Answer:

The importance of crystal structure. The graphite-diamond mineral pair is an extreme example of the importance of crystal structure. These two very different minerals have exactly the same chemical formula (C), but the crystal structure of the two minerals is very different. In graphite, carbon atoms are bonded together along a flat plane, as shown in Figure 3.

A fog over a lake. what two changes of state must occur to produce the fog? do the water molecules absorb or release energy duri

Zolol [24]

The water from the lake must first evaporate from the liquid state to the gaseous state and then condense in the air to form vapors.
The water molecules absorb energy while evaporating and release it when condensing. Their motion gets faster when they are evaporating and slows back down upon condensation.

How can heat change matter from a solid to a liquid to a gas? Help ima mark Brainlyest!!

babymother [125]

The heat energy breaks down the bonds between the molecules of the solid so the molecules become looser. Further hearing of the liquid causes the bonds to be broken down and the molecules will move further apart.

1.Given:

Molar mass=216.8g

Molecular formula=Pd $H_{2}$

we know;

Molecular formula=n(Empirical formula)

molecular weight of palladium(Pd)=106.4u

molecular weight of hydrogen(H)=1u

Molar mass of Pd $H_{2}$ :

Pd=106.4×1=106.4u

H=1×2=2

molar mass of Pd $H_{2}$ =106.4+2=108.4

n= $\frac{216.8}{106.4}$

n=2

Molecular formula=2(Pd $H_{2}$ )

Molecular formula= $Pd_{2}H_{2}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $Pd_{2}H_{2}$

2. Given:

Molar mass=30.0g

Molecular formula= $CH_{3}$

we know;

Molecular formula = n (Empirical formula)

molecular weight of Carbon(C)=12.01u

molecular weight of hydrogen(H)=1u

Molar mass of $CH_{3}$ :

C=12.01 × 1 = 12.01u

H=1 × 3 = 3u

molar mass of $CH_{3}$ =12.01 + 3 =15.01u

n= $\frac{30.0}{15.01}$

n=2

Molecular formula=2( $CH_{3}$ )

Molecular formula= $C_{2} H_{6}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $C_{2} H_{6}$

3. Given:

Molar mass=129g

Molecular formula=CHOCl

we know;

Molecular formula = n (Empirical formula)

molecular weight of Carbon(C)=12.01u

molecular weight of hydrogen(H)=1u

molecular weight of oxygen(O)=16.00u

molecular weight of chlorie(Cl)=35.5u

Molar mass of CHOCl:

C=12.01 × 1 = 12.01u

H=1 × 1 = 1u

O=16.00×1=16.00u

Cl=35.5×1=35.5u

molar mass of CHOCl=12.01+1+16.00+35.5=64.5u

n= $\frac{129}{64.5}$

n=2

Molecular formula=2(CHOCl)

Molecular formula= $C_{2} H_{2} O_{2} Cl_{2}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $C_{2} H_{2} O_{2} Cl_{2}$

5. Given:

Molar mass=577g

Molecular formula= $TlC_{2} H_{2}O_{3}$

we know;

Molecular formula = n (Empirical formula)

molecular weight of Carbon(C)=12.01u

molecular weight of Thallium(Tl)=204.3u

molecular weight of hydrogen(H)=1u

molecular weight of oxygen(O)=16.00u

Molar mass of $TlC_{2} H_{2}O_{3}$ :

C=12.01 × 2= 24.02u

Tl=204.3×1=204.3u

H=1×2=2u

O=16.00×3=48.00

molar mass of $TlC_{2} H_{2}O_{3}$ =204.3+24.02+1+48.00=278.32u

n= $\frac{577}{278.32}$

n=2

Molecular formula=2 ( $TlC_{2} H_{2}O_{3}$ )

Molecular formula= $Tl_{2 } C_{4} H_{4}O_{6}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $Tl_{2 } C_{4} H_{4}O_{6}$

4. Molar mass=184.5g

Molecular formula=CClN

we know;

Molecular formula = n (Empirical formula)

molecular weight of Carbon(C)=12.01u

molecular weight of Nitrogen(N)=14u

molecular weight of chlorine(Cl)=35.5u

Molar mass of CClN:

C=12.01 × 1 = 12.01u

N=1×14=14U

Cl=35.5×1=35.5u

molar mass of CClN=12.01+14+35.5=61.5u

n= $\frac{184.5}{61.5}$

n=3

Molecular formula=3 (CClN)

Molecular formula= $C_{3}Cl_{3} N_{3}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $C_{3}Cl_{3} N_{3}$

6. For the table refer the attached file.

Simplest ratio of elements:

Carbon=8

Hydrogen=8

Empirical formula= $C_{8}H_{8}$

Molecular formula = $C_{8}H_{8}$

Molar mass of $C_{8}H_{8}$ :

molecular weight of carbon=12.04u

molecular weight of hydrogen=1u

C=8×12.01=96.08u

H=1×8=8u

molar mass of $C_{8}H_{8}$ =96.08+8=104.08u

n=104.08÷78.0

n=1

Molecular formula = n(Empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 1( $C_{8}H_{8}$ )

Molecular formula = $C_{8}H_{8}$

Therefore the molecular formula of a compound is $C_{8}H_{8}$

7. Given:

mass of oxide of nitrogen=108g

mass of nitrogen=4.02g

mass of oxygen=11.48g

moles of nitrogen= $\frac{4.04}{14.01}$ = 0.289 moles

moles of oxygen= $\frac{11.46}{15.999}$ =0.716 moles

We divide through by the lowest molar quantity to give an empirical formula of $N_{2} O{5}$ .

Now the molecular formula is multiple of the empirical formula.

So,

108 = n × (2×14.01 + 5×15.999)

Clearly,n=1, and the molecular formula is $N_{2}O_{5}$ .

8.For the table refer the attached file.

Simplest ratio of elements:

Phosphorus=2

Oxygen=3

We know;

Empirical formula= $P_{2} O_{3}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $P_{4}O_{6}$

9. For the table refer the attached file.

Simplest ratio of elements:

Carbon=2

Hydrogen=9

Oxygen=2

We know;

Empirical formula = $C_{2} H_{4} O$

Molecular formula = 2(Empirical formula)

Molecular formula =2( $C_{2} H_{4} O$ )

Molecular formula = $C_{4}H_{8} O_{2}$

Therefore the molecular formula of the compound is $C_{4}H_{8} O_{2}$

A force of 350 N causes a body to move with an acceleration of 10 m/s2. What's the mass of the body?

Scrat [10]

You have to use the equation F=ma and solve for m to get m=F/a.
m=mass in kg
F=force (in this case 350N)
a=acceleration (in this case 10m/s²)
when you plug everything in you should find that m=35kg

I hope this helps.
