lactic acid, which consists of C, H, and O, has long been thought to be responsible for muscle soreness following strenuous exer

cise. Determine the empirical formula of lactic acid given that combustion of a 10.0 g sample produces 14.7 g carbon dioxide and 6.00 g water. If the molar mass of lactic acid is 90g/mol, what is the molecular formula

What is the molecular structure of water? What are the physical and chemical properties of water?
Slav-nsk [51]
Water (H
2O) is a polar inorganic compound that is at room temperature a tasteless and odorless liquid, which is nearly colorless apart from an inherent hint of blue. It is by far the most studied chemical compound and is described as the "universal solvent" [18][19] and the "solvent of life".[20] It is the most abundant substance on Earth[21] and the only common substance to exist as a solid, liquid, and gas on Earth's surface.[22] It is also the third most abundant molecule in the universe.[21]

What periodic trends exist for electronegativity?
Anna007 [38]
The highest electronegativity is in the elements in the top left corner of the periodic table, and the lowest in the bottom right corner. Therefore, traveling up or to the left across the periodic table will increase the electronegativity

Consider the following intermediate chemical equations.
QveST [7]

Answer: 250 kJ

Explanation: According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to Hess’s law, the chemical equation can be treated as algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

P_4(s)+6Cl_2\rightarrow 4PCl_3  \Delta H_1=-2439kJ (1)

4PCl_5(g)\rightarrow P_4(s)+10Cl_2(g)  \Delta H_2=3438kJ (2)

Net chemical equation:

PCl_5(g)\rightarrow PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)  \Delta H=? (3)

Adding 1 and 2 we get,

4PCl_5(g)\rightarrow 4PCl_3(g)+4Cl_2 \Delta H_3=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2=-2439+3438=1000kJ   (4)

Now dividing equation (4) by 4, we get

PCl_5(g)\rightarrow PCl_3(g)+Cl_2

\Delta H=\frac{\Delta H_3}{4}=\frac{1000kJ}{4}=250kJ   (4)

Why does a raindrop accelerate as it falls to the earth?
allochka39001 [22]
Acceleration is the rate at which an object changes its speed. When a raindrop is falling down from the clouds due to gravity, the veloicty is pretty much fast, however air resistance comes in action and slows the droplet down... it gives it a constant speed until it hits the ground
