Answer: The molecular formula will be C_6O_3H_{12}

Explanation:

Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.  

Empirical weight of C_2OH_{4} is 12\times 2+16\times 1+1\times 4=44g

Molecular mass of compound is = 132 g

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{\text{Equivalent weight}}=\frac{132}{44}=3

The molecular formula will be=3\times C_2OH_4=C_6O_3H_{12}

what is the freezing point of a 0.195m aqueous solution of K2S? (Report amount to three decimal points)
Solnce55 [7]
The freezing point depression of water is 1.86°C/m.kg 
<span>K2S dissociates: </span>
<span>K2S ↔ 2K+ + S 2- </span>
<span>1mol K2S will produce 3 mol of ions. </span>
<span>Therefore in the freezing point equation: i = 3 </span>
<span>Depression of freezing point = Kf * i* m </span>
<span>Depression of freezing point = 1.86*3*0.195 </span>
<span>Depression of freezing point = 1.088°C </span>
<span>The solution will freeze at - 1.088°C </span>

How do the percent compositions for C3H6 and C4H7 compare?
mariarad [96]

A. They are the same

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

C3H6 and C4H8

Required

The percent compositions

Solution

  • C₃H₆(MW = 42 g/mol)

%C = 3.12/42 x 100% = 85.71%

%H = 6.1/42 x 1005 = 14.29%

C₄H₈(MW=56 g/mol)

%C = 4.12/56 x 100% = 85.71%

%H = 8.1/56 x 100%=14.29%

So they are the same, because mol ratio of C and H in both compounds is the same, 1: 2

Explain how low atomspheric oxygen levels affected alligators growth in terms of celluar respiration
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Answer: Hyperoxic alligators show significantly lower breathing rates than their siblings in normoxic and hypoxic groups. Conversely, each breath supports greater oxygen consumption in hyperoxic animals than in other groups. Statistical significance between groups was calculated by ANOVA with post hoc Tukey-Kramer
