The empirical formula of the compound is C. NiF₂.
<em>Step 1</em>. Calculate the <em>moles of each element</em>
The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.
The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles.
So, our job is to calculate the molar ratio of Ni to F.
Moles of Ni = 9.11 g Ni × (1 mol Ni /(58.69 g Ni) = 0.1552 mol Ni
Moles of F = 5.89 g F × (1 mol F/19.00 g F) = 0.3100 mol F
<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of the elements
Divide each number by the smallest number of moles
Ni:F = 0.1552:0.3100 = 1:1.997 ≈ 1:2
<em>Step 3</em>: Write the <em>empirical formula</em>
EF = NiF₂
The plant will grow towards the light source.
An ion-dipole force is a type of intermolecular force in which forces of attraction or repulsion occur between neighboring ions, molecules or atoms.
Explanation:
Pineapple juice often shows an unstable cloud and produces a solid precipitate that is not very attractive for consumers. Cloud stabilization by pectin addition is permitted by EU and Codex standards to counteract this effect. This additive must be labeled and its content should not exceed fixed maximum standards (Website of AIJN Code of Practice). Determination of water-soluble pectins by IFU method 26 (Website of International Fruit and Vegetable Juice Association) can be used for control of this parameter. Pectin addition to pineapple juice or juice concentrate, etc. may also be detected after its isolation by 13C isotopic analysis (Hammond, 2006) as explained later.
