Answer:

C₆H₆

Explanation:

Molar mass of the compound is 78g/mol

Unknown:

Molecular formula of the compound  = ?

Solution:

The empirical formula of the compound is CH.

Empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound.

To solve this problem:

 Find the molar mass of CH;

       Molar mass = 12 + 1  = 13g/mol

Multiplication index  = \frac{78}{13}    = 6

So;

              (CH)₆  ;

 Therefore:

               C₆H₆

dolphi86 [110]
Greetings!

Significant Digits are:
-Non Zero Numbers
-Zeros in between Non Zero Numbers
-Trailing zeros to the right of the decimal point

So when rounding to 4 significant figures, we get:
1023

Hope this helps.

Given the starting solution had a concentration of 1.25 m, how many moles of co[h2o]6cl2 were available in the amount of startin
siniylev [52]
Molarity of solution is defined as number of moles present in one liter solution. Mathematically, it is expressed as 
Molarity = \frac{\text{number of moles}}{\text{volume of solution(l)}}

Thus, if 1 mole of solute is present in 1 liter solution, molarity of solution is 1 M.

In present case, initial conc, of solution was 1.25 M.

∴ Number of moles of <span>co[h2o]6cl2  available initially = 1.25 mole, if the solution is 1 liter</span>

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

pH reducing agent for acidic soils

Explanation:

Gypsum is not used to reduce soil pH because it will displace the soil H+ but there's no means of extracting the H from the soil. So the pH of the soil remains the same.

A mixture of 10 cm3 of methane and 10 cm3 of ethane was sparked with an excess of oxygen. After cooling to room temperature, thr
Tpy6a [65]
In the combustion process using excess oxygen, each mole of methane results to 1 mole of co2 while ethane produces 2 moles of Co2. Under same conditions, these can be translated to volume. Hence the total volume absorbed is 10 cm3 + 20 cm3 = 30 cm3.
