To get the empirical formula of this compound, we take a basis of 100 grams which means each percentage is equivalent to 1 gram. Hence there is 32.39 grams sodium, 22. 53 grams sulfur and 45.07 grams oxygen. We convert each mass to their moles by dividing by their respective molar mass. Na: 1.408, S:0.704 and O:2.82. divide each with the lowest: Na: 2: S: 1 and O:4. Hence the formula is Na2SO4.

jim jill robert and kim each run paper chromatography on an unknown aqueous mixture. Jim gets a red band jill gets a yellow band
Morgarella [4.7K]
Chromatography is an analytical method of separating components of the mixture. Particularly, this method uses the paper chromatography. The color indicates the type of substance existing. Each substance is designated to one color only. So, if your paper showed more than one color, it mean that there is more than one component in there. Therefore, Kim's specimen contains more than one component because of the red and blue band.

Please help please help

Explanation:

in this question, we're asked how to determine whether we have a metallic or nonmetallic substance.So what you want to do is one to remember that metals are malleable and Nonmetal are brittle. So if we were to hammer the metal, it would be very malleable, but the nonmetal would fall apart. And never we could just hammer the sample and see whether it was malleable. And therefore it would be a medal or a brittle and therefore being nonmetal.

The density of gas particles in a section of Earth’s atmosphere decreases. Which of the following is the most likely explanation
Bad White [126]
<span>This is due to the fact that the air pressure in that certain section of Earth’s atmosphere decreased. As density of gas particles decreases as air pressure decreases. Therefore, density of gas particles and air pressure have a direct relationship. An increase in air pressure would then effect to an increase in gas particles. </span>

Write the acid-base reaction between the weak acid hydrofluoric acid, hf and the strong base sodium hydroxide naoh.
MissTica

HF + NaOH = NaF + H2O

Aqueous sodium fluoride (NaF) and water are the products of the reaction between hydrofluoric acid (HF), a weak acid and sodium hydroxide (NaOH), a strong base.

It is a straightforward acid-base reaction, despite the fact that hydrogen fluoride is a weak acid that doesn't completely dissociate in water (the equilibrium between the dissociated & undissociated acid will however be pushed to the right as the reaction progresses and all of the acid will eventually be neutralized). Water and sodium fluoride are the products

What exactly is an acid-base reaction?

An acid-base reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs between the reactants, which are an acid and a base. This reaction produces salt and water as byproducts. An acid-base reaction is a double replacement reaction in which ions swap positions.
