Answer:

C₃H₆O₃

Explanation:

Data:

EF = CH₂O

MM = 90. g/mol

Calculations:

EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016  + 16.00) u  = 30.03 u

The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.

MF = (EF)ₙ

n = \dfrac{\text{MF Mass}}{\text{EF Mass }} = \dfrac{\text{90. u}}{\text{30.03 u}} = 3.00  \approx 3

MF = (CH₂O)₃ = C₃H₆O₃

Describe the difference between a ball-and-stick model and a space-filling model of a compound.
Lisa [10]
A space-filling model shows the relative amount of space each atom takes up. In other words, a space-filling model can show relative sizes of atoms. However, unlike ball-and-stick or structural models, space-filling models do not show bond lengths clearly. Bonds are not really like sticks in a ball-and-stick model.

The radioactivity of U-235 is of low intensity. Why then were the people of Hiroshima exposed to high intensity radiation in the
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

What occurred then is as a result of nuclear fission. This occurs as the Uranium-235 split into two smaller nuclei while releasing high energy neutrons. These neutrons bombard existing U-235 in the atmosphere and this reaction continue in a spontaneous manner until a chain reaction is formed of U-235, whose fall out fills the environment. This process was what led to people been exposed to high intensity radiation in the days and months after the atomic bomb was dropped.

Why does the electrical conductivity of ionic compounds change when they are dissolved in water?
meriva
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water, because the dissociated ions can carry charge through the solution. Molecular compounds don't dissociate into ions and so don't conduct electricity in solution. Electrical conductivity of the compound in liquid form

¿Cuál de los siguientes no es un ejemplo de movimiento de masas?
babunello [35]

Which of the following is not an example of a mass movement?

to. a. Ground slides  b) acid rain  c. mud flow  d. drop

Answer:

b) acid rain

Explanation:

Acid rain is not an example or a type of mass movement.

Mass movement or mass wasting is the movement of rocks, soils and other debris downslope under the influence of gravity.

Water, slope and gravity are triggers of mass movement.

  • Acid rain is a not a form of mass movement
  • It occurs with some certain gases mixes rain water to produce an acidic precipitation.
  • When the water falls to the each surface, it causes problems to the ecosystem and can also corrode building materials.
