It is a <u><em>chemical compound</em></u> formed with a metal (mainly positive cations) with oxygen.

It is formed through the air as they react in the air together.

They are also BASES - ALKALINE (so neutralise acids)

Determine the empirical formula of a compound containing 40.6 grams of carbon, 5.1 grams of hydrogen, and 54.2 grams of oxygen.
Lilit [14]

The Empirical formula of compound is C₁H₂O₁. The Molecular Formula of the compound is 4 (C₁H₂O₁).

<h3>What is Empirical Formula ?</h3>

Empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms present in given compound.

Element   %   Atomic mass   Relative no. of atoms  Simplest whole ratio

C          40.6       12                   \frac{40.6}{12} = 3.3                        \frac{3.3}{3.3} = 1

H          5.1          1                      \frac{5.1}{1} = 5.1                          \frac{5.1}{3.1} = 2

O         54.2       16                    \frac{54.2}{16} = 3.3                        \frac{3.3}{3.3} = 1

The Empirical formula of compound is C₁H₂O₁ or CH₂O

<h3>How to find the Molecular formula of compound ?</h3>

Molecular formula = Empirical formula × n

n = \frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{\text{Empirical Formula weight}}

   = \frac{118.084}{30}

   = 4

Molecular formula = n × Empirical formula

                              = 4 (C₁H₂O₁)

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The Empirical formula of compound is C₁H₂O₁. The Molecular Formula of the compound is 4 (C₁H₂O₁).

Which of the following bases are strong enough to deprotonate CH3CH2CH2C≡CH (pKa = 25), so that equilibrium favors the products?
seraphim [82]

Answer:

a, and f.

Explanation:

To be deprotonated, the conjugate acid of the base must be weaker than the acid that will react, because the reactions favor the formation of the weakest acid. The pKa value measures the strength of the acid. As higher is the pKa value, as weak is the acid. So, let's identify the conjugate acid and their pKas:

a. NaNH2 will dissociate, and NH2 will gain the proton and forms NH3 as conjugate acid. pKa = 38.0, so it happens.

b. NaOH will dissociate, and OH will gain the proton and forms H2O as conjugate acid. pKa = 14.0, so it doesn't happen.

c. NaC≡N will dissociate, and CN will gain a proton and forms HCN as conjugate acid. pKa = 9.40, so it doesn't happen.

d. NaCH2(CO)N(CH3)2 will dissociate and forms CH3(CO)N(CH3)2 as conjugate acid. pKa = -0.19, so it doesn't happen.

e. H2O must gain one proton and forms H3O+. pKa = -1.7, so it doesn't happen.

f. CH3CH2Li will dissociate, and the acid will be CH3CH3. pKa = 50, so it happens.

Why might a geologist ask an analytical chemist to help identify the minerals in a rock.
Galina-37 [17]

 A geologist will ask an analytical chemist to help identify the minerals in a rock because an analytical chemist studies the composition of matter and, therefore, can identify the minerals.

The analytical chemist does this by determining the crystal structure as a matter of routine using X-ray and electron diffraction techniques.

An I.V. infusion order is received for Lidocaine 2 g in 250 ml of 0.9% NaCl to be infused at 3 mg/min. What will the flow rate b
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The flow rate would be 22.5ml/hr

Explanation:

Volumetric flow rate = Mass flow rate ÷ density

Mass flow rate = 3mg/min = 3mg/min × 60min/1hr = 180mg/hr

Density = mass/volume = 2g/250ml = 0.008g/ml = 0.008g/ml × 1000mg/1g = 8mg/ml

Volumetric flow rate = 180mg/hr ÷ 8mg/ml = 22.5ml/hr
