To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:
58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C
9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H
31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O
Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:
4.9/1.96 = 2.5
9.9/1.96 = 6
1.96/1.96 = 1
Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.
So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.
Hydrophobic molecules tend to be nonpolar molecules that group together to form micelles rather than be exposed to water. Hydrophobic molecules typically dissolve in nonpolar solvents (e.g., organic solvents).
Answer:
a salt
Explanation:
compounds are made of molecules but we need to mention the type of compound formed.
Answer:
9.64g/mL
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the metal = 106g
Volume of cylinder = 50mL
Volume difference = 31mL - 20mL = 11mL
Unknown:
Density of the metal = ?
Solution:
To find the density of the metal, we use;
Density =
Density =
= 9.64g/mL
