Hello!</h2>
The answer is:
The empirical formula is the option B. 
<h2>
Why?</h2>
The empirical formula of a compound is the simplest formula that can be written. On the opposite, the molecular formula involves a variant of the same compound, but it can be also simplified to an empirical formula.
We are looking for a formula that cannot be simplified by dividing the number of molecules/atoms that conforms the compound.
Let's discard option by option in order to find which formula is an empirical formula (cannot be simplified)
A. 
It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.
B.
It's an empirical formula since it cannot be obtained by the multiplication of a whole number and the simplest formula. It's the simplest formula that we can find of the compound.
C. 
It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.
D. 
It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.
Hence, the empirical formula is the option B.
Have a nice day!
Answer:
B
Explanation:
It is important to only test one variable at a time because you need to be able to disprove or prove a problem with just one independent variable. When you have several variables in the experiment, it would be impossible to know which variable honestly caused the end result.
Alright sorry you're getting the answer hours later, but i can help with this.
so you're looking for specific heat, the equation for it is <span>macaΔTa = - mbcbΔTb with object a and object b. that's mass of a times specific heat of a times final minus initial temperature of a equals -(mass of b times specific heat of b times final minus initial temperature of b)
</span>so putting in your values is, 755g * ca * (75 celsius - 84.5 celsius) = -(50g * cb * (75 celsius - 5 celsius))
well we know the specific heat of water is always 4180J/kg celsius, so put that in for cb
with a bit of simplification to the equation by doing everything on each side first you have, -7172.5 * ca = -14630000
divide both sides by -7172.5 so you can single out ca and you get, ca= 2039.74
add units for specific heat which are J/kg celsius and the specific heat of the material is 2039.74 J/kg celsius
