Calculate the empirical formula the compound with the following percent composition: 27.59%C 1.15%H 16.09%N 55.17%O
jeyben [28]

Answer: C2HNO3

Explanation: C = 27.59/12.011 = 2.297

H = 1.15/1.008 = 1.1409

N = 16.09/14.007 = 1.1487

O = 55.17/15.999 = 3.4483

Divide by smallest result:

C = 2

H=1

N=1

O = 3

Empirical formula = C2HNO3

What must be true for a substance to be able to dissolve in water?
zvonat [6]

In order for a solute to dissolve in a solvent, the attractive forces between solute particles and the solvent particles must be stronger than the attractive forces between solute-solute and solvent-solvent particles. This is important so that the solute will remain in solution.

If you lived in Alaska, which of the following natural gases could you keep in an outdoor storage tank in winter: a. Methane (CH
wariber [46]

Answer:

Methane

Explanation:

The gas that you could keep in an outdoor storage tank in winter in Alaska is Methane.

The reason is the extreme low temperature during the winter. The boiling point of butane is 44 ºF ( -1ºC) and that of propane is a higher -43.6 º F but still within the range of average minimum winter temperature in Alaska (-50 ªF). Therefore we will have condensation in the tanks and not enough gas pressure.

Methane having  a boling point  of  -259 ºF will not condense at the low wintertime temperatures in Alaska.
