Answer:
1.76 * 6.02*10^23 = 1.05952*10^24
1.05952*2 = 2.11904 *10^24 oxygen and 1.05952*10^24 sulfur atoms
In redox reactions, there is no net loss or gain of electrons, so the answer is (1) equal to the total number of electrons gained
Electrons are negatively charged particles. Like charges repel one another, so electron pairs will want to be as far apart from each other as possible. Thus, the answer here would be A.
<u>Answer:</u> The empirical formula for the given compound is 
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Mass of pure compound containing copper and sulfur = 4.963 g
Mass of S = 1.000 g
Mass of Cu = (4.963 - 1.000) g = 3.963 g
To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:
- <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.
Moles of Copper =
Moles of Sulfur = 
- <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.
For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.0312 moles.
For Copper = 
For Sulfur = 
<u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.
The ratio of Cu : S = 2 : 1
Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is 
Lithium fluoride is the compound name
