mechanical weathering

Mechanical weathering is the process of breaking big rocks into little ones. This process usually happens near the surface of the planet. Temperature also affects the land. The cool nights and hot days always cause things to expand and contract. That movement can cause rocks to crack and break apart.Mechanical weathering involves mechanical processes that break up a rock: for example, ice freezing and expanding in cracks in the rock.

which information must be known about a compound to find the molecular formula from the empirical formula​
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Molecular mass or vapor density

Explanation:

The empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound. The molecular formula expresses the exact formula of the compound. To derive the molecular formula, we need information about its molecular mass or if given the vapor density.

                (Empirical Formula)n = Molecular formula ------(i)

         n = number of repeating units of the empirical formula present in one                        mole of the molecule

          also, (molar mass of empirical formula)n = molar mass of compound

      From here, we can find n and insert in (i) above.
