Answer:
Explanation:
C = 41.4/12 = 3.43
H = 3.47/1 = 3.47
O = 55.1/16 =3.44
CHO is the skeletal formula (divide each by the lowest number above). The results are close enough to 1 to be 1.
(CHO)_x = 116
C + H + O = 29
(29) _ x = 116
x = 116/29
x = 4
So there area 4 carbons 4 hydrogens and 4 oxygens.
The correct formula is C4H4O4
Boiling liquids that want to escape gas
Answer:

Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, when two substances at different temperature are put in contact and an equilibrium temperature is attained, we can evidence that the heat lost by the hot substance (metal) is gained by the cold substance (water) and we can write:

Which can be also written as:

Thus, since we need the specific heat of the metal, we solve for it as shown below:

Elements with three p-electrons....
That would be N, P, As, Sb, and Bi -- elements in group 15
For example, energy diagram showing "empty" orbitals up through the 3p.

Energy diagram of phosphorous showing three unpaired electrons in 3p-sublevel
.....3p ↑_ ↑_ ↑_
3s ↑↓
.....2p ↑↓ ↑↓ ↑↓
2s ↑↓
1s ↑↓
According to Hund's rule, the electrons singly occupy the p-orbitals, and all have the same spin.
