Substance X is a compound containing 632mg of manganese and 368mg of oxygen. Substance X is shown
1 answer:
The empirical formula : MnO₂.
<h3>Further explanation</h3>Given
632mg of manganese(Mn) = 0.632 g
368mg of oxygen(O) = 0.368 g
M Mn = 55
M O = 16
Required
The empirical formula
Solution
You didn't include the pictures, but the steps for finding the empirical formula are generally the same
- Find mol(mass : atomic mass)
Mn : 0.632 : 55 = 0.0115
O : 0.368 : 16 =0.023
- Divide by the smallest mol(Mn=0.0115)
Mn : O =
The empirical formula : MnO₂

Explanation:
A solution is a mixture which contains two or more than two types of components and they can be separated by physical means as well.Example: salt water
Molecule of an element is defined as the aggregate of atoms of similar elements. Example: . Molecule of a compound is the aggregate of atoms of different elements in a fixed ratio by mass. Example:
Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions. Example:
A pure substance is a substance which contains definite composition of only one type of component. Hence, it cannot be separated by physical means. Example: Helium, water
