<span>Answer: HgNO₃
</span><span />

<span>Explanation:
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
The empirical formula is the formula that shows the ratio of the atoms in its simplest form, this is using the smallest whole numbers.
</span><span />

<span>The empirical formula may or may not be the same molecular formula.
</span><span />

<span>In this case you are given the molecular formula Hg₂(NO₃)₂. Since, the ratio of the atoms of Hg, N, and O is 2: 2: 6, respectively, the same ratio is expressed if you divide by the greatest common factor (GCF).
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>The GCF of 2, 2, and 6 is 2. So, the ratios can be simplified to 1:1:3, meaning 1 mol of Hg, 1 mol of N, and 3 mol of O or HgNO₃.</span>

Calculate the total mass of the protons and electrons in 19 9F. Use 1.007825 amu as the mass of 11H (mass of a proton and an ele
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Explanation:

Atomic mass means the sum of total number of protons and neutrons present in an atom.

When an atom is neutral then number of protons equal the number of electrons.

Mass of a proton equals to 1.007276 u, mass of neutron equals to 1.008664 u.

For example, in a ^{19}_{9}F atom there are total 9 protons and number of neutrons is 19 - 9 = 10.

Since, it is a neutral atom so number of electrons will also be 9.

So, total mass will be calculated as follows.

                  Total mass = 9 (mass of electron + mass of proton)

                                      = 9 (1.007825 u)

                                      = 9.07043 u

Therefore, we can conclude that total mass of protons and electrons in ^{19}_{9}F is  9.07043 u.

1. Which statement is accurate?
valkas [14]

1. Answer:

B) An allele is one form of a gene.

Explanation:

  • <em><u>An allele refers to an alternative form of a gene. In other words it is one of the form of a gene.</u></em>
  • <em><u>A gene may have two alleles, where one of the allele is a dominant allele and the other is a recessive allele. </u></em>
  • A homozygous organisms may be dominant or recessive, a homozygous recessive contains two recessive alleles while a homozygous dominant contains two dominant alleles.
  • A heterozygous organisms contain one dominant allele and one recessive allele.

2. Answer;

B) Alleles

Explanation;

  • <em><u>According to Mendel genes are inherited in pairs of alleles that behave in a dominant and recessive pattern. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Alleles are alternative forms of a gene. </u></em>
  • A gene may have two alleles, where one of the allele is a dominant allele and the other is a recessive allele.
  • A homozygous organisms may be dominant or recessive, a homozygous recessive contains two recessive alleles while a homozygous dominant contains two dominant alleles.

Hydrogen gas, iodine vapor, hydrogen iodine are mixed in a flask and heated to 696°C. H2(g) + I2(g) ⇋ 2 HI(g) Kc = 52 at 696°C I
Anettt [7]

Answer: The equilibrium concentration of hydrogen gas is 0.0269 M

Explanation:

The chemical reaction follows the equation:

                  H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2HI(g)

At t = 0          0.044M     0.044M              0.177M  

At t=t_{eq}    (0.044-x)M    (0.044-x)M      (0.177+x)M

The expression for K_c for the given reaction follows:

K_c=\frac{[HI]^2}{[H_2]\times [I_2]}

We are given:

K_c=52

Putting values in above equation, we get:

52=\frac{(0.177+x)^2}{(0.044-x)^2}

x=0.0171M

Hence, the equilibrium concentration of hydrogen gas is (0.044-x) M =(0.044-0.0171) M= 0.0269 M
