D. Gravity is a dent in the fabric of space and time.
or
B. Radium is a radioactive element.
B. It is open to change as new evidence or data is discovered. If scientists discover new evidence, they must modify their theories to conform with the new data.
A. is <em>incorrect</em>. Scientific laws are so well established that there can be no exceptions.
C. is <em>incorrect</em>. A scientific theory is the collective judgement of scientists as to the best explanation for a phenomenon. A new observation may require modification of the theory.
D. is <em>incorrect</em>. Advancements in technology can provide new evidence that requires new explanations.
<span>: The empirical formula for the compound is C3H60 (see below)
CO2 is the only product containing C,
C produced = 145.0 mg CO2 x (1 g / 1000 mg) x (1 mole CO2 / 44.0 g CO2) x (1 mole C / 1 mole CO2) = 0.00330 moles C.
H2O is the only product containing H,
H produced = 59.38 mg H2O x (1 g / 1000 mg) x (1 mole H2O / 18.0 g H2O) x (2 moles H / 1 mole H2O) = 0.00660 moles H.
Oxygen is in both and the unknown reacts with oxygen(in the air)
0.00330 moles C x (12.0 g C / 1 mole C) = 0.0396 g C = 39.6 mg C
0.00660 moles H x (1.01 g H / 1 mole H) = 0.00667 g H = 6.7 mg H
Because the unknown weighed 63.8 mg and consists off justC, H, and O, then
mass O = g unknown - g C - g H = 63.8 mg - 39.6 mg - 6.7 mg = 17.5 mg = 0.0175 g
0.0175 g O x (1 mole O / 16.0 g O) = 0.00109 moles O
The mole ratio of C:H:O is:
C = 0.00330
H = 0.00660
O = 0.00109
Divide by the smallest you get:
C = 0.00330 / 0.00109 = 3.03
H = 0.00660 / 0.00109 = 6.06
O = 0.00109 / 0.00109 = 1.00</span>
Yes because water turns into vapor
