Answer:

THE EMPIRICAL FORMULA OF THE SUBSTANCE IS C2H5NO

Explanation:

The steps involved in calculating the empirical formula of this substance in shown in the table below:

Element                            Carbon           Hydrogen          Nitrogen         Oxygen

1. % Composition              40.66              8.53                 23.72                27.09

2. Mole ratio =

%mass/ atomic mass       40.66/12         8.53/1          23.72/14            27.09/16

                                       =  3.3883            8.53              1,6943             1.6931

3. Divide by smallest

value (0.6931)          3.3883/1.6931    8.53/1.6931    1.6943/1.6931   1.6931/1.6931

                               =      2.001                  5.038           1.0007                      1

4. Whole number ratio        2                       5                   1                               1

The empirical formula = C2H5NO

Using spectroscopic notation write the complete electron configuration for the fluorine atom. Using noble gas notation write the
prohojiy [21]

Explanation:

Flourine has atomic number of 9 and hence 9 electrons in its neutral state. The full electronic configuration is given as;

1s2 2s2 2p5

Carbon has atomic number of 6 and hence 6 electrons in it's neutral state. The noble gas notation as the following format;

[closest noble gas before the element] remaining electrons

The nearest noble gas to carbon is Helium, the noble gas notation is given as;

[He] 2s4

hurry please! avogadro's law relates the volume of a gas to the number of moles of gas when temperature and pressure are constan
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Option B. 4 moles of the gaseous product

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Initial volume (V1) = V

Initial number of mole (n1) = 2 moles

Final volume (V2) = 2V

Final number of mole (n2) =..?

Applying the Avogadro's law equation, we can obtain the number of mole of the gaseous product as follow:

V1/n1 = V2/n2

V/2 = 2V/n2

Cross multiply

V x n2 = 2 x 2V

Divide both side by V

n2 = (2 x 2V)/V

n2 = 2 x 2

n2 = 4 moles

Therefore, 4 moles of the gaseous product were produced.

Give the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in 99Tc
miss Akunina [59]

Explanation:

Tc - 99 is technetium 99.

It is a radioactive element that decays spontaneously. It has a half-life of 211,000 years and decays to stable ruthenium.

  • On the periodic table, it has an atomic number of 43;

Mass number  = 99

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons in atom

  Number of protons in Tc is 43

                      electron is 43

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

  Number of neutrons = mass number - number of protons = 99-43 = 56

In the context of small molecules with similar molar masses, arrange these intermolecular forces by strength (hydrogen bonding -
Katarina [22]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Arrangement of inter molecular forces from strongest to weakest.

  • Hydrogen bonding
  • Dipole-dipole interactions
  • London dispersion forces.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Intermolecular forces are defined as the attractive forces between two molecules due to some polar sides of molecules. They can be between nonpolar molecules.

Hydrogen bonding is a type of dipole dipole interaction between the positive charge hydrogen ion and the slightly negative pole of a molecule. For example H---O bonding between water molecules.

Dipole dipole interactions are also attractive interactions between the slightly positive head of one molecule and the negative pole of other molecules.

But they are weaker than hydrogen bonding.

London dispersion forces are temporary interactions caused due to electronic dispersion in atoms of two molecules placed together. They are usually in nonpolar molecules like F2, I2. they are weakest interactions.
