The temperature of the earth gets HOTTER as you get closer to the CORE and COOLER as u move toward the SURFACE.
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound
calculating for 100 g of compound
C H O
mass 64.27 g 7.19 g 28.54 g
number of moles 64.27 g / 12 g/mol 7.19 g/1 g/mol 28.54 g / 16 g/mol
= 5.356 mol = 7.19 mol = 1.784 mol
divide by least number of moles
5.356 / 1.784 7.19 / 1.784 1.784 / 1.784
= 3.002 4.03 = 1.000
rounded off to nearest whole number
C - 3
H - 4
O - 1
empirical formula - C₃H₄O
mass of empirical formula = 12 g/mol x 3 + 1 g/mol x 4 + 16 g/mol x 1 = 56 g
molecular mass = 168.19 g/mol
molecular formula is the actual ratio of elements making up the compound
number of empirical units = molar mass of molecule / empirical mass
empirical units = 168.19 g/mol / 56 g = 3.00
there are 3 empirical units making up the molecular formula
molecular formula = 3 x C₃H₄O
molecular formula = C₉H₁₂O₃
I am pretty sure the answer is D
Answer:
a = 4
b = 3
Explanation:
<u>SOLUTION :-</u>
Balance it by using 'hit & trial' method , and you'll get the answer :-
2Fe₂O + 3C → <u>4</u>Fe + <u>3</u>CO₂
⇒ a = 4 ; b = 3
<u></u>
<u>VERIFICATION :-</u>
<em>In reactant side of equation :-</em>
- Number of atoms in Fe = 2×2 = 4
- Number of atoms in O = 2×3 = 6
- Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3
<em>In product side of equation :-</em>
- Number of atoms in Fe = 4×1 = 4
- Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3
- Number of atoms in O = 3×2 = 6
Number of atoms of each element is equal in both reactant & product side of equation. Hence , the equation is balanced.
