The correct answer is B. The scientists and all test subjects involved in the investigation work for the company that sells the medication.

Explanation:

In science, a medication, product or similar is only considered as reliable if it has been tested following the scientific method and if there are not interests that can affect the process or the result. This commonly implies, using the medication in a test group and compare the results to a control group that does not use medication, prove there was a positive effect on the test group people from the control group did not have and also  being able to replicate the study which means this can be applied with more groups and the results would be consistent. However, that scientist and test subjects work for the company that sells the medication is not a factor that contributes to reliability and indeed is a warning sign because due to their interest in selling the medication they can alter or influence testing to sell the medication and therefore this is not reliable.

8. Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) cannot be stored in the body, so it must be supplied in the diet. It is a C, H, O compound. If 7.75
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Molecular formula = C6H8O6

The molar mass of vitamin C = 176.14 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of vitamin C = 7.75 grams

Mass of CO2 = 11.62 grams

Mass of H2O = 3.17 grams

Molar mass of CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

Molar mass of H2O = 18.02 g/mol

Molar mass C = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass H = 1.01 g/mol

Molar mass O = 16.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles CO2

Moles CO2 = 11.62 grams /44.01 g/mol

Moles CO2 = 0.264 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles C

For 1 mol CO2 we have 1 mol C

For 0.264 moles CO2 we have 0.264 moles

Step 4: Calculate mass C

Mass C = 0.264 moles * 12.01 g/mol

Mass C = 3.17 grams

Step 5: Calculate moles H2O

Moles H2O = 3.17 grams / 18.02 g/mol

Moles H2O = 0.176 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles H

For 1 mol H2O we have 2 moles H

For 0.176 moles H2O we have 2*0.176 = 0.352 moles

Step 6: Calculate mass H

Mass H = 0.352 moles * 1.01 g/mol

Mass H = 0.356 grams

Step 7: Calculate mass O

Mass O = 7.75 grams - 3.17 - 0.356

Mass O = 4.224 grams

Step 8: Calculate moles O

Mass O = 4.224 grams / 16.0 g/mol

Mass O = 0.264 moles

Step 9: Calculate mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

C: 0.264 moles / 0.264 moles = 1

H: 0.352 moles / 0.264 moles = 1.33

O: 0.264 moles / 0.264 moles = 1

This means for each C atom we have 1.33 H atoms and 1 O atom

OR

For every 3 C atoms we have 4 H atoms and 3 O atoms

The empirical formula is C3H4O3

Step 10: Calculate the molecular formula

The molecular mass of the empirical formula is 88.07

Since the molar mass of vitamin C is between 150 and 200 g/mol

We have to multiply the empirical formula by 2

Molecular formula = 2*(C3H4O3) = C6H8O6

The molar mass of vitamin C = 176.14 g/mol
