Suppose we have 100 gr of the substance. Then by weight, it would contain 44.77 gr of C, 7.46 gr of H and 47.76 gr of S. We need to look up the atomic weights of these atoms; M_H=1, M_C=12, M_S=32. The following formula holds (where n are the moles of the substance, M its molecular mass and m its mass): n=m/M. Substituting the known quantities for each element, we get that the substance has 3.73 moles of C, 7.46 moles of H and 1.49 moles of S. In the empirical formula for the molecule, all atoms appear an integer amout of times. Hence, for every mole of Sulfur, we have 2.5 moles of C and 5 moles of H (by taking the moles ratios). Thus, for every 2 moles of sulfur, we have 5 moles of C and 10 moles of H. Now that all the coefficients are integer, we have arrived at an empirical formula for the skunk spray agent:
Answer: Alpha radiation
Explanation: Alpha decay : When a larger radioactive nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing alpha radiation, the mass number and atomic number is reduced by 4 and 2 units respectively.
Beta decay : When a larger radioactive nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing beta radiation, the atomic number is increased by 1 unit.
Gamma decay : When a larger radioactive nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing gamma radiation, the mass number remains same.
Answer:
Because water conducts electricity, so if an electrical current were to meet the water while you're in there taking a bath, you would essentially be surrounded by a huge conductor.
Answer: C. variable depending on where its found
The chemical compositions of minerals is very necessary in order to define or describe a certain mineral. Some minerals can be written in simple chemical formula while others are also written in complicated chemical formulas.
Molar mass NaCl = 58 g
Mass of solute = 29 g
number of moles: mass of solute / molar mass
n = 29 / 58
n = 0.5 moles
hope this helps!
