Answer:
C₆H₈O₆
Explanation:
First off, the<u> percent of oxygen by mass</u> of vitamin C is:
- 100 - (40.9+4.58) = 54.52 %
<em>Assume we have one mol of vitamin C</em>. Then we would have <em>180 grams</em>, of which:
- 180 * 40.9/100 = 73.62 grams are of Carbon
- 180 * 4.58/100 = 8.224 grams are of Hydrogen
- 180 * 54.52/100 = 98.136 grams are of Oxygen
Now we <u>convert each of those masses to moles</u>, using the <em>elements' respective atomic mass</em>:
- C ⇒ 73.62 g ÷ 12 g/mol = 6.135 mol C ≅ 6 mol C
- H ⇒ 8.224 g ÷ 1 g/mol = 8.224 mol H ≅ 8 mol H
- O ⇒ 98.136 g ÷ 16 g/mol = 6.134 mol O ≅ 6 mol O
So the molecular formula for vitamin C is C₆H₈O₆
Answer:
yes great job you do know that you can make high voltage capacitors to store static electricity just look up ElectroBooms high voltage capacitor he made it's very useful if you want to learn more.

Answer:
SeCl₆ < SeF₂ < SeO₂
Explanation:
(A) SeO₂
The central atom has 2 bond pairs and 1 lone pair. The molecule is bent shaped which has an angle of 120°.
(B) SeCl₆
The central atom has 6 bond pairs and 0 lone pair. The geometry is octahedral in which the equatorial bonds has an angle of 90° and axial bond has an angle of 90°.
(C) SeF₂
The central atom has 2 bond pairs and 2 lone pairs. The geometry is bent shape which has an angle of approximately 105.5°.
The order is:
<u>SeCl₆ < SeF₂ < SeO₂</u>
The greatest source of radiation is radon gas
