Answer:

MoClBr₂

Explanation:

First we calculate the mass of bromine in the compound:

  • 300.00 g - (82.46224 g + 45.741 g) = 171.79676 g

Then we<u> calculate the number of moles of each element</u>, using their <em>respective molar masses</em>:

  • 82.46224 g Mo ÷ 95.95 g/mol = 0.9594 mol Mo
  • 45.741 g Cl ÷ 35.45 g/mol = 1.290 mol Cl
  • 171.79676 g Br ÷79.9 g/mol = 2.150 mol Br

Now we <u>divide those numbers of moles by the lowest number among them</u>:

  • 0.9594 mol Mo / 0.9594 = 1
  • 1.290 mol Cl / 0.9594 = 1.34 ≅ 1
  • 2.150 mol Br / 0.9594 = 2.24 ≅ 2

Meaning the empirical formula is MoClBr₂.

BigorU [14]

Mass of CO₂ = 132 g

<h3>Further explanation   </h3>

A mole is a number of particles(atoms, molecules, ions)  in a substance

This refers to the atomic total of the 12 gr C-12  which is equal to 6.02.10²³, so 1 mole = 6.02.10²³ particles  

Can be formulated :

N = n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = 6.02.10²³ = Avogadro's number

mole also can be formulated :

\tt n=\dfrac{mass}{MW}

moles of CO₂ = 3

mass of CO₂(MW=44.01 g/mol) :

\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=3\times 44.01\\\\mass=132.03~g\approx 132~g

raketka [301]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because the result of the described experiment would have better determined the type of scientific explanation to profer. However, the type of material that will preserve the relative hotness or temperature of the hot coffee for the longest time will be a material than can resist heat transfer. These materials tend to keep hot substances hot by not allowing the heat of the coffee to be conducted or pass through it. These materials are mostly insulators or made by placing an insulator between two heat conductors.

Generally, heat is usually transferred from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration, hence when the heat is denied of this transfer, the heat will remain trapped in the "heat-donor" substance (in this case the hot coffee). Thus, the material chosen (A, B or C) will be the material that resists heat transfer the most based on the explanation above.
