Answer:

Empirical formula is CCl₄

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of carbon = 7.70%

Percentage of chlorine = 92.3%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of Cl = 92.3 / 35.5 = 2.6

Number of gram atoms of C = 7.70 / 12 = 0.64

Atomic ratio:

            C                      :              Cl            

           0.64/0.64        :             2.6/0.64

            1                      :                4        

C : Cl  = 1 : 4

Empirical formula is CCl₄.

Uranium-267 undergoes alpha decay, what is the mass of the new element?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

will this help ?

Explanation:

(108Hs) is a synthetic element, and thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. Like all synthetic elements, it has no stable isotopes. The first isotope to be synthesized was 265Hs in 1984. There are 12 known isotopes from 263Hs to 277Hs and 1–4 isomers. The most stable isotope of hassium cannot be determined based on existing data due to uncertainty that arises from the low number of measurements. The confidence interval of half-life of 269Hs corresponding to one standard deviation (the interval is ~68.3% likely to contain the actual value) is 16 ± 6 seconds, whereas that of 270Hs is 9 ± 4 seconds. It is also possible that 277mHs is more stable than both of these, with its half-life likely being 110 ± 70 seconds, but only one event of decay of this isotope has been registered as of 2016.[1][2].

Calculate the boiling temperature of a 0.50 M solution of sucrose. Assume that the concentration is 0.50 m.
Ronch [10]
There is one missing point in the question.

The formula to find an increase in boiling Temperature is :

ΔT = kb x M

ΔT = is the increase in boiling Temperature
Kb = Boiling point constant of the Solvent
M = Molarity

You did not provide the Kb. If you have it, you just have to insert it to the formula to find the ΔT.


And assuming that the other solution is water, you just have to add it up with 100 Celcius
