Answer:

The answer to your question is     AgCl

Explanation:

Data

Silver = Ag = 75%

Chlorine = Cl = 25%

1.- Convert percent numbers to grams

Silver = 75 g

Chlorine = 25 g

2.- Calculate the moles of each element

Mass number Ag = 108 g

Mass number Cl = 35.5 g

                            108 g of Ag ------------------  1 mol

                              75 g of Ag ------------------   x

                                x = (75 x 1) / 108

                                x = 75 / 108

                                x = 0.69 moles

                            35.5 g of Cl ------------------ 1 mol

                             25 g of Cl    -----------------   x

                                    x = (25 x 1) / 35.5

                                    x = 0.70 moles

3.- Divide by the lowest number of moles

Ag = 0.69/0.69 = 1

Cl = 0.70 / 0.69 = 1.02 ≈ 1

4.- Write the empirical formula

                                                 Ag₁ Cl₁  = AgCl

Which of the following statements about 13C NMR is not true?A. In 13C proton-decoupled NMR spectra, all peaks are singlets.B. 13
adoni [48]

Answer: .B. 13C NMR spectra display peaks for only carbons that bear hydrogen atoms.

Explanation:

The statements that are true about 13C NMR are:

A. In 13C proton-decoupled NMR spectra, all peaks are singlets.

C 13C NMR chemical shifts occur over a greater range than 1H NMR chemical shifts.

D. 13C NMR easily differentiates between the different hybridized carbons (sp3, sp2, and sp hybridized carbons).organic-chemistry

Therefore, the option that isn't true is option B. "13C NMR spectra display peaks for only carbons that bear hydrogen atoms". This is false because 13C NMR will show every peak in the spectrum and it doesn't matter if it's only carbons that bear hydrogen atoms as everything will be shown.

What is the mass number of an ion with 108 electrons, 157 neutrons, and a 1 charge?
levacccp [35]
The answer is 264.12

The element is Bh (Bohrium). If the ion has a 1 charge, the charge can either be 1+ or 1-. So the ion has to be an element with the atomic number 107 or 109 (Bh or Mt). Using simple math, subtract the atomic number from the mass number to equal 157.

264 - 107 = 157
