Answer:

Molecular formula = C₁₀H₂₀

Explanation:

Given data:

Empirical formula = CH₂

Molar mass = 140.27 g/mol

Molecular formula = ?

Solution:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

Now we will calculate the empirical formula mass.

CH₂ = 12 × 1 + 1× 2

CH₂ = 12 +2

CH₂ = 14  

n = 140.27 / 14

n = 1 0

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 10 (CH₂)

Molecular formula = C₁₀H₂₀

As an ice cube melts on a table top it transforms from a solid bank with a defined shape to a puddle with a much greater ability
jeka94
In a solid state, the molecules have the least amount of energy. They just stick close together and vibrate in place. As the molecules gain more energy, they are able to move around more freely. In the liquid state, the molecules have enough energy to sort of tumble over each other.

Diamonds are measured in carats, and 1 carat=0.200g. The density of diamond is 3.51g/cm^3. What is the volume of a 5.0-carat dia
const2013 [10]
Convert the amount of substance in carat to grams.
                 (5.0 carat) x (0.200 g / 1 carat) = 1 g
The volume of the substance is obtained by dividing the mass by the density,
                             v = m / d
                             v = 1 g / (3.51 g/cm³) = 0.2849 cm³
Therefore, the volume of a 5.0 carat diamond is approximately 0.285 cm³.

What is the approximate value of the equilibrium constant, k n, for the neutralization of acetic acid withsodium hydroxide, show
NikAS [45]
You are given the neutralization of acetic acid with sodium hydroxide. Also, you are given the k for acetic acid, which is 1.8 x 10⁻⁵. You are asked to find the<span> approximate value of the equilibrium constant, kn, for the neutralization. We will have a reaction of both acetic acid and sodium hydroxide.

CH</span>₃COOH + NaOH → CH₃COONa + H₂O
which comes from
CH₃COOH → CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺
H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O<span>

</span>The k for water is always 1.0 x 10¹⁴. The Ksp for the reaction will be
<span>
Ksp = [</span>CH₃COOH][H₂O]
Ksp = (1.8 x 10⁻⁵)(1.0 x 10¹⁴)
<span>Ksp = 1.8 x 10</span>⁹
