The empirical   formula  of a compound that contain 46.7 % nitrogen and 53.3% oxygen is calculated as below

find the moles of each element
that is , mole =% composition/molar mass
nitrogen (N)=46.7 / 14=3.33 moles

oxygen (O)=53.3 / 16 = 3.33 moles

divide each  mole  with the  smallest  number of mole to  get the mole ratio that is 3.33 moles


nitrogen (N) = 3.33/3.33 = 1
oxygen(O) = 3.33/3.33 =1

therefore the empirical formula = NO

A horse gallops along a racecourse at a speed of 40 km/h. It takes the horse 3 minutes to run the length of the track.
Natali [406]

To convert minutes to hours we divide the minutes by 60. So if we divide 3 by 60 we get 0.05 hours.

<h3>How to convert minutes into hour?</h3>

We know that in hour, there are 60 minutes so if we go from minutes to hours then we have to divide the number by 60 and when we go from hours to minutes we multiply with the same 60 number.

So we can conclude that to convert minutes to hours we divide the minutes by 60. So if we divide 3 by 60 we get 0.05 hours.

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Faraday's constant will be smaller than it is supposed to be.

Explanation:

If the copper anode was not completely dry when its mass was measured, mass of the copper must be heavier than it should have been. Hence, the calculated Faraday’s constant would be smaller than it is supposed to be since when calculating Faraday’s Constant, the charge transferred is divided by the moles of electrons.

Label each transition in this flow chart as a chemical change or a physical change
Elodia [21]

1) Left up: a chemical change. We can see new substance (red-blue) is formed from one blue and one red atom.

In chemical change new substances are formed, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change.

2) Left down: a chemical change. We can see new substance (red-blue) is formed from two blue and one red atoms.

3) MIddle: a physical change. There is no new substance. Bonds are not broken.

4) Right up: a chemical change. Bonds are broken.

5) Right down: a physical change. Change of state of matter.
