The empirical formula is the simplest number of atoms each can be reduced to. If we want to find the molecular formula, we need to find the right number of atoms of each that will add to the given mass, in this case, 62.0 grams. In this case, we find the individual masses of each element.
Carbon: 12.011 grams

Hydrogen: 1.008 grams * 3 since there are three

Oxygen: 15.999 grams

When we add these, we get a total mass of 31.034 grams. If we multiply it by two, we get the exact mass of the molecule formula, 62.068. Since we multiplied by two, all molecules have to be multiplied by two. That just means we multiply the number of molecules in the compound by two.
Therefore,

Empirical: CH3O

CH3O*2= C2H6O2 = Molecular

Time taken for star to reach Earth = 7.5 years

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

7.5 light years(distance Earth-star)

Required

Time taken

Solution

Speed of light=v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

1 light years = 9.461 × 10¹⁵ m= distance(d)

So time taken for 1 light years :

time(t) = distance(d) : speed(v)

t = 9.461 × 10¹⁵ m : 3 x 10⁸ m/s

t = 3.154 x 10⁷ s = 1 years

So for 7.5 light years, time taken = 7.5 years

What are the standard temperature and pressure conditions enthalpy is usually measured under?
oksian1 [2.3K]

The standard temperature and pressure conditions enthalpy is usually measured under are 1kPa and 273K (option A).

<h3>What is enthalpy?</h3>

Enthalpy in thermodynamics is a measure of the heat content of a chemical or physical system.

Enthalpy is the sum of the internal energy and pressure times volume It can be calculated using the following formula:

H = E + P V

Where;

H = Enthalpy

E = internal energy

P = pressure

V = volume

However, the enthalpy of a substance is usually measured under standard temperature and pressure.

  • The standard temperature is 273 Kelvin or K
  • The standard pressure is 1kPa
