Answer:

The empirical formula is, C4H4S

Explanation:

Number of moles of carbon = 1.119 g/ 44g/mol = 0.025 moles

Mass of Carbon= 0.025 moles × 12 g/ mole = 0.3 g

Number of moles of hydrogen = 0.229/18g/mol × 2 = 0.025 moles

Mass of hydrogen = 0.025 moles × 1 = 0.025 g

Number of moles of sulphur = 0.407g/ 64 g/mol = 0.0064 moles

Mass of sulphur= 0.0064 moles ×32 = 0.2 g

Now we obtain the mole ratios by dividing through by the lowest ratio.

C- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, H- 0.025 moles/ 0.0064 moles, S- 0.0064 moles/0.0064 moles

C4H4S

What is the definition of bond length?
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

C: No correct response

Explanation:

Bond length is simply defined as the distance between two atoms that are participating in a bond.

Now, looking at the options, none of the options correctly defines it this way. The closest is option E which is "distance between two electrons" but it uses the word electrons instead of atoms. Thus none of the statements are correct
