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

A sky rocket is launched with a force of 10 N and accelerates at 20 m/s squared what is the mass of this skyrocket
tia_tia [17]

Answer: 0.5 kg

Explanation:

Force of launched skyrocket = 10 N

Acceleration of skyrocket = 20 m/s squared (i.e 20m/s^2)

Mass of the skyrocket = ?

Recall that Force is the product of the mass of an object by the acceleration by which it moves.

i.e Force = Mass x Acceleration

10N = Mass x 20m/s^2

Mass = (10N/20m/s^2)

Mass = 0.5 kg

Thus, the mass of this skyrocket is 0.5 kilograms

1 mole of nacl(s) has a greater entropy than 1 mole of nacl(aq). true or false g
Svetradugi [14.3K]
It  is  false   that  1  mole  of  nacl(s)  has  a  greater  entropy  than   1  mole  of  nacl (aq).  

  this  is  because    nacl(aq)   is  in  aqueous  state  while  nacl(s)  is  in  solid  state.  Nacl(aq)  has  greater  entropy  than  nacl(s)  because    in 
aqueous   state  their   is  increase  in  entropy. the  entropy   of  the  two  ions  in  water  has   greater  entropy  than  the  solid   nacl.
