The postulates of Dalton's theory were:
1) Elements are made of extremely small particles called atoms
2) <span>Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and other properties
</span>3) <span>Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed</span>
4) Atoms combine in whole number ratio to form compounds
5) Chemical reactions are the rearrangement of atoms
The third postulate has been disproved by modern science, in which the atom has been split and been subdivided into smaller parts such as the neutron, proton and electron, which are further subdivided into quarks, gluons, and kaons.
The second postulate was also disproved upon the discovery of isotopes.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Empirical formula = C₂H₃O
Molecular formula = C₁₄H₂₁O₇
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
Empirical formula
Moles of;
Carbon = 55.8 /12 = 4.65 moles
Hydrogen = 7.04/ 1 = 7.04 moles
Oxygen = 37.16/ 16 = 2.3225 moles
We then get the mole ratio;
4.65/2.3225 = 2.0
7.04/2.3225 = 3.0
2.3225/2.3225 = 1.0
Therefore;
The empirical formula = <u>C₂H₃O</u>
Molecular formula;
(C2H3O)n = 301.35 g
(12 ×2 + 3× 1 + 16×1)n = 301.35
43n = 301.35
n = 7
Therefore;
Molecular formula = (C2H3O)7
<u> = C₁₄H₂₁O₇</u>
The ice cream would certain flavors that are required to dissolve to take affect.
This info tells us if it stable or not and it tells us how many electrons it need to be stable.
