The three isomers of pentane have different structural formulas.
Answer:
Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 0.82 (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Energy absorbs (q) = 85 J
Change in temperature (Δt) = 34.9 - 21 = 13.9°C
Mass of calcium carbonate = 7.47 g
Find:
Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C)
Computation:
Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = q / m(Δt)
Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 85 / (7.47)(13.9)
Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 85 / 103.833
Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 0.8186
Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 0.82 (Approx)
If one were to match the ratio of atoms of the elements found in this molecular formula of artificial sweetener it would be :
Carbon - 7 atoms
Hydrogen - 5 atoms
Nitrogen - 1 atom
Oxygen - 3 atoms.
Answer:
K₂CO₃
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number of moles of K = 0.104mol
Number of moles of C = 0.052mol
Number of moles of O = 0.156mol
Method
From the given parameters, to calculate the empirical formula of the elements K, C and O, we reduce the given moles to the simplest fraction.
Empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound and it differs from the molecular formula which is the actual formula of a compound.
- Divide the given moles through by the smallest which is C, 0.052mol.
- Then approximate values obtained to the nearest whole number of multiply by a factor to give a whole number ratio.
- This is the empirical formula
Solution
Elements K C O
Number of moles 0.104 0.052 0.156
Dividing by the
smallest 0.104/0.052 0.052/0.052 0.156/0.052
2 1 3
The empirical formula is K₂CO₃
Light acting as 'packets' of exact amounts of energy (a particle-like quality) called quanta led to the development of quantum mechanics. Light also has wave qualities (wavelength, frequency, amplitude) which is referred to as particle-wave duality.
