The empirical formula : CH₃

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

2.5 g sample

2.002 g Carbon

Required

The empirical formula

Solution

Mass of Hydrogen :

= 2.5 - 2.002

= 0.498

Mol ratio C : H :

C : 2.002/12 = 0.167

H : 0.498/1 = 0.498

Divide by 0.167 :

C : H = 1 : 3

How does a buffer resist change in ph upon addition of a strong acid?
lora16 [44]
Any buffer exists in this equilibrium
 
  HA <=> H^+ + A^-
In a buffer, there is a large reservoir of both the undissociated acid (HA) and its conjugate base (A^-) 

When a strong acid is added, it reacts with the large reservoir of the conjugate base (A^-) forming a salt and water. Since this large reservoir of the conjugate base is used, the ph does not alter drastically, but instead resist the pH change.

If the first isotope has a mass of 259.98 amu and a percent abundance of 35%, what is the percent abundance of the second isotop
brilliants [131]
If it is assumed that there are only two isotopes then the percent abundance needs to add up to 100%

100-35= 65%

The second isotope will have a 65% abundance.

In a food chain, energy is passed through one link to another. When a herbivore eats only a certain fraction of the energy, (which comes from the food) it becomes new body mass; the rest of the energy is lost as waste or used up by the herbivore in order to carry out its life processes (ex. movement, digestion, reproduction). It doesn’t necessarily threaten the plants survival, there’s also a benefit. When a animals poops out the fruit (defecate) in another area those seeds get carried to new places with the help of a dab of fertilizer and a little bit of moisture. They also help supply nutrients when they die and decompose.
