N2H4

<span>Each nitrogen weighs 14.01 and each H weighs 1.01. !4.01+14.01+1.01+1.01 = 32.06 (roughly) </span>

Answer:N2H4

Explanation: Empirical Formula, EF= NH2

Mass of the EF = mass of Nitrogen + mass of Hydrogen

EF = 14.007 + 1.008

= 15.015

Then, divide the given formula mass by the EF. That is,

32.06/15.015 = 2.135 = 2 (to the nearest whole number) ......... (1)

To get the molecular formula, multiple the empirical formula with the number from the equ (1) above.

Molecular formula = 2[NH2] = N2H4

If you dive out just past the continental slope and look at the living things on the ocean floor which zone are you exploring

mamaluj [8]

Lies just beyond the continental slope is the open ocean zone and it has three subzones namely the epipelagic(sunlit zone), mesopelagic(disphotic zone) and bathypelagic zones(aphotic zone). The oceanic zone covers 65% of the ocean's water and where different types of terrains can be found. From deep trenches, deep sea volcanoes and basins. A variety of sea creatures can also be found on each subzone.

Write a balanced net ionic equation for the following reaction: SrCl2(aq) + H2CO3(aq) → SrCO3(s) + HCl (aq)

max2010maxim [7]

We will balance the equation in the following order: metals, amethals, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen (the most common order).
The metal present in the equation is Sr, which is already balanced (there are 1 on each side of the equation).
The amethal present in the equation is Cl. There is 2 Cl in the left side and only one in the right side. So, we will multiply the quantity of the molecule that contains Cl by 2. Doing this, we'll obtain:

$SrCl_2_{(aq)}+H_2CO_3_{(aq)}\to SrCO_3_{(s)}+2HCl_{(aq)}$

Looking at the equation, we can see that it is now fully balanced. Hence, a balanced equation of the reaction is:

$SrCl_2_{(aq)}+H_2CO_3_{(aq)}\to SrCO_3_{(s)}+2HCl_{(aq)}$
