Answer:

Explanation:
When calculating an empirical formula from percentages, assume you have a 100g sample. This allows you to convert the percentages directly to grams, because X % of 100g is X grams.
So:
24.42 % = 24.42 g Ca, 17.07% = 17.07g N, 58.5% = 58.5g O
The next step is to divide each mass by their molar mass to convert your grams to moles.
24.42/40.08 = 0.6092 mol
17.07/14.01 = 1.218 mol
58.85/15.99 = 3.680 mol
Then you will divide all of your mol values by the SMALLEST number of moles. This gives you whole numbers that are the mole ratio (subcripts) of the empircal formula.
0.6092 mol/0.6092 mol = 1
1.218 mol/0.6092 mol = 2
3.680 mol/0.6092 mol = 6
So the empirical formula is 
Answer:
82.4 s
Explanation:
Find the NUMBEr of half lives...then multiply by 54.3
2.27 = 6.5 (1/2)^n
log (2.27/6.5) / log (1/2) = n = 1.52 half lives
1.52 * 54.3 = 82.4 s
<span>To solve this exercise you need to know that to create CO₂ with C₂H₂ is necessary to have oxygen. So, the following balanced equation represents the reaction:
2C₂H₂(g) + 5O₂(g) → 4CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)
Notice that 2 moles of C₂H₂ form 4 moles of </span><span>CO₂, so if </span>3.3 moles of C₂H₂ react, how many moles of CO2 would be produced?
2 moles <span>of C₂H₂ -------</span>4 moles of <span>CO₂
3.3 </span><span>moles <span>of C₂H₂--------x moles of CO₂
x=6.6 </span></span><span>moles of CO₂ produced.</span>
