The empirical formula
Solution
Mass of Hydrogen :
= 2.5 - 2.002
= 0.498
Mol ratio C : H :
C : 2.002/12 = 0.167
H : 0.498/1 = 0.498
Divide by 0.167 :
C : H = 1 : 3
They all have the same number of electrons.
Theyre temporary magnets, so they can be turned on and off.
QPOE Files
The x-ray data are stored in QPOE files (Quick Position-Ordered Events, *.qp) rather than image arrays. These are lists of photons identified by several quantities, including the position on the detector, pulse height, and arrival time. Note that, unlike IRAF images, QPOE files have no associated header file, and are always stored in the current directory, unless explicitly specified otherwise. Non-PROS IRAF tasks can also access QPOE data files in place of image arrays.
