Empirical formula: The formula consist of proportions of the elements which is present in the compound or the simplest whole number ratios of atoms.

Now, molecular formula is equal to the product of n (ratio) and empirical formula.

Molecular formula = n\times empirical formula    (1)

molecular formula =C_{12}H_{24}O_{6} (given)

Since, 6 is the smallest subscript in above molecular formula to get the simpler whole number of atoms. Therefore, divide all the subscripts i.e. number of carbon atoms (12), number of hydrogen atoms (24) and number of oxygen atoms (6) by 6.

empirical formula becomes C_{2}H_{4}O

Thus, according to the formula (1)

C_{12}H_{24}O_{6} = 6\times C_{2}H_{4}O

Hence, empirical formula of given molecular formula is C_{2}H_{4}O

padilas [110]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: C. The specific latent heat of fusion

Explanation:

A. The specific latent heat of vaporization  Specific latent heat of vaporization indicates the transition from liquid to vapor, but we are not looking for this definition. This answer is wrong.

B. The specific heat indicates the amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of water 1°C, so this answer is wrong.

C. The specific latent heat of fusion . This heat indicate the transition from solid ie to liquid, so this is the right answer.

D. The internal energy measures the energy of the molecules of a substance, so this answer is wrong.
