<span> Light waves are a wave in the electromagnetic field, this field may exist in a vacuum. Sound needs either solid, liquid, or gas to propagate and therefore it is called a mechanical wave. Sound is a form of energy which is transferred by vibrating air molecules if motions of propagation is air.</span>

This is the chemical formula for carvone (the chemical that gives spearmint its flavor): An organic chemist has determined by me
xz_007 [3.2K]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

This is the chemical formula for carvone (the chemical that gives spearmint its flavor) C_{10}H_{14}O: An organic chemist has determined by measurements that there are 27.3 moles of carbon in a sample of carvone. How many moles of oxygen are in the sample

Answer: 2.73 moles of oxygen are there in the sample.

Explanation:

The chemical formula of carvone is C_{10}H_{14}O.

This means:

When 10 moles of carbon are there in carvone , 1 mole of oxygen is there in carvone

Thus for 27.3 moles of carbon in carvone , \frac{1}{10}\times 27.3=2.73 mole of oxygen is there in carvone.

Thus 2.73 moles of oxygen are there in the sample.

What else is produced when sodium carbonate decomposes? Na2CO3 Na2O +
andriy [413]

When a single compound breaks down into two or more compounds or elements in a chemical reaction then it is known as decomposition reaction.

The chemical symbol for sodium carbonate is Na_2CO_3.

The decomposition of sodium carbonate is:

Na_2CO_3\rightarrow Na_2O+ CO_2

The decomposition of sodium bicarbonate, Na_2CO_3 will result in the formation of sodium oxide, Na_2O and carbon dioxide, CO_2.

Hence, carbon dioxide, CO_2 will produce with sodium oxide, Na_2O on decomposition of Na_2CO_3.
