Answer:

Explanation:
In this case, we can start with the reaction:

If we check the reaction, we will have 2 X and Y atoms on both sides. So, <u>the reaction is balanced</u>. Now, the problem give to us two amounts of reagents. Therefore, we have to find the <u>limiting reagent</u>. The first step then is to find the moles of each compound using the <u>molar mass</u>:


Now, we can <u>divide by the coefficient</u> of each compound (given by the balanced reaction):


The smallest value is for "X", therefore this is our <u>limiting reagent</u>. Now, if we use the <u>molar ratio</u> between "X" and "XY" we can calculate the moles of XY, so:

Finally, with the molar mass of "XY" we can calculate the grams. Now, we know that 1 mol X = 85 g X and 1 mol
= 48 g
(therefore 1 mol Y = 24 g Y). With this in mind the <u>molar mass of XY</u> would be 85+24 = 109 g/mol. With this in mind:

I hope it helps!
<span>1. Tap water has a small concentration of H+ & OH- ions as well as water molecules, hence there would be permanent dipole-permanent dipole (p.d.-p.d.) forces of attraction between the water molecules (aka H-bonds) as well as ionic bonds between the H+ & OH- ions.
2. Distilled water does not have H+ & OH- ions, hence only H-bonds exist between the water molecules.
3. There are covalent bonds between the individual sugar molecules.
4. There are ionic bonds between the Na+ & Cl- ions in NaCl.
5. There are p.d.-p.d. forces of attraction between the Na+ ions and the O2- partial ions of the water molecules as well as between the Cl- ions and the H+ partial ions of the water molecules. There are also H-bonds between the individual water molecules and ionic bonds between the Na+ & Cl- ions (although these are in much lower abundance than in unsolvated solid NaCl).
6. There are i.d.-i.d. as well as p.d.-p.d. forces of attraction between the sugar molecules and the water molecules. There are also H-bonds between the individual water molecules and covalent bonds within the sugar molecules.</span>
Answer: The variable that you change in an experiment
Explanation: It does not rely on any other factors that deal with the experiment
