The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and
nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:
C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22
H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25
N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22
Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:
C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1
H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5
N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1
So the empirical formula is:
CHN
Answer: (3) silicon
Explanation:
Element is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements.It can not be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.Example: Silicon (Si)
Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example: ethane 
, propanone 
and water 
D. Common characteristics
Answer: The formula mass (formula weight) of a molecule is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in its empirical formula. The molecular mass (molecular weight) of a molecule is its average mass as calculated by adding together the atomic weights of the atoms in the molecular formula.
Hope this helps.... Stay safe and have a great weekend!!!!! :D
40% solution of glucose is where the solution contains, by weight, 40% glucose and 60% water.
Therefore, if the total weight of the solution is 250 g,
mass of the glucose (C6H12O6) = 250 g * 40% = 100 g
mass of water (H2O) = 250 g * 60% = 150 g
Mass of water can also be calculated by subtracting the weight of glucose from the total weight of the solution:
mass of water = 250g-100g = 150g.
