Answer:
B There are two grams of hydrogen for each gram of carbon in this compound.
Explanation:
The second option is a wrong interpretation of this chemical representation of formaldehyde.
Formaldehyde is an organic compound with the formula CH₂O.
As this is the simplest formula of the compound, it is the empirical formula. Also, the formula is the actual one for the compound and it is the molecular formula.
Chemically, the formula shows 1 mole of carbon, 2 moles of H and 1 mole of oxygen in the compound.
- A mole of a substance is more a less a unit of measurement in chemistry and it is the amount of substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.
This ratio is not the mass of chemical species in the compound. You cannot tell the mass of elements in a compound by merely looking at the formula.
Answer:
1.61%.
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Measured mass = 3.15 g.
Actual mass = 3.10 g
Percentage error =.?
The percentage error of the group can be obtained by using the following equation below:
Percentage error = |Actual mass – Measured mass| / Actual mass × 100
Percentage error = |3.10 – 3.15| /3.10 × 100
Percentage error = 0.05/3.1 × 100
Percentage error = 5/3.1
Percentage error = 1.61%
Therefore, the percentage error of the group is 1.61%.

Answer:
Average atomic mass = 58.51047 amu
The symbol is 
Explanation:
The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:
Given that:
For first isotope:
% = 68.274 %
Mass = 57.9353 amu
For second isotope:
% = 26.095 %
Mass = 58.9332 amu
For third isotope:
% = 1.134 %
Mass = 61.9283 amu
For fourth isotope:
% = 3.593 %
Mass = 63.9280 amu
For fifth isotope:
% = 0.904 %
Mass = 63.9280 amu
Thus,

Average atomic mass = 58.51047 amu
The symbol is
