Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound 
molecular formula is the actual ratio of components in a compound .
the molecular formula for the compounds given are as follows
ethyne  - C₂H₂
ethene - C₂H₄
ethane - C₂H₆
methane - CH₄
the actual ratios of the elements                 simplified ratio
                     C : H                                           C : H
ethyne            2:2                                             1:1
ethene            2:4                                             1:2
ethane            2:6                                             1:3
methane         1:4                                             1:4
the only compound where the actual ratio is equal to the simplified ratio is methane 
therefore in methane molecular formula CH₄ is the same as empirical formula CH₄

PLEASE HELP! (IM GIVING BRAINLIEST) Iron is a transition metal and, as such, can form two types of "oxide" salt compounds, FeO a
belka [17]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Iron exhibits two stable oxidation states, +2 and +3 states. The difference between FeO and Fe2O3 is that, in FeO, Fe is in the +2 oxidation state while in Fe2O3, Fe is in the +3 oxidation state

In FeO, iron looses two electrons which are gained by oxygen as follows;

Fe^2+ + O^2- -----> FeO

In Fe2O3, Fe looses six electrons while oxygen has gained six electrons as shown;

2Fe^3+ + 3O^2- ------>Fe2O3

3) Which pair of formulas represents the empirical formula and molecular
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is maybe letter D, but the last oxygen needs a number 6.

Explanation:

The empirical formula gives the actual elements that form part of a molecule but not the total numbers.

The molecular formula gives the total number of atoms of each element in a molecule.

We must factor the molecular formula to know if a formula is the empirical formula of that.

A.        CH₄    C₂H₆  =  2(CH₃)       these are not empirical molecular formulas

B.        CH₂O  C₄H₆O                     these are not empirical-molecular formulas      

C.        O₂        O₃                           these are not empirical-molecular formulas

D.        C₃H₄O₃   C₆H₈O                 these are not empirical-molecular formulas

                                                       the last oxygen needs a number 6 to be

                                                       the answer.

Describe an experiment for the preparation and collection of Oxygen sodium peroxide​
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Making oxygen

Oxygen can be made from hydrogen peroxide, which decomposes slowly to form water and oxygen:

hydrogen peroxide → water + oxygen

2H2O2(aq) → 2H2O(l) + O2(g)

The rate of reaction can be increased using a catalyst, manganese(IV) oxide. When manganese(IV) oxide is added to hydrogen peroxide, bubbles of oxygen are given off.

Apparatus arranged to measure the volume of gas in a reaction. Reaction mixture is in a flask and gas travels out through a pipe in the top and down into a trough of water. It then bubbles up through a beehive shelf into an upturned glass jar filled with water. The gas collects at the top of the jar, forcing water out into the trough below.

To make oxygen in the laboratory, hydrogen peroxide is poured into a conical flask containing some manganese(IV) oxide. The gas produced is collected in an upside-down gas jar filled with water. As the oxygen collects in the top of the gas jar, it pushes the water out.

Instead of the gas jar and water bath, a gas syringe could be used to collect the oxygen.
