The empirical formula is a formula of a compound showing the proportion of each element involved in the compounds but it does not represent the total number of atoms in the compound. It is the lowest number of ratio between the elements in the compound. In order, to determine the actual number of the atoms or the molecular formula of the compounds, we make use of the molar mass of the compound.
<span>To
determine the molecular formula, we multiply a value to the empirical formula.
Then, calculate the molar mass and see whether it is equal to the one
given (104.1 g/ mol). From the choices, the only valid options are b, d and e.

1 CH 13.02
8 C8H8 104.16
6 C6H6 78.12
Therefore the correct answer is option B.
Answer:
B. Ionic Compound
Explanation:
An ionic compound is that compound which contains a positively charged ion called CATION and a negatively charged ion called ANION. The cation loses or transfers electrons to the anion, hence, making the former (cation) positive and the latter (anion) negative.
A polyatomic ion is an ion that contains more than one type of atom e.g OH-, NO3²-, CO3²- etc. A polyatomic ion usually has an overall charge formed from the charges of the individual atoms that makes it up. For example, in OH-, the overall charge is -1.
Since a polyatomic ion can have an overall positive or negative charge, it must enter a reaction with another ion that complements it i.e. a negative polyatomic ion will react with a positive ion to neutralize its charge. Hence, this forms an IONIC COMPOUND. This is why most compounds with polyatomic ions are IONIC COMPOUNDS.
For example, CaCO3 is an ionic compound formed when Ca²+ (cation) reacts with the polyatomic anion: CO3²-
Q or the Reaction Quotient is the interaction between the reactants and products in a given chemical reaction. The value of Q should be compared to the value of K (which is the value of the reaction at equilibrium) in order to determine which way the reaction should move to achieve equilibrium.If Q is already equal to K, then this indicates that the reaction is in equilibrium. If Q>K, then the reactants are converted to products; If Q<K, then the products are converted to reactants. Either way, the reaction proceeds to move towards equilibrium after some time.
To try to get attention, it's not safe and you can get sent to the hospital. People think it's a joke, it's really not.
