denis23 [38]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

4

Explanation:

It should be 4

The mass is 9

There are 5    neutrons

There are 9 - 5 = 4 protons

So it is the 4th element on the periodic table.

The empirical formula of glucose is CH2O the molecular formula of glucose is 6 times than the empirical formula. what is the mol
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The molecular formula of glucose is C₆H₁₂O₆

Explanation:

Empirical formula:

It is the simplest formula gives the ratio of smallest whole number of atoms.

Molecular formula:

It gives the total number of atoms in a molecule of compound.

The molecular formula and empirical formula can be related as follow:

Molecular formula = n × empirical formula

Given data:

Empirical formula = CH₂O

Molecular formula = ?

It is stated in given problem that molecular formula is the 6 times of the empirical formula.

Molecular formula = n × empirical formula

Molecular formula = 6 × CH₂O

Molecular formula = C₆H₁₂O₆

The molecular formula of glucose is C₆H₁₂O₆.

S + 02<br> C + 02<br> Cu0 + H2SO4
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

S + 02= S0 - 4 e- → SIV (oxidation); 2 O0 + 4 e- → 2 O-II (reduction)

C + 02= C

Cu0 + H2SO4= CuO + H2SO4 → CuSO4 + H2O

Which atom in each pair has the larger atomic radius?
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

1. Potassium, K.

2. Calcium, Ca.

3. Gallium, Ga.

4. Carbon, C.

5. Bromine, Br.

6. Barium, Ba.

7. Silicon, Si.

8. Gold, Au.

Explanation:

Atomic radius can be defined as a measure of the size (distance) of the atom of a chemical element such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen etc, typically from the nucleus to the valence electrons. The atomic radius of a chemical element decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon). Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).

Additionally, the unit of measurement of the atomic radius of chemical elements is picometers (1 pm = 10 - 12 m).

1. Li or K: the atomic radius of lithium is 167 pm while that of potassium is 243 pm.

2. Ca or Ni: the atomic radius of calcium is 194 pm while that of nickel is 149 pm.

3. Ga or B: the atomic radius of gallium is 136 pm while that of boron is 87 pm.

4. O or C: the atomic radius of oxygen is 48 pm while that of carbon is 67 pm.

5. Cl or Br: the atomic radius of chlorine is 79 pm while that of bromine is 94 pm.

6. Be or Ba: the atomic radius of berryllium is 112 pm while that of barium is 253 pm.

7. Si or S: the atomic radius of silicon is 111 pm while that of sulphur is 88 pm.

8. Fe or Au: the atomic radius of iron is 156 pm while that of gold is 174 pm.
