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

What is used to determine the number of each atom in an ionic formula
ladessa [460]

Answer:

The charge carried by each ion (oxidation state of each atom)

Explanation:

If we have an ionic compound and we want to write its formula, we must first know the magnitude of charge on each ion (shown as oxidation state of the atoms involved) because the magnitude of charge on each ion is eventually crisscrossed and gives the subscript (number of atoms) for each atom in the formula.

For instance, let us write the formula of calcium bromide. Ca has a charge of +2 while Br has a charge of -1. If we exchange the charges and ignore the signs such that the crisscrossed charges form subscripts we can now write; CaBr_{2}.

a cylinder with a movable piston contains 250 cm3 air at 10°C. if the pressure is kept constant, at what temperature would you e
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

T₂ = 169.89 K

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 250 cm³

Initial temperature = 10°C (10+273.15 K = 283.15 K)

Final temperature = ?

Final volume = 150 cm³

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁  

T₂ = 283.15 K × 150 cm³ /  250 cm³

T₂ = 42472.5 K. cm³  / 250 cm³

T₂ = 169.89 K
