Which of the following is true regarding electrons?

Calculate the empirical formula of a compound that has a composition of 5.9% (by mass) hydrogen and 94.1% (by mass) oxygen.

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

The empirical formula is the simplest form;

Given:

Oxygen O at 94.1% and

H at 5.9%

Assume 100grams.

94% = 0.941 x 100gm. = 94.1 gm x 1mole/16gm. = 5.88 moles of O

5.9% = 0.059 x 100gm. = 5.9gm. X 1moleH/1.002gm. = 5.88 moles of H

There is one mole of O for each mole of H so the empirical formula is $O_1H_1$

and written as OH.

How does wind develop

avanturin [10]

It is caused by differences in the atmospheric pressure. When a difference in atmospheric pressure exists, air moves from the higher to the lower pressure area, resulting in winds that vary in speed. On Earth, air is also deflected by the Coriolis effect, except exactly on the equator.

The elemental analysis of an organic solid extracted from gum arabic (a gummy substance used in adhesives, inks, and pharmaceuti

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The molar mass of the organic solid is 120.16 g/mol.

The molecular formula of an organic solid is $C_4H_8O_4$

Explanation:

Let the molecular mass of an organic solid be $C_xH_yO_z$

$\Delta T_b=K_b\times m$

$Delta T_b=K_b\times \frac{\text{Mass of solid}}{\text{Molar mass of solid}\times \text{Mass of diphenyl in Kg}}$

where,

$\Delta T_f$ =Elevation in boiling point = $=1.5^oC$

Mass of organic solid= 0.561 g

Mass of diphenyl = 24.9 g = 0.0249 kg (1 kg = 1000 g)

$K_b$ = boiling point constant = 8.00 °C/m

m = molality

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

$1.5^oC=8.00 ^oC/m\times \frac{0.561 g}{\text{Molar mass of solid}\times 0.0249 kg}$

${\text{Molar mass of solid}}=120.16 g/mol$

$\%=\frac{\text{Number of atoms}\times \text{mass of an atom}}{\text{molas mass of compound}}\times 100$

Percentage of carbon in an organic solid = 40.0%

$40\%=\frac{x\times 12 g/mol}{120.16 g/mol}\times 100$

x = 4.0

Percentage of hydrogen in an organic solid = 6.7%

$6.7\%=\frac{y\times 1 g/mol}{120.16 g/mol}\times 100$

y = 8.0

Percentage of hydrogen in an organic solid = 6.7%

$53.3\%=\frac{x\times 12 g/mol}{120.16 g/mol}\times 100$

y = 4.0

The molecular formula of an organic solid is $C_4H_8O_4$

What are the effects of climate change? Answer this question integrating other topics of science.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

»Climatic change leads to malnutrition.

e.g when its cold season, osmoregulation decreases and rate of metabolism declines.

This is because the enzymes lack that optimum temperature for their catalytic activity to take place hence improper digestion.

»Leads to promotion of predation in ecosystem.

such as reptiles e.g snakes, lizards get away from shelters on cold days since they are cold blooded, hence their predators such as animals, birds increase.
