Scientific metod this is one of them
To determine the empirical formula of the compound, we assume a basis of 100 g of this compound. We calculate as follows:
C = 68.75 g
H = 10.90 g
O = 20.35 g
We convert these mass to moles,
C = 68.75 g / 12.01 g/mol = 5.72 mol
H = 10.90 g / 1.01 g/mol = 10.79 mol
O = 20.35 g / 16 g/mol = 1.27 mol
C = 5.72 mol / 1.27 mol = 5
H = 10.79 mol / 1.27 mol = 8
O = 1.27 mol / 1.27 mol = 1
C5H8O
Answer:
carbon-12 is not radioactive
Explanation:
The measurement of the age of dead carbon based life forms requires the use of a radioactive isotope hence it is often referred to as radiocarbon dating.
Carbon-12 and Carbon-14 occur together in living things.The half life of Carbon-14 is about 5670 years.
Hence, since Carbon-12 is not radioactive, it can not be used to measure the age of dead carbon based materials.
Answer:
1 mole of molecules = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules
1 = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules / mole
Multiplying a number with [6.022 × 10²³ molecules / mole] is like multiplying the number with 1 so 0.877 mole × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules / mole = 5.28 × 10²³ molecules
5.28 × 10²³ molecules of water is produced.
Explanation:
Here’s what I found:
It takes very little energy to remove that outermost electron from an alkali metal. Thus, alkali metals easily lose their outermost electron to become a +1 ion. ... In fact, as you go down the 1A column, the first ionization energies get lower and lower, making cesium the most easily ionized element on the periodic table.
So basically it’s because part of what makes alkali metals so reactive is that they have one electron in their outermost electron layer.
