Answer:

FeSO4.

Explanation:

We divide the percentages by the relative atomic masses of the elements:

Iron =  36.76 / 55.845= 0.6583

Sulphur = 21.11 / 32.06 = 0.6584

Oxygen = 42.13 / 15.999 = 2.6333

Simplifying the ratios:

Fe : S : O =

0.6583: 0.6584: 2.6333

= 1 : 1 : 4

The empirical formula is FeSO4.   (Ferrous Sulphate).

Answer:

(C) is the mechanism that increases the temperature between the photosphere and corona of the sun.

Explanation:

When a stars is converted from hydrogen to helium then this is known as proton -proton chain reaction.Due to this reaction the temperature between corona of the sun and photosphere increases.The main reason for increasing the temperature is exothermic reaction.

So the option C is correct.

Rank the following elements by increasing atomic radius: carbon, aluminum, oxygen, potassium. Rank the following elements by inc
Lapatulllka [165]
The trend of atomic radius in the periodic table is increasing from right to left and from top to bottom. In reference to the table, oxygen has smaller radius compared to carbon, which is smaller than aluminum and which is also smaller than potassium. Thus, the trend from smallest to biggest is oxygen carbon, aluminum and potassium.
