Determine the empirical formula for a compound that is found to contain
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The empirical formula is PCl3

Explanation:

Mass of P is 30.97 g, thus 1.523 g of P equivalent to 0.05 moles of P

Mass of Cl is 35.45 g, thus 5.228 g of Cl equivalent to 0.15 moles of Cl

Therefore moles of P : moles of Cl = 0.05:0.15 = 1:3

Therefore the empirical formula, PCl3

3. Students measured the mass of the reactants and products for a combustion reaction they observed.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

A. Students made a measurement error, because ending with more products is impossible.

Explanation:

The law of conversation of matter tells us that in a chemical reaction, matter is never created or destroyed, it's simply converted from one form to another. So the mass of reactants should always equal the mass of the products in a chemical reaction. If there is excess mass in the product, the students have made an error of some kind.

The speed of light is around 6.706×10^8 miles per hour. What is the speed of light in units of miles per minute?
Sindrei [870]

<u>Answer:</u> The speed of light in miles per minutes is 1.117\times 10^7miles/min

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given the speed of light is 6.706\times 10^8miles/hr and we need to convert it into miles/min. So, we use the converion factor:

1 hour = 60 minutes

Converting that quantity into miles/minutes, we get:

(\frac{6.706miles}{1hr})(\frac{1hr}{60min})=\frac{1.117\times 10^7miles}{min}

Hence, the speed of light in miles per minutes is 1.117\times 10^7miles/min

How many times more massive is an oxygen atom than a hydrogen atom?
Gala2k [10]
An oxygen atom is 16x more massive than a hydrogen atom.

You can figure this out by comparing the atomic masses of the two elements: oxygen has an atomic mass number of 16, and hydrogen has an atomic mass number of 1. Thus, an oxygen atom is 16 times more massive than a hydrogen atom.
