Chemistry
1 answer:
Ksenya-84 [330]3 years ago
8 0

Answer and Explanation:

Las fórmulas químicas sirven para conocer qué elementos químicos y en qué cantidad están presentes en un compuesto químico. Por ejemplo: la fórmula química del dióxido de carbono es CO₂. Esta fórmula nos indica que la molécula de dióxido de carbono está formada por 1 átomo del elemento químico carbono y 2 átomos del elemento oxígeno.

Los diferentes tipos de fórmulas químicas son: fórmula empírica, fórmula molecular, fórmula semi-desarrollada y fórmula desarrollada. Tomando como ejemplo al compuesto <em>butano</em>:

- Fórmula empírica: C₂H₅ (indica que hay 2 átomos de C por cada 5 átomos de H; es una fórmula mínima)

- Fórmula molecular: C₄H₁₀ (indica que en realidad cada molécula de butano tiene 4 átomos de C y 10 átomos de H).

- Fórmula semi-desarrollada: CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃ (indica el órden en que se unen los átomos en la molécula).

-Fórmula desarrollada: ver dibujo adjunto (indica cómo están unidos los átomos dentro de la molécula. Ahora vemos los enlaces entre los átomos y que los 2 átomos de C de los extremos están unidos a 3 átomos de H y a otro C, y los dos átomos de C del medio están unidos cada uno a 2 C y 2 H).

Frank has a sample of steel that weighs 80 grams. If the density of his sample of steel is 8 g/cm^3 what is the samples volume
sammy [17]

density is the mass of an object/ liquid per unit volume

formula for density is as follows

density = mass / volume

the mass of steel is 80 g

and density is 8 g/cm³

substituting the values in the equation we can find the volume

8 g/cm^{3} = \frac{80 g}{volume}

volume = 80 g/cm³ / 8 g

volume = 10 cm³

volume of the sample is 10 cm³

The periodic table is called "periodic" because the chemical properties of elements repeat each period.
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

It is called the periodic table because of the way the elements are arranged. You'll notice they're in rows and columns. The horizontal rows (which go from left to right) are called 'periods' and the vertical columns (going from up to down) are called 'groups'.
