D. 8

You can predict it from it's name "Octet" means Eight. Atom must have that number of electron to have a stable structure!

Hope this helps!

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. To fulfill the octet rule electron sharing leads to 8 <span>electrons around each atom. From the word octet, you can directly say that the number 8 is involved here. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Describe how the height of the tides changes from Monday to Thursday.

adoni [48]

One of the results is that the moon is near the earth and the other one, the oceans tide. Even though the earth can hold any object within
ts proximity, the ocean is partly attracted due to its liquid property. At night, the ocean tends to be attracted to the moon by creating a bulge and assigning it as ‘high tide’. This is due to the strong gravitational pull of th moon to the earth.

When 6.040 grams of a hydrocarbon, CxHy, were burned in a combustion analysis apparatus, 18.95 grams of CO2 and 7.759 grams of H

algol [13]

Answer: The empirical formula is $CH_2$ and molecular formula is $C_4H_8$

Explanation:

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2$ = 18.95 g

Mass of $H_2O$ = 7.759 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 18.59 g of carbon dioxide, = $\frac{12}{44}\times 18.59=5.07g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 7.759 g of water, = $\frac{2}{18}\times 7.759=0.862g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of C = 5.07 g

Mass of H = 0.862 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C = $\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{5.07g}{12g/mole}=0.422moles$

Moles of H= $\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{0.862g}{1g/mole}=0.862moles$

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C = $\frac{0.422}{0.422}=1$

For H = $\frac{0.862}{0.422}=2$

The ratio of C : H = 1: 2

Hence the empirical formula is $CH_2$ .

The empirical weight of $CH_2$ = 1(12)+2(1)= 14 g.

The molecular weight = 56.1 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

$n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight }}{\text{Equivalent weight}}=\frac{56.1}{14}=4$

The molecular formula will be= $4\times CH_2=C_4H_8$

The AE of a system that releases 12.4 J of heat and does 4.2 J of work on its surroundings It is_______ jA. 16.6 B. 12.4 C. 4.2

andre [41]

ANSWER

EXPLANATION

Given that

The energy released by the system is 12.4J

Work done on the surrounding is 4.2J

Follow the steps below to find the change in energy

In the given data, energy is said to be released to the surroundings

Recall, that exothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which heat is released to the surroundings. Hence, change in enthalpy is negative

Step 1; Write the formula for calculating change in energy

$\Delta E\text{ }=\text{ q }+\text{ w}$

Since heat is released to the surrounding, then q = -12J

Recall, that work done by the system on the surroundings is always negative

Hence, w = -4.2J

Step 2; Substitute the given data into the formula in step 1

$\begin{gathered} \text{ }\Delta E\text{ = q + w} \\ \text{ }\Delta E\text{ }=\text{ -12.4 }+\text{ \lparen-4.2\rparen} \\ \text{ }\Delta E\text{ = -12.4 - 4.2} \\ \text{ }\Delta E\text{ }=\text{ -16.6J} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the change i
