Using PV = nRT, we can calculate the moles of the sample.
874 mmHg = 116,524 Pa
n = PV/RT
n = 116,524 x 294 x 10⁻⁶ / 8.314 x (140 + 273)
n = 9.98 x 10⁻³ mol

moles = mass / Mr
Mr = 0.271/9.98 x 10⁻³
Mr = 27.2
Mass of empirical formula = 14
Repeat units = 27.2 / 14 ≈ 2

Formula of substance:
C₂H₄

Combustion equation:
C₂H₄ + 3O₂ → 2CO₂ + 2H₂O

1 mole produces 2 moles of CO₂, so 3 moles will produce 6 moles CO₂

If you can smell your grandmother’s perfume from across the room, you are experiencing the result of which liquid property?
cestrela7 [59]
The appropriate answer is D. volatility. Volatility refers to the susceptibility of liquids to vaporize. Perfume is liquid when applied but because of volatility, it has a tendency to vaporize and so it will convert to a gas and diffuse across the room. The process by which a liquid changes to a vapor is called evaporation.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer: what are dams?

A dam is a barrier that stops or restricts the flow of water or underground streams. Reservoirs created by dams not only suppress floods but also provide water for activities such as irrigation.

how does it conserve water?

well there could be many ways it can conserve water but I will tell you the most important.

When the water level increases they open gates in order to send out water. These dams allow us to store and not to drain water into oceans soon. A DAM is a barrier constructed to hold back water and raise its level

I hope this helps plz click the heart and mark me braines!

Which element rarely reacts because it has 8 electrons in its outer shell?
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

C. Arsenic

Explanation:

Each period is terminated by a noble gas with a closed valence shell with electronic configuration ns²np⁶. Since noble gases have completely filled orbitals in the valence shell and are very stable, it becomes very difficult to alter their stable arrangement by the addition or removal of electrons. They they exhibit very low chemical reactivity.

Noble gas elements are: Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, Radon, Helium (2 electrons in outer shell, stable).
