132 g of C , 22 g of H , 176 g of O

132 + 22 + 176 => 330 g of the substance

Now convert the masses in moles :

C = 12.0 u H = 1.0 u O = 16.0 u

C = 132 / 12.0 => 11 moles

H = 22 / 1.0 => 22 moles

O = 176 / 16.0 => 11 moles

Using the values obtained the lowest proportion in mols of elements present, simply divide the values found for the least of them:

C = 11 / 11 => 1

H = 22 / 11 => 2

O = 11 / 11 => 1

formula empirically is : CH₂O

hope this helps!

The strength of a covalent bond depends upon the size of the atoms and the bond order. In general short bonds are strong bonds.1

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

Bond energy of (A) C≡C > (B) C=C

and, (C) C=N > (D) C-N

Explanation:

Bond energy refers to the amount of energy required to break a bond or the energy released when a bond is formed. Bond energy of a covalent bond suggests the bond strength of the chemical bond and depends on the bond length and bond order of the chemical bond.

The bond energy of a chemical bond increases with the bond order and decreases with the bond length. As, length of a bond decreases with increase in the bond order.

First pair: (A) C≡C (B) C=C

The bond order of C≡C - 3, the bond order of C=C - 2

Since the bond order: C≡C > C=C

Bond length: C≡C < C=C

Therefore, bond energy of (A) C≡C > (B) C=C

Second pair: (C) C=N (D) C-N

The bond order of C=N - 2, the bond order of C-N - 1

Since the bond order: C=N > C-N

Bond length: C=N < C-N

Therefore, bond energy of (C) C=N > (D) C-N
