The empirical formula for this vitamin : C₃H₄O₃
<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound =mole ratio of the components
The principle of determining empirical formula
- Determine the mass ratio of the constituent elements of the compound.
- Determine the mole ratio by dividing the percentage by the atomic mass
Mass of C in CO₂ :(MW C = 12 g/mol, CO₂=44 g/mol)

Mass of H in H₂O :(MW H = 1 g/mol, H₂O = 18 g/mol)

Mass O = Mass sample - (mass C + mass H) :

mol ratio C : H : O =

By the second law of thermodynamics:
Heat can not spontaneously flow from cold regions to hot regions without external work being performed on a system.
Heat transfer is the passage of thermal energy from a hot ( t B = 80° C ) to a colder body ( t A = 40° C ).
Answer: B ) Heat flows from object B to object A.
Answer:
Explanation:
Catalyst is I2 . Because I2 is reacted with starting material in step 1 and generated in second step
Rate limiting step is step 1. Because in rate equation CH3CHO and I2 is mentioned. Hence the overall rate of reaction is depending CH3CHO and I2. Rate limiting step is step 1
Answer: 5.4
Explanation: The Law of Impenetrability says that two objects can't occupy the same space at the same time; therefore, the pennies and the water can't occupy the same space at the same time. Without the pennies the water level read 20.6 mL, dropping in the pennies gives a level of 26.0.
Answer:
Q = 30355.2 J
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of ice = 120 g
Initial temperature = -5°C
Final temperature = 115°C
Energy required = ?
Solution:
Specific heat capacity of ice is = 2.108 j/g.°C
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
Q = m.c. ΔT
ΔT = T2 -T1
ΔT = 115 - (-5°C)
ΔT = 120 °C
Q = 120 g × 2.108 j/g.°C × 120 °C
Q = 30355.2 J
