point of 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Room temperature is well above 32 degrees, so the solid would have begun to melt. Since the solid was not melting, we can infer that it is not water.

Explain why ethics and skepticism are integral to science.

sdas [7]

Ethics and Skepticism are integral to science because they are the basis for the need to lay explanations on various fields of science through experiment. This will enable science bring the right data and arguments through scientific methods in an accurate and a straight forward manner.

Hope this helped have an awesome day :)

When a 3.00 grams sample of a compound containing only c, h, and o was completely burned, 1.17 grams of h2o and 2.87 grams of co

Answer:- $CH_2O_2$

Solution:- From given masses of carbon dioxide and water we could calculate the moles that helps to calculate the moles of C and H.

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 gram per mol

molar mass of water = 18.02 gram per mol

From given info, combustion of compound gives 1.17 grams of water and 2.87 grams of carbon dioxide. Let's calculate the moles of these:

$1.17gH_2O(\frac{1mol}{18.02g})$

= $0.0649molH_2O$

Similarly, $2.87gCO_2(\frac{1mol}{44g})$

= $0.0652molCO_2$

One mol of water has two moles of H. So, the moles of H would be two times the moles of water as calculated above.

So, moles of H = 2* 0.0649 = 0.1298 mol

One mol of carbon dioxide contains one mol of C. So, the moles of C would be equal to the moles of carbon dioxide calculated above.

moles of C = 0.0652 mol

Let's convert the moles of H and C to grams so that we could calculate the amount of oxygen present in the sample as:

grams of H in sample = 1.008 x 0.1298 = 0.1308 g

grams of C in sample = 12*0.0652 = 0.7824 g

If we subtract the sum of the masses of C and H from sample mass then it would give as the mass of oxygen since the sample has only C, H and O.

mass of O in sample = 3.00g - (0.1308 g + 0.7824 g)

= 3.00 g - 0.9132 g

= 2.0868 g

Let's convert these grams of oxygen to moles on dividing by it's atomic mass as:

$2.0868gO(\frac{1mol}{15.999g})$

= 0.130 mol O

Now, we have the moles of all the three atoms and we know that an empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of the moles of atoms. So, let's calculate the ratio. For this, we divide the moles of each by the least one of them.Looking at the moles, the least value is for carbon. So, let's divide the moles of each by the moles of C as:

C = $\frac{0.0652}{0.0652}$ = 1

H = $\frac{0.1298}{0.0652}$ = 2

O = $\frac{0.130}{0.0652}$ = 2

The ratio of C, H and O is 1:2:2. So, the simplest formula of the compound is $CH_2O_2$ .
