Answer:

C₃H₉N

Explanation:

The empirical formula of a compound is the fundamental and basic possible formula that shows the mole ratio of the atoms of each element in a molecule of the compound.

mole ratio of carbon = 60.94/12 = 5.078

mole ratio of hydrogen = 15.36/1  = 15.36

mole ratio of nitrogen = 23.70/14 = 1.693

Now; we will divide by the smallest value

So; carbon = 5.078/1.693 = 2.99 ≅ 3.0

hydrogen = 15.36/1.693 = 9.07 ≅ 9.0

nitrogen = 1.693/1.693 = 1 ≅ 1

Thus,  the empirical formula is = C₃H₉N

Physical and psychological dependence, high-risk behaviour, and chronic high blood
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Physical and psychological dependence is high, and withdrawal symptoms include watery eyes, runny nose, loss of appetite, irritability, tremors, panic, abdominal cramps and diarrhea, nausea, chills, and sweating. Use of contaminated syringes/needles to inject drugs may result in serious blood borne infections such as HIV-AIDS and hepatitis.

Find the number of moles of water that can be formed if you have 138 mol of hydrogen gas and 64 mol of oxygen gas.
charle [14.2K]
2H₂₍g₎ + O₂ ₍g₎→ 2H₂O

138 mol H₂ × (2 mol H₂O ÷ 2 mol H₂)= 138 mol H₂O
64 mol O₂ × (2 mol H₂O ÷ 1 mol O₂)= 128 mol H₂O

128 mol H₂O
