Give two reasons why the flame test is sometimes invalid
zlopas [31]
The two reason behind the invalidity of flame test are false positive and false negative.
while performing the flame test you must have to be accurate otherwise you will get false results may be positive for some element or may be negative in case the element is present. The main reason to get the false positive and false negative is the presence and contamination of sodium.

2. The empirical formula of a molecule is CH2O. In an experiment, the molar mass of the molecule was determined to be 360.3 g/mo
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

2.- C₁₂ H₂₄ O₁₂

Explanation:

2.-

Data

CH2O

molar mass = 360.3 g/mol

Molar mass of CH2O = 12 + 2 + 16 = 30g

Divide molar mass given by molar mass obtain

                   

                           x = 360.3/30

                          x = 12

Finally

                      C₁₂ H₂₄ O₁₂

Molar mass = (12 x 12) + (24 x 1) + (16 x 12) = 144 + 24 + 192 = 360 g

3.- First we need to write the complete equation of the reaction and balanced it.

Then, we need to convert the mass given to moles of each compound.

After that, we need used rule of three calculate the amount of products based on the moles of reactants given.

Finally, convert the moles to grams.

4.-

a.- It is a relation between the mass of product obtain in an experiment and the mass of a product obtain theoretically times 100.

b.-

35 g of Mg reacted with excess O2

percent yield = 90%

Actual yield = ?

Formula

Percent yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield) x 100

Equation  

                       2Mg  + O2 ⇒ 2MgO

                      48.62 g of Mg ----------------- 80.62 g of MgO

                      35g                  ------------------  x

                     x = 58 g of MgO     (Theoretical yield)

Theoretical yield = 58 g of MgO

Actual yield = percent yield x theoretical yield / 100

                    = 90 x 58 / 100

                   = 52. 23 g

Which compound reacts with an acid to produce water and a salt
Hatshy [7]
I'm not exactly sure which one but I do know that an acid and a base react in a aqueous solution to form water, so i would probably eliminate the ones that aren't aqueous solutions.

Explanation:

                               Mg⁺²-24                     Co⁺³-60                     Clˉ-35    

Protons (p⁺)                12                                 27                             17              

Neutrons (n⁰)             12                                 33                             18              

Electrons (eˉ)             10                                 24                             18              

                                  (c)                                 (b)                            (a)

                         12/2 : 12/2 : 10/2      27/3 : 33/3 : 24/3        #n⁰ = 18

                             6    :    6   :    5          9  :   11  :   8             #eˉ = 18
