This gas law works only if temperature is recorded in ———— units
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Kelvin

Explanation:

  • Gas laws re the laws that relates properties of gases such as pressure, temperature and volume at different conditions.
  • Gas laws includes, Boyle's law, Charles law, grahams law and pressure law among others.
  • Temperature is one of the quantity of gases explained by gas laws. For gas laws to work, temperature should always be in Kelvin. Therefore, when given temperature in degrees, it is converted to Kelvin by adding 273, that is °C + 273 = K.

Give the chemical formula and systematic name for aurous sulfide, which is named using the older nomenclature. spelling counts!
Bingel [31]
Aurous is a cation of gold. Gold takes the name "aurum" (Au) with atomic number of 79. In its purest form, the element is bright, slightly yellow, soft, ductile, and malleable. The charge of aurous is +1. Sulfide, on the other hand, has a charge of -2. 

Hence, the chemical formula of the compound is Au₂S and its systematic name is gold (I) sulfide.

What is the empirical formula for propene C3H6
USPshnik [31]

The empirical formula is the simplest formula attainable while maintaining the ratio so it will be CH2.

Explanation:

The empirical formula of a chemical compound is the simplistic positive integer ratio of atoms being in a compound. A simple example of this thought is that the empirical formula of sulfur monoxide, or SO, would simply be SO, as is the empirical formula of disulfur dioxide, S2O2.
