When two carbon atoms are covalently bonded together, they try to achieve an octet structure so their electrons are 4 in number while each of them donates their remaining 2 so they end up sharing 4.

A stable atom would need 8 valence electrons, so since its sharing, lets subtract. 

8 - 6 = 2

It needs only 2 valence electrons.

What is the empirical formula of a molecule containing 65.5% carbon, 5.5% hydrogen, and 29.0% oxygen
natta225 [31]
Carbon(C):
number of moles= mass/molar mass(Mr)
=65.5/12
=5.5 moles

Hydrogen(H):
number of moles=mass/molar mass (Mr)
=5.5/1
=5.5 moles

Oxygen (O):
number of moles = mass/molar mass (Mr)
=29.0/16
=1.8 moles

EF= lowest number of moles over each of the elements

So,
C= 5.5/1.8 = 3
H= 5.5/1.8 = 3
O= 1.8/1.8 = 1

Therefore Emperical formula= C3H3O

Please help me with this question
vampirchik [111]

Remember that

  • For being a bond covalent ∆E<1.8
  • For being a bond ionic ∆E>1.8

#1

  • ∆EN=0.5

Carbon is present so it's covalent

#2

  • OH bond is also covalent

#3

  • P-H will hardly form a bond

#4

  • Ionic bond

#5

  • Ionic bond

Magnesium has three naturally occurring isotopes(Mg-24, Mg-25, and Mg-26). The atomic mass and natural abundance of Mg-24 are 23
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Data

               Atomic mass               Abundance

Mg -24 =    23.9850                         79%

Mg -25 =    24.9858                         10%  

Mg - 26=          ?                                  ?

Process

1.- Find the abundance of Mg-26

The sum of the abundance of the three isotopes equals 100%

         

 Abundance Mg-24 + Abundance-Mg-25 + Abundance-26 = 100

            79 + 10 + Abundance-26 = 100

            Abundance Mg-26 = 100 -89

           Abundance Mg-26 = 11%

2.- Find the atomic mass of Mg-26, the average atomic mass is 24.31 amu

Average atomic mass = (abundance)(atomic mass- 24) + (abundance)

                                         (atomic mass-25) + (abundance)(atomic mass-26)

    24.31 = (0.79)(23.9850)+ (0.10)(24.9858) + (Atomic mass-26)(0.11)

    24.31 = 18.94815 + 2.4986 + 0.11(atomic mass-26)

    24.31 = 21.4342 + 0.11(atomic mass- 26)

    0.11(atomic mass-26) = 24.31 - 21.4342

    0.11(atomic mass-26) = 2.8758

    Atomic mass-26 = 2.8758/0.11

 <u>   Atomic mass-26 = 26.1436 amu</u>
