6 0

Answer:

XZ2

Explanation:

There are different ways in which compounds can be represented. Broadly, we have three different types of formula;

- Structural formular: This shows how th atoms in te compound are connected to each other.

- Molecular formular: This shows the actual number of atoms of element present in the compound

- Empirical Formular: This is the simplest formular of a compound. It basically shows the number of atoms in simple ration to each other.

This question requires us to input the empirical formular;

X2Z4

The ratio of the elements is; 2 : 4 which can be simplified into 1 : 2

This means the empirical formular is XZ2

If the pressure changes from 1 atm to 3 atm, what does the volume of 30 L change to
DiKsa [7]

Answer: 10L

Explanation:

Given that:

Initial pressure P1 = 1 atm

New pressure P2 = 3 atm

Initial volume V2 = 30 L

New volume V2 = ?

Since pressure and volume are involved, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

1 atm x 30L = 3 atm x V2

30 atm L = 3 atm x V2

V2 = (30 atm L / 3 atm)

V2 = 10L

Thus, volume changed to 10 liters

Igoryamba

Answer: F.    Electron pair acceptor

Explanation:

A Lewis acid can be properly defined as any substance such as  H+ (hygrogen ion) that can accept a pair of electron.

While a Lewis base is any substance such as (OH-) that can donate a pair of electron.

In the neutralization reaction between an acid ( H+ ) and a base (OH-). Hydrogen ion (H+ ) is the Lewis acid because it accepts an electron pair from (OH-).

Other examples of Lewis acid are;  Mg2+, K+
