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

Property of a fluid by which molecules of different kinds of fluids are attracted to each other is called.
Dmitry [639]

Property of a fluid by which molecules of different kinds of fluids are attracted to each other is called adhesion.

Adhesion is the tendency of molecules of different kinds of fluids to cling to one another.

The forces responsable for the adhesion are the intermolecular forces.

One of the intermolecular forces is the London dispersion force. It is a temporary attractive force between molecules.

There are three types of adhesion: chemical adhesion, dispersive adhesion, and diffusive adhesion.

Cohesion is similar to adhesion, but it refers to identical or similar kinds of fluids to cling to one another.
