It's the actual structure of diamond which made the two different. Diamonds have a tetrahedral structure, and as for graphite, it's not structured in that way. The structures of the two is also the reason why diamond is harder than graphite.
Answer:
Water does not remain when an insoluble substance is added
A physical change is like freezing water and it turns into Ice.
The empirical formula of Lorelai's compound is C₄H₁₀O
<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
- C = 64.8 g
- H = 13.62 g
- O = 21.58 g
- Empirical formula =?
<h3>How to determine the empirical formula</h3>
Divide by their molar mass
C = 64.8 / 12 = 5.4
H = 13.62 / 1 = 13.62
O = 21.58 / 16 = 1.35
Divide by the smallest
C = 5.4 / 1.35 = 4
H = 13.62 / 1.35 = 10
O = 1.35 / 1.35 = 1
Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is C₄H₁₀O

The charge of Br changed from –1 to 0, therefore it is the
element which is oxidized. Since it is oxidized then Br is also the reducing
agent.
The charge of Mn changed from +4 to +2 therefore it is the
element which is reduced. Since Mn is reduced, then MnO2 is the oxidizing
agent.
The half –reactions are:
Br: 2Br --> Br2 + 2e-
Mn: MnO2 --> Mn2+
First balance oxygen by adding H2O:
MnO2 --> Mn2+ + 2H2O
Then balance hydrogen by adding H+ ions:
4H+ + MnO2 --> Mn2 + 2H2O
Then the appropriate electrons:
4e- + 4H+ + MnO2 --> Mn2 + 2H2O
Multiply the half-reaction of Br by 2 because the half-reaction
of Mn has 4 electrons.
4Br --> 2Br2 + 4e-
Combine the two half reactions and cancel common factors:
4Br- + 4H+ + MnO2 --> 2Br2 + Mn2 + 2H2O
