Answer:

B. The number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical  formula.

Explanation:

It is not always true that the number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical formula.

The chemical formulae of a compound are of two main types;

  • The empirical formula is that which expresses the composition of a compound in the simplest whole number ratio.
  • The molecular formula shows the actual ratio of the atoms in a compound.

Sometimes the number of atoms in the molecular and empirical formula can be the same.

Also, the number of atoms in the molecular formula is always greater than that of the empirical formula when they are not the same.

bogdanovich [222]
Glycosidic bonds in starch and ester bonds in triglycerides. The glycosidic bond is considered to be the covalent synthetic bonds that connection ring-molded sugar particles to different atoms. The frame by a buildup response between a liquor or amine of one particle and the anomeric carbon of the sugar, and hence, might be O-connected or N-connected.

What is the wavelength of a 2500 kg truck traveling at a rate of 75km/h?
Pepsi [2]

m = mass of the truck traveling = 2500 kg

v = speed of the truck traveling = 75 km/h = 75 (km/h) (1000 m/ 1 km) (1 h /3600 sec) = 20.83 m/s

h = plank's constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴

λ = wavelength of truck = ?

according to de broglie's principle, wavelength of truck is given as

λ = h/(mv)

inserting the values in the above equation

λ = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴)/((2500) (20.83))

λ = 1.3 x 10⁻³⁸ m
