Answer:

= C3H4N

Explanation:

We are given; 90 grams carbon, 11 grams hydrogen, and 35 grams nitrogen.

We first calculate the number of moles of each element.

Carbon = 90g/12 g/mol

            = 7.5 moles

Hydrogen = 11 g/ 1 g/mol

                 = 11 moles

Nitrogen = 35 g/ 14 g/mol

               = 2.5 moles

The we get the mole ratio of the elements;

= 7.5/2.5 : 11/2.5 : 2.5 /2.5

= 3 : 4.4 : 1

= 3 : 4 : 1

Therefore;

The empirical formula will be; C3H4N

Verizon [17]

Answer: D. They show that neither theory is complete and entirely correct.

Explanation:

Theory is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon (the existence of the moon in this case) and is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.

In this sense, there are many theories about the Earth's moon formation and two of the "accepted" theories are described before the question. In addition, both theories explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth.

However, both theories seem to be incomplete when trying to explain our Moon's origin.

A solution of toilet bowl cleaner has PH of 13 the solution is?
AlladinOne [14]
The solution is an alkali.

Usually with the pH value range of 14, substances with pH 7 can be called neutral. Meanwhile substances lower than pH 7 are acids, the lower the pH is, the more acidic it is. Such as cola, it has a pH 2, which is very acidic.
In opposite, the substances with pH over 7 are called alkalis. Again, the larger the pH value is, the more alkaline it is. So pH 13 is a strong alkaline therefore it it corrosive and can clean the toilet well.
