Answer: C2HNO3

Explanation: C = 27.59/12.011 = 2.297

H = 1.15/1.008 = 1.1409

N = 16.09/14.007 = 1.1487

O = 55.17/15.999 = 3.4483

Divide by smallest result:

C = 2

H=1

N=1

O = 3

Empirical formula = C2HNO3

A full bottle of water was left outside overnight in freezing temperatures, causing the bottle to crack. No mass was added or re
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:The correct answer is option C.

Explanation;

Water has unique property that is, it expands on freezing.Which is the reason for less density of ice than water. The cracking of the bottle was due to the expansion of water (present inside the bottle) on freezing.

Generally, density is inversely proportional to the volume of the substance.

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Density\propto \frac{1}{Volume}

As we know ,that water expands on freezing which means that volume increases. And with increase in volume of density decreases.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

16. Which element has th17. Magnesium, Mg, tends to form a +2 ion. Which will have the larger atomic radius? Mg or Mg2+ (Explain
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Th is the symbol for element Thorium.

Mg is magnesium while Mg 2+ is magnesium Ion. Judging from periodic trends, atomic radius is one half the distance between the atoms of two covalently bonded atoms. It decreases as elevtrons are added to valence shells. That means, across the period it increases and down the group it decreases. Making Mg2+ smaller.

Electronegativity is the energy needed to take an electron in the gaseous state. Florine is more electron negative that lithium. It increases across the period and decreases down the group. Except in the Noble group.
