Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound
calculating for 100 g of compound
C H O
mass 64.27 g 7.19 g 28.54 g
number of moles 64.27 g / 12 g/mol 7.19 g/1 g/mol 28.54 g / 16 g/mol
= 5.356 mol = 7.19 mol = 1.784 mol
divide by least number of moles
5.356 / 1.784 7.19 / 1.784 1.784 / 1.784
= 3.002 4.03 = 1.000
rounded off to nearest whole number
C - 3
H - 4
O - 1
empirical formula - C₃H₄O
mass of empirical formula = 12 g/mol x 3 + 1 g/mol x 4 + 16 g/mol x 1 = 56 g
molecular mass = 168.19 g/mol
molecular formula is the actual ratio of elements making up the compound
number of empirical units = molar mass of molecule / empirical mass
empirical units = 168.19 g/mol / 56 g = 3.00
there are 3 empirical units making up the molecular formula
molecular formula = 3 x C₃H₄O
molecular formula = C₉H₁₂O₃
Taking the average of more measurements decreases random error of measurement
Taking the average of many measurements is the most effective way to reduce random errors in a measurement. Because the certainty of the results grows as the number of data does, Less risk of random errors means that the value is more certain. Fewer measurements lead to less reliable data collection, which raises the likelihood of random errors.
The complete question is
Which procedure(s) decrease(s) the random error of a measurement: (1) taking the average of more measurements: (2) calibrating the instrument; (3) taking fewer measurements? Explain

Explanation:
An observation is defined as the process which explains how it is happening (qualitative) and and quantitatively able to measure something about the process.
A law is defined as a verified statement that will remain true under the mentioned circumstances as it is based on the past observations that are carefully tested.
A theory is defined as the explanation of an aspect of natural world that can be tested, modified or rejected as a result of further experiments.
Hence, the given statements are classified as follows.
(a) All matter is made of tiny, indestructible particles called atoms - Theory
(b) When iron rusts in a closed container, the mass of the container and its contents does not change - Observation
(c) In chemical reactions, matter is neither created nor destroyed - Law
(d) When a match burns, heat is evolve - Observation
Hey there!:
1) The additional stability that accompanies the formation of the network<span>Crystalline is measured as network enthalpy.
</span>2) The reticular energy is the energy released when the solid Crystal isform from separate ions in the gaseous state. Always exothermic.<span>
3) </span>The enthalpy of the network depends directly on the size of the loads and conversely in the distance between the ions .
hope this helps!
