Answer:

Molecular formula => C₁₂H₁₂O₃

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Molar mass of compound = 205gmol¯¹

Mass of Carbon (C) = 3.758 g

Mass of Hydrogen (H) = 0.316 g

Mass of Oxygen (O) = 1.251 g

Molecular formula =?

We'll begin by determining the empirical formula of the compound. This can be obtained as follow:

C = 3.758 g

H = 0.316 g

O = 1.251 g

Divide by their molar masses

C = 3.758 /12 = 0.313

H = 0.316 /1 = 0.316

O = 1.251 /16 = 0.078

Divide by the smallest.

C = 0.313 / 0.078 = 4

H = 0.316 / 0.078 = 4

O = 0.078 / 0.078 = 1

Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is C₄H₄O

Finally, we shall determine the molecular formula of the compound. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of compound = 205gmol¯¹

Empirical formula => C₄H₄O

Molecular formula =>?

[C₄H₄O]ₙ = 205

[(12×4) + (4×1) +16]n = 205

[48 + 4 +16]n = 205

68n = 205

Divide both side by n

n = 205 / 68

n = 3

Molecular formula => [C₄H₄O]ₙ

Molecular formula => [C₄H₄O]₃

Molecular formula => C₁₂H₁₂O₃

Calculate how many moles of NH3 form when each quantity of reactant completely reacts according to the equation:
sergiy2304 [10]
The balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>3N2H4(l)→4NH3(g)+N2(g)
</span>
The amounts given for the N2H4 reactant will be the starting point for our calculations.

2.6mol N2H4 ( 4 mol NH3 / 3 mol N2H4 ) = 3.47 mol NH3

4.05mol N2H4 ( 4 mol NH3 / 3 mol N2H4 ) = 5.4 mol NH3

63.8g N2H4  <span>( 4 mol NH3 / 3 mol N2H4 ) = 85.07 mol NH3</span>

Answer:

B. Spring balance - a device used for measuring the weight or force of gravity acting on an object.

Explanation:

A Force is any interaction that changes the motion or position of an obkpjectbthatbit is interacting with. Whenever there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force exerted by each of the objects on one themselves.

Forces are generally divided into contact forces and non-contact over field forces.

In contact forces, the two objects physically in contact with each other. Examples of contact forces are push or pull forces, frictional forces, tensional forces, spring forces, etc.

Non-contact forces are forces in which the two objects interacting do no need to be physically in contact with one another. Examples include, gravitational forces, magnetic forces, electrical forces, etc.

Instruments used in measuring forces are known as force gauges.

From the instruments listed above:

A. A ruler is an instrument used in measuring length

B. Spring balance is a device used for measuring the weight or force of gravity acting on an object.

C. A thermometer is an instrument used in measuring temperature

D. A windbvane is an instrument used in measuring wind direction.

Which group of extremophiles does thermus aquaticus belong to
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The correct answer is thermophiles.

Explanation:

Thermus aquaticus are heat resistant bacteria because these bacteria can survive under adverse environmental conditions like high temperature.

These bacteria belong to one of the most heat-loving groups of extremophiles that are thermophiles. Thermophiles are present in volcanic soil, geysers and around deep-sea vents where the temperature is extremely high.

Thermus aquaticus bacteria is used to manufacture an enzyme called Taq DNA polymerase, which is heat resistant and also an important factor in molecular biology.
