Answer:

HfCl3

Explanation:

Step 1

Divide the percent by mass of each element by its relative atomic mass

Hf- 62.2/178.5, Cl-37.4/35.5

0.348, 1.054

Step2

Divide through by the lowest ratio

0.348/0.348, 1.054/0.348

1, 3

Therefore the empirical formula is HfCl3

Hydrogen gas is explosive within the range of 4% - 75% v/v. Assuming that each student in your class produces 6 L of H2 and that
yan [13]
In order to compute this, we must first take a couple of assumptions of:
1) The laboratory size so we can calculate its volume
2) The number of students working in the lab so we know the total gas produced
Let the lab be
11 m × 9 m × 6 m
The volume then computes to be: 
594 m³
We know that 
1 Liter is 1 dm³
1 m = 10 dm
1 m³ = 1000 dm³
Therefore, the room volume in liters is:
594,000 Liters
Let there be 30 students in the laboratory
Total gas being produced:
6 × 30
= 180 Liters
This works out to be:
0.03% of Hydrogen by volume
Therefore, there is no risk of explosion given our assumption of size and students.

In the combined gas law, if the volume is decreased, what happens to the temperature if pressure remains constant?
Flura [38]

The correct answer is A. In the combined gas law, if the volume is decreased and the pressure is constant, then the temperature decreases.

 <span>P1V1/ T1 = P2V2 / T2</span>

 <span>Assume the volume decrease by half; V2 = V1/2</span>

 <span>P1V1/ T1 = P2V1 /2 T2</span>

 <span>Cancelling terms,</span>

 <span>1/T1 = 1/2 T2</span>

T2 = T1/2

 <span>Thus, the temperature decreased.</span>
