Answer:

<h2>D) 6</h2>

Explanation:

since,   n = molar mass / empirical formula mass

   Empirical formula mass = Total mass of atoms present in empirical formula

                       CHCl = 12+1+35.5

                                = 48.5

 Given, Molar mass = 290.8 g.

           So,        n = 290.8/48.5

                           = 5.995 , that is approx  6.

        So, Molecular formula = n × Empirical formula

                                           = 6 × CHCl

                                           = C_{6}H_{6}Cl_{6}

       So,   Number of C = 6

Why does the temperature stop rising while ice melts into water?
kramer

Answer:

When you heat ice, its temperature rises, but as soon as the ice starts to melt, the temperature stays constant until all the ice has melted. This happens because all the heat energy goes into breaking the bonds of the ice's crystal lattice structure.

What is the chemical formula for iron(III) Oxide with explanation, please
OLga [1]
Writing the name for Fe2o3 is a bit more challenging since Fe is a transition metal. this means you need to used parenthesis and Roman Numeral to show the charge on the Fe atoms. in these case each Fe atoms has a charge of +3 so we write Fe2o3 as an iron(III) oxide

Viefleur [7K]

The question is incomplete, the question is;

Which drawing best accounts for the polarity of methanol, CH3OH, and the bond polarities that make a major contribution to the overall molecular polarity?

A) drawing (1)                                  B) drawing (2)

D) drawing (4)                                  C) drawing (3)

Answer:

   B) drawing (2)

Explanation:

In Chemistry, the direction of dipole is shown from positive end to negative end.

The image that contains the options in the question asked has been attached.

We can see in image 2 that the oxygen atom was correctly designated as the negative end of the dipole while the carbon and hydrogen atoms were each designated as positive ends of the dipole in accordance with the magnitude of electronegativity difference between the two atoms. The net dipole moment is now taken in the direction shown in image 2. This is the correct answer.
