<u>The </u><u>emperical formula </u><u>can be </u><u>calculated </u><u>as follows:</u>


<u>mass :</u>   4.12g of N            and        0.88g of H

<u>moles:</u>   4.12g/14.007       and        0.88g/1.008

               

<u>moles:</u>   0.294                   and        0.873


<u>moles/smallest number</u>:   (gives the ratio of atoms)


             0.294/0.294                and           0.873/0.294

                   1                               and             2.969

                    1                              and              3



The simplest ratio of N : H is 1 : 3

<u>Hence the </u><u>emperical formula </u><u>is </u><u>NH3</u>


<u>Explanation:</u>

 1.   The emperical formula can be found by getting  the <u>simplest ratio of atoms in a molecule.</u>

2. To get the simplest ratio of atoms we find out the <u>number of moles of each atoms in it.</u>

3. From the number of moles of atoms we can find the simplest ratio of each atom by dividing the <u>number of moles by the smallest number.</u>

Carbon-12 and carbon-13 are isotopes of carbon.
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Isotopes of an element share the same number of protons but have different numbers of neutrons. Let's use carbon as an example. There are three isotopes of carbon found in nature – carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14. All three have six protons, but their neutron numbers - 6, 7, and 8, respectively - all differ.

How are Kelvin scale and celcius scale similar <br>​
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: The Kelvin scale is related to the Celsius scale. The difference between the freezing and boiling points of water is 100 degrees in each, so that the kelvin has the same magnitude as the degree Celsius.

Explanation:

Celsius is, or relates to, the Celsius temperature scale (previously known as the centigrade scale). The degree Celsius (symbol: °C) can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as serve as a unit increment to indicate a temperature interval(a difference between two temperatures or an uncertainty). “Celsius” is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701-1744), who developed a similar temperature scale two years before his death.

K = °C + 273.15

°C = K − 273.15

Until 1954, 0 °C on the Celsius scale was defined as the melting point of ice and 100 °C was defined as the boiling point of water under a pressure of one standard atmosphere; this close equivalence is taught in schools today. However, the unit “degree Celsius” and the Celsius scale are currently, by international agreement, defined by two different points: absolute zero, and the triple point of specially prepared water. This definition also precisely relates the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale, which is the SI base unit of temperature (symbol: K). Absolute zero—the temperature at which nothing could be colder and no heat energy remains in a substance—is defined as being precisely 0 K and −273.15 °C. The triple point of water is defined as being precisely 273.16 K and 0.01 °C.

Please answer ASAP!!
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

C.0.28 V  

Explanation:

Using the standard cell potential we can find the standard cell potential for a voltaic cell as follows:

The most positive potential is the potential that will be more easily reduced. The other reaction will be the oxidized one. That means for the reactions:

Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Cu E° = 0.52V

Ag⁺ + 1e⁻ → Ag E° = 0.80V

As the Cu will be oxidized:

Cu → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻

The cell potential is:

E°Cell = E°cathode(reduced) - E°cathode(oxidized)

E°cell = 0.80V - (0.52V)

E°cell = 1.32V

Right answer is:

<h3>C.0.28 V </h3>
