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

This download is my science worksheet. It's about different types of energy in a situation, like examples. btw this is 7th grade
scoray [572]

All types of energy can be resumed into two basic types of energy which include kinetic energy and potential energy.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

Energy is the ability to perform a given work. Kinetic energy is energy in movement, whereas potential energy is stored energy.

For example, plant photosynthesis makes reference to chemical energy (potential energy), popcorn makes reference to thermal energy, etc.

In conclusion, all types of energy can be resumed into two basic types of energy which include kinetic energy and potential energy.

(a) the temperature on a warm summer day is 87 °f. what is the temperature in °c? (b) many scientific data are reported at 25
olchik [2.2K]

Answers:

              (a)  30.55 °C

              (b) 298 K and 77°F

              (c)  204.44 °C and 477.44 K

              (d)  -320.8 °F and -196 °C

Explanation:

Converting °C into °F;

                                   °F  =  °C × 1.8 + 32

Converting °F into °C;

                                   °C  =  °F - 32 ÷ 1,8

Converting °C into K;

                                   K  =  °C + 273

Converting K into °C;

                                   °C  =  K - 273

The energy of the universe is constant. That what mentioned by the first law of thermodynamics,
Goryan [66]

Answer:

No, ΔE does not always equal zero because it refers to the systems internal energy, which is affected by heat and work

Explanation:

According to the first law of thermodynamics, energy is neither created nor destroyed. This implies that the total energy of a system is always a constant.

So, according to the first law of thermodynamics we have that ΔE = q + w. This means that the value of  ΔE depends on q (heat) and  w(work). Hence ΔE is not always zero since it depends on the respective values of q and w.
