Answer:
C₂H₄O₂
Explanation:
Step 1: Divide each percentage by the atomic mass of the element
C: 40.00/12.01 = 3.331
H: 6.67/1.01 = 6.60
O: 53.33/16.00 = 3.333
Step 2: Divide all the numbers by the smallest one
C: 3.331/3.331 = 1
H: 6.60/3.331 ≈ 2
O: 3.333/3.331 ≈ 1
The empirical formula is CH₂O, with a molecular weight of 12 g/mol + 2 × 1 g/mol + 16 g/mol = 30 g/mol. The molecular weight of the compound must be a product of 30, such as 60 (between 55 and 62 g/mol). Since we have to multiply by 2 (30 to 60) to get to the molecular weight of the compound, we also have to multiply the empirical formula by 2 to get the chemical formula of the compound.
CH₂O × 2 = C₂H₄O₂
The answer would be A: its container.
Gas will expand to fill whatever container it is put in.
Mechanical waves can help in the treatment of cancer due to heat generated by the high frequency waves.
<h3>What is mechanical wave?</h3>
A mechanical wave is a wave that requires material medium for its propagation, example include;
- water waves,
- sound waves, and
- seismic waves.
<h3> Mechanical waves in treatment of cancers</h3>
Sound wave in example of mechanical wave because it requires material medium for its propagation.
High-frequency sound waves (HIFU) is used in the treatment of cancer because the strong beam generates heat which is directed to a specific part of a cancer.
The heat generated destroys the cancer cells.
Thus, mechanical waves can help in the treatment of cancer due to heat generated by the high frequency waves.

Charles law states that volume of gas is directly proportional to temperature at constant pressure
V/T = k
where V - volume , T - temperature and k - constant

where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
in the question it states that the temperature has been increased from 278 K to 231 K but it should actually be temperature is decreased from 278 K to 308 K
substituting the values in the equation

V = 462 cm³
the answer should be D. 462 cm³
