The correct answer would be the first option. Material A having a smaller latent heat of fusion would mean that it will take only less energy to phase change into the liquid phase. Latent of heat of fusion is the amount of energy needed of a substance to phase change from solid to liquid or liquid to solid.
Almost all properties are common to elements within a single group on the periodic table. They react with water in the same way, they have the same number of valence electrons thereby having the same valency, the number of shells in the atom of the element increases by one as we move down the group.
In general, they have the same chemical properties as chemical properties depend on the number of electrons in the valence shell i.e. the outermost shell in the atom of an element.
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

A. LITTORAL ZONE is a freshwater ecosystem that is home to rooted plants.
Littoral zone is the shallow area of a lake, pond, river or ocean. This is the area where mangroves grow.
Some counties and water district identify littoral zones so that these zone will be planted with native plants. This is done for the purpose of having the plants purify the water and maintain a balanced ecosystems.
