Answer:

CH4

Explanation:

The number of moles of carbon and hydrogen has been given as follows:

C = ​0.300 mol​ ​

H = ​1.20 mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (0.300)

C = 0.300 ÷ 0.300 = 1

H = 1.20 ÷ 0.300 = 4

The empirical ratio of Carbon and Hydrogen is 1:4, hence, the empirical formula is CH4

Calculate the ratio of the mass ratio of SS to OO in SOSO to the mass ratio of SS to OO in SO2SO2. Consider a sample of SOSO in
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The ratio of the mass ratio of S to O; in SO, to the mass ratio of S to O; in SO₂, is  2:1

Explanation:

According to the consideration, let us first find the ratio of S and O in both the compounds

For SO:

\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }= \frac{32}{16}\\\\   \frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }= 2

Let us express it as

SO_{\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }} = 2

For SO₂,

Due to two oxygen atoms in the molecule, the mass of oxygen will be taken two times

\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }= \frac{32}{(2)(16)}\\\\   \frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }= 1

Let us express it as

SO_2_{\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }}= 1

Now, for the ratio of both the above-calculated ratios,

\frac{SO_{\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }}}{SO_2_{\frac{m_{S} }{m_{O} }}}=\frac{2}{1}

The required ratio is 2:1

Mercury has a mass density of 13.54 g/ml . how many milliliters would 100. grams occupy
frosja888 [35]
<span>7.39 ml For this problem, simply divide the mass of mercury you have by it's density. 100 g / 13.54 g/ml = 7.3855 ml Since we only have 3 significant digits in 100., you need to round the result to 3 significant digits. So 7.3855 ml = 7.39 ml</span>

Answer:

54

Barium atomic number is 56, this means that it has 56 protons in its nucleus and put it as a period 6 element. an uncharged barium atom would have 56 electron also. However as a group 2 element barium easily loses 2 electron to form the +2 cation. the ions has 56-2=54

Beryllium has a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons. Given the data, how many protons are in a typical Beryllium nucleus?
Jlenok [28]

Atoms are made of 3 types of subatomic particles ; protons, neutrons and electrons

protons and neutrons are located inside the nucleus and electrons are found in energy shells around the nucleus. Protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged and neutrons are neutral. elements in their ground state are neutral with equal amounts of protons and electrons.

Atomic number is the number of protons. atomic number is characteristic for the element.

atomic number of Be is 4 therefore Be has 4 protons

answer is B. 4
