Answer:

C₃H₃NaO₂

Explanation:

The percentage composition of the artificial snow is given.

The smallest whole number ratio of the atoms in a compound gives the empirical formula.

To find the empirical formula of the artificial snow, we use the method below;

Percentage composition of oxygen  = 100 - (38.3+3.33+ 24.4) = 33.97

Elements                            C                     H              Na             O

Percentage

Composition                   38.3                   3.22         24.4          33.97

Number of

moles                           38.3/12                  3.22/1     24.4/23     33.97/16

                                       3.19                     3.22        1.06             2.12

Divide by

the smallest               3.19/1.06                3.22/1.06  1.06/1.06     2.12/1.06

                                        3                             3               1                2

The empirical formula of the compound is C₃H₃NaO₂

Answer:

<h3>The answer is kinetic energy</h3>

Explanation:

<h2>The answer is Kinetic Energy because take for an example,  When an apple falls from the tree to the ground, its energy of position is then made into kinetic energy, the energy of motion, as it falls to the ground. </h2>

The following conditions must be met before a standard calibration curve equation can be used to solve for the concentration of
zzz [600]

Answer:

The same instrument must be used to measure the unknown solution as was used to measure the known (standard) solutions that were used to create the calibration curve.

The analyte in the unknown solution must be the same analyte (or type of analyte) that is present in the known (standard) solutions that were used to create the calibration curve.

Domain and range restrictions must be observed.

Explanation:

Calibration curves are tools necessary in understanding the instrumental response for any analyte.

A calibration curve is obtained by preparing a set of  standard solutions with known concentrations of the analyte. The instrument response for each concentration is measured  and plotted against the concentration of the standard solution. The linear portion of this plot may be used to determine the unknown concentration of a sample of the analyte.  

The equation of the best-fit line is  used to determine the concentration of the unknown sample.
