A compound is 52.0% zinc 9.6% carbon and 38.4% oxygen. Calculate the empirical formula of the compound.
skad [1K]

Answer:

So a compound is 52% Zinc(Zn), 9.6% Carbon(C), and 38.4% Oxygen (O). Let’s first start off by assuming that we have 100 g of this compound. This means that we have 52 g of Zinc, 9.6 g of Carbon, and 38.4 g of Oxygen.Zinc = 65.38 g/molCarbon = 12 g/molOxygen = 16 g/molThis means we have:52 g of Zn(1 mol Zn/65.38 g of Zn) ≈0.8 mol of Zn.9.6 g of C(1 mol C/12 g of C) = 0.8 mol of C38.4 g of O(1 mol of O/16 g of O) = 2.4 mol of O.

Explanation:

What we want to do next is divide each element by the common factor of all of them, which is 0.8. In most cases, you divide each element by the element with the least amount of moles. After we divide each by 0.8, you’ll notice you have 1 Zn, 1 C, and 3 O. This gives you the empirical formula of ZnCO3, or Zinc Carbonate.

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:Acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1/6 times as that on the earth and we know that mass is property of the material it always remains same and weight is measure of gravitational force, hence

mass of object on moon is 60kg and weight =60g/6=10×10=100N

The term “electricity” in referring to static electricity, means what
sladkih [1.3K]
Is an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material. The charge remains until it is able to move away by means of an electric current or electrical discharge. Static electricity is named in contrast with current electricity, which flows through wires or other conductors and transmits energy.[1]
