Answer:In chemistry, a valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

Answer:
Chemical formula of the precipitate is Fe(OH)₃
Explanation:
Fe(NO₃)₃ and K₂CO₃ are strong electrolytes and completely dissociates in water. Carbonate ions is a weak base and combines with water to form hydroxide ions (OH⁻), as follows
CO₃²⁻ + H₂O <----------------> HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻
Ferric, Fe (III), combines with these hydroxide ions to form insoluble precipitates. Fe(OH)₃ is only partially soluble i.e., it does not completely dissociate in water. When the solutions of Fe(NO₃)₃ and K₂CO₃ are mixed together, Fe(OH)₃ precipitates out due to the strong electrostatic attraction between Fe (III) and hydroxide ions.
The empirical formula of the compound is C₄H₅O₃.
<u>Explanation</u>:
If hydrogen % = 5.98823, the Sum of C+O = 94.01177% or 47.005885% each
The original mass of 300 g is not important
C = 47.005885 / 12.011 = 3.913569
H = 5.98823 / 1.008 = 5.94070
O = 47.005885 / 15.999 = 2.93805
Divide by the smallest number:
C =1.33
H = 2.022
O = 1
Multiply through by 3
C = 4
H =6
O = 3
The empirical formula of a compound = C₄H₆O₃
Do not be confused by the 300 g. It is totally irrelevant to the question because you are dealing with % amounts. It would only have been of importance if you were given some mass values.
