The most important or most likely characteristic would be that the acid is to require a special like container that would be corrosive; meaning it can hold and take the dissolving action of other substances.

The answer is: corrosive.

Acids are corrosive is correct. For example hydrochloric acid (HCl) will react with most metals and dissolve them.

For example, balanced chemical equation:

Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g).

s is solid state.

aq is an aqueous solution (dissolved in water).

g is gas (hydrogen gas).

Hydrochloric acid dissociate in aqueous solution to form hydrogen ions (H⁺) and chloride anion (Cl⁻):

HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).

A compound is found to contain 38.65 % carbon, 16.25 % hydrogen, and 45.09 % nitrogen by mass. what is the empirical formula for
iren [92.7K]

The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:

 

C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22

H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25

N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22

 

Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:

 

C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5

N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

 

So the empirical formula is:

padilas [110]

Answer:

            No, in science their meanings are not the same as their everyday meanings.

Explanation:

                   In Science, Precision and Accuracy are defined as,

Accuracy:

               Accuracy is the value which is closest to the known or standard value.

Precision:

                While, Precision is the value of closeness of two measured values to each other.

Example:

             Let suppose in Chemistry Lab you weight an object as 50 g. While the actual weight of that object is 30 g. It means your reading is not accurate.

             On second measurement you find that the object weight is 31 g. This time your reading is not precise.
