Which of the following best describes an empirical formula?

Monica [59]

Answer:

Option C :

a chemical formula that shows the relative number of each type of atom in a molecule, using the smallest possible ratio

Explanation:

Empirical Formula:

Empirical formula is the simplest ration of atoms in the molecule but not all numbers of atoms in a compound.

So,

Tha ration of the molecular formula should be divided by whole number to get the simplest ratio of molecule

For Example

C₂H₆O₂ Consist of Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H), and Oxygen (O)

Now

Look at the ratio of these three atoms in the compound

C : H : O

2 : 6 : 2

Divide the ratio by two to get simplest ratio

C : H : O

2/2 : 6/2 : 2/2

1 : 3 : 1

So for the empirical formula the simplest ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen is 1:3:1

So the empirical formula will be

Empirical formula of C₂H₆O₂ = CH₃O

So, Option C is correct :

a chemical formula that shows the relative number of each type of atom in a molecule, using the smallest possible ratio

What is the pH of a KOH solution that has [H ] = 1. 87 × 10–13 M? What is the pOH of a KOH solution that has [OH− ] = 5. 81 × 10

vlada-n [284]

pH is the hydrogen ion concentration and pOH is the hydroxide ion concentration in the solution. pH KOH is 12.73, pOH KOH is 2.24 and pH NaCl is 7.

pH is the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration and pOH is the negative log of the hydroxide ion concentration.

The relation between the pH and pOH can be given as, $\rm pOH = 14 - pH$

The pH of KOH can be calculated by the formula,

$\rm pH = \rm -log [H^{+}]$

In the first case, the concentration of the KOH is $1. 87 \times 10^{-13}\;\rm M$

Substituting values in the equation:

$\begin{aligned} \rm pH &= \rm -log [H^{+}]\\\\&= \rm -log [1. 87 \times 10^{-13}\;\rm M ]\\\\&= 12.73\end{aligned}$

Hence, the pH of KOH is 12.73.

pOH of KOH can be calculated by the formula,

$\rm pOH = \rm -log [OH^{-}]$

The hydroxide concentration of the KOH solution is $5. 81 \times 10^{-3}\;\rm M$

Substituting value in the equation:

$\begin{aligned} \rm pOH &= \rm -log [OH^{-}]\\\\&= \rm -log [5. 81 \times 10^{-3}\;\rm M ]\\\\&= 2.24 \end{aligned}$

Hence, the pOH of KOH is 2.24

<u />

The pH of NaCl can be calculated by the formula,

$\rm pH = \rm -log [H^{+}]$

In the third case, the concentration of the NaCl is $1. 00\times 10^{-7}\;\rm M$

Substituting values in the equation:

$\begin{aligned} \rm pH &= \rm -log [H^{+}]\\\\&= \rm -log [1. 00 \times 10^{-7}\;\rm M ]\\\\&= 7 \end{aligned}$

Hence, the pH of KOH is 7.0.

Therefore, KOH is basic and NaCl is approximately neutral.

What does the term rate mean

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is the speed that a chemical reaction proceeds. It is most often referred in terns of amount per unit volume, of a product that is formed in a unit of time or the concentration of a reactant that is consumed in a unit of time.
