Answer:

C. CaCO₃  

Explanation:

One formula unit contains the elements calcium, carbon, and oxygen. Start by writing the symbol of the elements:

CaCO

We indicate the number of atoms of each element by writing the number as a subscript following the symbol.

One formula unit contains one atom of Ca, one of C, and three of O, so the formula becomes

Ca₁C₁O₃

Finally, we do not write one as a subscript in a formula. If there is no subscript, we automatically assume that it is one. Thus, the correct formula is

CaCO₃

scientific description about the pizza dough doubles its size when it is placed in a warm place . how does this happen
Marina CMI [18]
Answer is: because carbon(IV) oxide is released.
For example if baking soda is used for <span>the pizza dough, than on heat carbon(IV) oxide is product of chemical reaction:
2NaHCO</span>₃ → Na₂CO₃ + CO₂ + H₂O.
If we use yeast (<span>single-celled microorganism)</span>, also carbon(IV) oxide produced, because yeast turns sugars into carbon(IV) oxide.

What is the pressure in a gas container that is connected to an open-end U-tube manometer if the pressure of the atmosphere is 7
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The pressure in the gas is 656mmHg

Explanation:

In calculating the pressure of the gas;

step 1: convert the height of the mercury arm to mmHg

9.60cm = 96.0 mmHg

step 2: convert 752 torr to mmHg

I torr is 1 mmHg

752 torr = 752mmHg

Step 3: since the level of mercury in the container is higher than the level of mercury exposed to the atmosphere, we substrate the values to obtain our pressure.

So, 752mmHg - 96mmHg = 656mmHg

The pressure in the gas container is therefore 656mmHg.

N. B : if the mercury arm is in lower position, you add.
