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

Select the more electronegative element in each pair.a.Cl or Fb.Se or Oc.N or Asd.Na or Mg
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Electronegativity is a measure of how strongly atoms attract electrons to themselves.

Process

Look for the electronegativity of each element and compare.

a) Cl = 3.16   F = 3.98          Fluorine has a higher electronegativity

b) Se = 2.55 O = 3.44         Oxygen has a higher electronegativity

c) N = 3.04 As = 2.18         Nitrogen has a higher electronegativity

d) Na = 0.93 Mg = 1.31       Magnesium has a higher electronegativity

How much energy is lost to condense 300. grams of steam at 100.C?
True [87]

Energy lost to condense = 803.4 kJ

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Condensation of steam through 2 stages:

1. phase change(steam to water)

2. cool down(100 to 0 C)

1. phase change(condensation)

Lv==latent heat of vaporization for water=2260 J/g

\tt Q=300\times 2260=678000~J

2. cool down

c=specific heat for water=4.18 J/g C

\tt Q=300\times 4.18\times (100-0)=125400

Total heat =

\tt 678000+125400=803400~J
