Answer:

16:1

Explanation:

Atoms of element X weigh 32 times more than atoms of element Y. We can write this in a symbolic way.

mX = 32 mY   [1]

where,

  • mX and mY are the masses of X and Y, respectively

A compound has the formula: XY₂, that is, in 1 molecule of XY₂ there is 1 atom of X and 2 atoms of Y. The ratio of the mass of X to the mass of Y in this compound equals:

mX/2 mY  [2]

If we substitute [1] in [2], we get:

mX/2 mY = 32 mY/2 mY = 16 = 16:1

A layer of sandstone is found on top of a layer of shale. What most likely happened in this area?
storchak [24]

Answer:

Mud was deposited first, then sand.

Explanation:

This could have been a tidal mud flat succeeded by a sandy beach, or along the bed and course of a river with either mountain building upstream causing faster flow and carrying of mud farther away or the sea level falling with mud deposits being found closer to the new coastline. Hope this helps!

How does H2So4 break up to h+ & hso4 - ?
Katena32 [7]
H2So4 is a strong acid and a strong electrolyte which means that when this dissociates in water, the dissociation process is complete. The first dissociation is 

H2 SO4 = H + HSO4- 

This can further release H+ and dissociate SO4- instead already

V1T2 = V2T1 is an expression of who’s law
Andru [333]

<u>Answer:</u>

It is the expression of Charles' Law.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given expression V1T2 = V2T1 is the formula for the Charles' Law.

A special case of an ideal gas is named as the Charles' Law. This law applies to ideal gases only which are at constant pressure.

According to this law, the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature and is given by:

V1T2 = V2T1

On combustion, 1.0 L of a gaseous compound of hydrogen, carbon, and sulfur gives 2.0 L of CO2, 3.0 L of H2O vapor, and 1.0 L of
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The empirical formula of the organic compound is  = C_2H_6S_1

Explanation:

At STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.

Moles of CO_2 gas at STP occupying 2.0 L = n

n\times 22.4L=2.0L

n=\frac{2.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.08929 mol

Moles of carbon in 0.08920 mol = 1 × 0.08920 mol = 0.08920 mol

Moles of H_2O gas at STP occupying 3.0 L = n'

n'\times 22.4L=3.0L

n'=\frac{3.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.1339 mol

Moles of hydrogen in 0.1339 moles of water vapor = 2 × 0.1339 mol = 0.2678 mol

Moles of SO_2 gas at STP occupying 1.0 L = n''

n''\times 22.4L=1.0L

n''=\frac{1.0 L}{22.4 L}=0.04464 mol

Moles of sulfur in 0.04464 mol = 1 × 0.04464 mol = 0.04464 mol

Moles of carbon , hydrogen and sulfur constituent of that organic compound .

Moles of carbon in 0.08920 mol = 1 × 0.08920 mol = 0.08920 mol

Moles of hydrogen in 0.1339 moles of water vapor = 2 × 0.1339 mol = 0.2678 mol

Moles of sulfur in 0.04464 mol = 1 × 0.04464 mol = 0.04464 mol

For empirical; formula divide the least number of moles from all the moles of elements.

carbon = \frac{0.08920 mol}{0.04464 mol}=2

Hydrogen =  \frac{0.2678 mol}{0.04464 mol}=6

Sulfur = \frac{0.04464 mol}{0.04464 mol}=1

The empirical formula of the organic compound is  = C_2H_6S_1
