Gina's group classified their mineral samples based on relative hardness. They considered the minerals that have a hardness of l

ess than five as relatively soft, and those with a hardness of five or above as relatively hard. They showed their groupings in a table.
A 2 column table with 3 rows. The first column is labeled Relatively soft minerals with entries: Bornite, Chalcopyrite, Goethite. Second column is labeled Relatively hard minerals with entries: Hematite, Pyrite, Pyrrhotite.

What does Gina’s group need to do to correct the information in the table?

Bornite needs to be switched with pyrite.
Pyrite needs to be switched with goethite.
Goethite needs to be switched with pyrrhotite.
Pyrrhotite needs to be switched with hematit

The empirical formula of a compound is CH2O and its molecular weight is 90.09 g/mol. Determine the molecular formula.
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer : The molecular formula of the compound will be, C_{3}H_{6}O_3

Explanation :

Empirical formula : It is the simplest form of the chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Molecular formula : it is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

For determining the molecular formula, we need to determine the valency which is multiplied by each element to get the molecular formula.

The equation used to calculate the valency is :

n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}

As we are given that the empirical formula of a compound is CH_2O and the molar mass of compound is, 90.09 gram/mol.

The empirical mass of CH_2O = 1(12) + 2(1) + 1(16) = 30 g/eq

n=\frac{\text{molecular mass}}{\text{empirical mass}}

n=\frac{90.09}{30}=3

Molecular formula = (CH_2O)_n=(CH_2O)_3=C_{3}H_{6}O_3

Thus, the molecular formula of the compound will be, C_{3}H_{6}O_3

If the compound potassium chloride is written in words, how do you know to write the formula with one potassium and one chloride
NNADVOKAT [17]

Because there is only one stable ionic compound made up of potassium and chlorine, and that is KCl. So calling is "mono chloride" or similar would be redundant assuming you understand basic chemistry (i.e. knowing oxidation numbers of K is +1 and Cl is -1). When compounds can exist in multiple forms in nature like CO and CO2 you will preferably indicate it through the nomenclature, calling one a monoxide and the other a dioxide.
