The empirical formula of the metal oxide would be 
<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>
Mass of scandium = 0.502g
Mass of scandium + oxygen = 0.768g
Mass of oxygen = 0.768 - 0.502 = 0.266g
Mole of scandium = 0.502/44.95 = 0.011
Mole of oxygen = 0.266/16 = 0.017
Divide by the lowest:
Scandium = 0.011/0.011 = 1
Oxygen = 0.017.0.011 = 1.5
Thus, the empirical formula of the compound would be

Answer :
(1) The number of valence electrons present in the compound is, 20
(2) The number of bonded electrons present in the compound is, 16
(3) The number of lone pair electrons present in the compound is, 4
(4) The number of single bonds present in the compound is, 8
Explanation :
Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.
In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.
The given molecule is, 
As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, hydrogen has '1' valence electrons and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.
Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in
= 2(4) + 6(1) + 6 = 20
According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 16 number of bonding electrons and 4 number of non-bonding electrons or lone pair of electrons.
The Lewis-dot structure of
is shown below.
Answer:
Chromatography uses chromatography paper which is filter paper that is made of cellulose, a polymer. Cellulose is polar, therefore it attracts water molecules, as well as other polar substances. As the solvent reacts with the paper, it competes for the attraction of the molecules being separated.

Answer: 996 mmHg
Explanation:
According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at NTP, weighs equal to the molecular mass and contains avogadro's number
of particles.
According to the ideal gas equation:

P = Pressure of the gas = ?
V= Volume of the gas = 25.5 L
T= Temperature of the gas = 13°C = (273+13) K = 286K
R= Gas constant = 0.0821 atmL/K mol
n= moles of gas= 1.42
(760mmHg=1atm)
Thus pressure of this gas sample is 996 mm Hg.
