nydimaria [60]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

2HgO --> 2Hg + O2 is a decomposition reaction, in which mercury oxide is decomposed into the element mercury and oxygen gas. A decomposition reaction is one in which a more complex substance is broken down into its simpler components.

Hope this helps!

A compound's molecular formula must always be different than the compound's empirical formula. TRUE FALSE
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer: False

Explanation:

Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

Example: CH_4 has similar molecular formula and empirical formula as the elements are already present in simplest of the ratios.

C_2H_2 has molecular formula of C_2H_2 but CH as the empirical formula.

An aqueous solution containing 10 g of an optically pure compound was diluted to 500 mL with water and was found to have a speci
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

<u>Optical purity = 76.9231 %</u>

<u>Specific rotation of mixture = - 97.6923 °</u>

Explanation:

The mass of the racemic mixture = 3 g

It means it contains R enantiomer = 1.5 g

S enantiomer = 1.5 g

Amount of Pure R = 10 g

Total R = 11.5 g

Total volume = 500 mL + 500 mL = 1000 mL = 1 L

[R] = 11.5 g/L

[S] = 1.5 g/L

Enantiomeric excess = \frac {Excess}{Total\ Concentration}\times 100 = \frac {11.5-1.5}{11.5+1.5}\times 100 = 76.9231 %

<u>Optical purity = 76.9231 %</u>

Also,

Optical purity = \frac {optical\ rotation\ of\ mixture}{optical\ rotation\ of\ pure\ enantiomer}\times 100

Optical rotation of pure enantiomer = −127 °

76.9231=\frac {optical\ rotation\ of\ mixture}{-127^0}\times 100

<u>Specific rotation of mixture = - 97.6923 °</u>

Paul [167]

The atom is krypton and its symbol is Kr.

the mass number is 41 + 36 = 77

its charge is 0 as it is a noble gas.
