Answer:
Empirical formula is CH₄
Molecular formula = C₂H₈
Explanation:
Mass of carbon = 37.5 g
Mass of hydrogen = 12.5 g
Molecular weight = 32 g/mol
Molecular formula = ?
Empirical formula = ?
Solution:
Number of gram atoms of C = 37.5 g /12g/mol = 3.125
Number of gram atoms of H = 12.5 g / 1.008 g/mol= 12.4
Atomic ratio:
C : H
3.125/3.125 : 12.4 /3.125
1 : 4
C : H : = 1 : 4
Empirical formula is CH₄
Molecular formula:
Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)
n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass
n = 32 / 16
n = 2
Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)
Molecular formula = 2 ( CH₄)
Molecular formula = C₂H₈
Answer:
Electronegativity in group 1 decreases as we go from Lithium to Francium.
Explanation:
Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an element to attract an electron pair towards itself.
In a group generally this tendency decreases from top to bottom as the size of the atom increases and hence the positive nucleus get far from the outer orbital.
In the same way group 1 elements i.e. from Lithium to Francium electronegativity decreases.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Noble gases are in group 18 (neon, argon, etc)
