Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound
calculating for 100 g of compound 
                                                     N                                   O
mass                                          46.7 g                              53.3 g
number of moles                  46.7 g / 14 g/mol                 53.3 g / 16 g/mol 
                                                  = 3.33                               = 3.33
divide by the least number of moles 
                                                3.33/ 3.33 = 1.00              3.33/3.33 = 0
number of atoms 
N - 1
O - 1
therefore empirical formula is NO

if i have 2.4 moles of gas held at a temperature of 97 c and in a container with a volume of 45 L , what is the pressure of the
choli [55]

Answer:

1.62 L

Explanation:

T= 97+273.15= 370.15

R= 0.08206 atm/mol⋅K

V= 45 L

n= 2.4 mol

P= (n⋅R⋅T)/V

= (2.4 x 0.08206 x 370.15)/(45) = 1.61997 = 1.62

The value of Ka for phenol (a weak acid), C6H5OH, is 1.00×10-10. Write the equation for the reaction that goes with this equilib
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Ka=\frac{[C_6H_5O^-][H^+]}{[C_6H_5OH]}

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, weak acids are characterized by the fact they do not dissociate completely, it means they do not divide into the conjugated base and acid at all, a percent only, which is quantified via equilibrium. In such a way, the chemical equation representing such incomplete dissociation is said to be:

C_6H_5OH\rightleftharpoons C_6H_5O^-+H^+

Thus, we can write the law of mass action, which consider the equilibrium concentrations of all the involved species, which is also known as the acid dissociation constant which accounts for the capacity the acid has to yield hydronium ions:

K=Ka=\frac{[C_6H_5O^-][H^+]}{[C_6H_5OH]}

Best regards.

In the biosynthetic pathway for folic acid, the compound PABA is the normal substrate for an enzyme in the pathway. The antibiot
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Inhibitor

Explanation:

Enzyme inhibitors are compounds that can interact with the enzyme but don't trigger any biological response. This is what sulfanilamide does. When the enzyme is bound to sulfanilamide, it stops being able to bind PABA, its normal substrate, and so it cannot perform its biological action. In consequence, the entire biosynthetic pathway for folic acid is stopped.

a material has a density of 8.9 g/cm^3. You have six cubic centimeters of the substance. What is the material's mass in grams?
Svet_ta [14]
If the formula for density=m/v, you can manipulate this formula to the the mass. After manipulation, you get the equation for mass to be: m=density * volume. With density and volume given, we can find the mass.

mass= (8.9) * 6 = 53.4grams
