What method is used to separate the oxygen from mercury oxide
yanalaym [24]

The method used to separate oxygen from mercury oxide is by strong heating. In the lab mercury oxide is placed in strong glass test tube and strong heat applied to the test tube. Mercury oxide then undergoes a decomposition reaction to produce mecury and oxygen.

Antoine Lavoisier , the father of modern chemistry is the one credited as having proved the decomposition of mercuric oxide  by heating, and that the result was production of mercury and oxygen.

A decomposition reaction is a reaction in which  a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances.

What is the molecular formula for Tricarbon nonachloride?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

C_{3}Cl_{9}

Explanation:

Molecular Formula is representation of the chemical compound in terms of the symbols of all the elements that are present in the compound followed by subscripts, which give the count of each element in that compound.

We need to write the molecular formula of Tricarbon nonachloride. Tri means three, so Tricarbon means there are 3 atoms of Carbon. Likewise, nona stands for 9, so nonachloride means there are 9 atoms of chlorine. Therefore, we can represent nonachloride as:

Carbon (3 atoms) Chlorine (9 atoms) = C_{3}Cl_{9}

Thus, molecular formula of Tricarbon nonachloride is C_{3}Cl_{9}
