A molecule is defined as two or more atoms of the same element different element that are bound together. A molecule may be homonuclear, which means, it consists of atoms of one chemical element, as with oxygen (O2); or it may be heteronuclear, a chemical compound composed of more than one element, as with water (H2O).

A compound made of two elements, iridium (Ir) and oxygen (O), was produced in a lab by heating iridium while exposed to air. The
natima [27]
1) Compund Ir (x) O(y)

2) Mass of iridium = mass of crucible and iridium - mass of crucible = 39.52 g - 38.26 g = 1.26 g

3) Mass of iridium oxide = mass of crucible and iridium oxide - mass of crucible = 39.73g - 38.26g = 1.47g

4) Mass of oxygen = mass of iridum oxide - mass of iridium = 1.47g - 1.26g = 0.21g

5) Convert grams to moles

moles of iridium = mass of iridium / molar mass of iridium = 1.26 g / 192.17 g/mol = 0.00656 moles

moles of oxygen = mass of oxygen / molar mass of oxygen = 0.21 g / 15.999 g/mol = 0.0131

6) Find the proportion of moles

Divide by the least of the number of moles, i.e. 0.00656

Ir: 0.00656 / 0.00656 = 1

O: 0.0131 / 0.00656 = 2

=> Empirical formula = Ir O2 (where 2 is the superscript for O)

Answer: Ir O2

What is the noble-gas configuration for As​
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Noble gas Electronic configuration of arsenic:

As₃₃ = [Ar] 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p³

Explanation:

Arsenic is metalloid.

Its atomic number is 33.

Its atomic mass is 75 amu.

Its symbol is As.

It is usually present in combine with sulfur and metals.

it is used in bronzing.

It is also used for hardening.

Electronic configuration:

As₃₃ = Is² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p³

Noble gas Electronic configuration:

As₃₃ = [Ar] 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p³

Noble gas electronic configuration is shortest electronic configuration by using the noble gas elements full octet electronic configuration.

How does the amount of space between particles differ in the ballon and helium cylinder
Ivanshal [37]
In a balloon there is a low pressure within the balloon. This means that the particles are more spaced out. Wheras in the cylinder they are under high pressure, meaning that the particles are much closer together!
