Answer:

Empirical formula of  C₈H₈ =  CH

Explanation:

Data Given:

Molecular Formula = C₈H₈

Empirical Formula = ?

Solution

Empirical Formula:

Empirical formula is the simplest ration of atoms in the molecule but not all numbers of atoms in a compound.

So,

tha ration of the molecular formula should be divided by whole number to get the simplest ratio of molecule

        C₈H₈ Consist of  Carbon (C), and Hydrogen (H)

Now

Look at the ratio of these two atoms in the compound

                         C : H

                         8 : 8

Divide the ratio by two to get simplest ratio

                          C : H

                       8/8 : 8/8

                         1   :  1

So for the empirical formula is the simplest ratio of carbon to hydrogen 1 : 1

So the empirical formula will be

                     Empirical formula of  C₈H₈ =  CH

What do you understand by shared pair of electron ​
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:Lone pairs are the valence electron pair of any element which do not take part in bonding but affect the shape of molecules. Bond pairs or shared pairs are the electron pair which does both affect the geometry of molecules and take part in chemical bonding. These are form due to sharing of electrons.

From gross and specific selection rules below, identify which belongs to the rotational, rotational Raman, vibrational and elect
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Rotational spectroscopy, the dipole moment must change during the transition.

Rotational Raman spectroscopy, molecule must have anisotropic polarizability

Vibrational and electronic spectroscopy, molecule must have permanent dipole moment.

Explanation:

  • For the vibration rotation spectrum to be observed, it is necessary to change the dipole moment during the vibration.
  • Raman scattering using an anisotropic crystal gives information about the orientation of the crystal. The polarization of Raman scattering light relative to the crystal, and the polarization of laser light, can be used to determine the orientation of the crystal, provided the crystal structure is known.

Why did scientists need to establish an international language for elements
Liono4ka [1.6K]
If they didn't, they wouldn't be able to communicate their findings effectively. An international language is especially important for elements because many elements have similar properties (e.g. some of the transition metals).
