Answer:

Explanation:

C = 41.4/12 = 3.43

H = 3.47/1 = 3.47

O = 55.1/16 =3.44

CHO is the skeletal formula (divide each by the lowest number above). The results are close enough to 1 to be 1.

(CHO)_x = 116

C + H + O = 29

(29) _ x = 116

x = 116/29

x = 4

So there area 4 carbons 4 hydrogens and 4 oxygens.

The correct formula is C4H4O4

Scoring Scheme: 3-3-2-1 Part II. You considered the properties of two acid-base indicators, phenolphthalein and methyl orange. M
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Explanation:

Phenolphthalein is a protonated indicator and methyl orange is a basic indicator having hydroxyl ionisable part .

Phenolphthalein can be represented by the following formula

HPh  which ionizes in water as follows

       HPh        + H₂O      ⇄    H₃O⁺      +        Ph⁻

( colourless  )                    ( pink  )

In acidic solution it is in the form of protonated Hph form which is colourless

In basic medium , it ionises to give H₃O⁺ and unprotonated  Ph⁻ whose colour is pink .

An atom gets over all positive charge by ____ _______
Rasek [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Nucleus.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>
  • In an atom the nucleus has an overall positive charge as it contains the protons.
  • Every atom has no overall charge (neutral). While atoms do contain charged particles, they have the same number of positive protons as negative electrons( for example a sodium atom has 11 electrons which are of negative charge and 11 protons which are of positive charge).
  • These opposite charges cancel each other out making the atom neutral.

Result: Nucleus is the overall positive charge of an atom.
