The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:

 

C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22

H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25

N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22

 

Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:

 

C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5

N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

 

So the empirical formula is:

CHN

Lactose, C12H22O11, is a naturally occurring sugar found in mammalian milk. A 0.335 M solution of lactose in water has a density
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The molality of the solution is 0.00037 m.

<h3>What is concentration?</h3>

The term concentration refers to the amount of solute in a solution.

We have the following information;

Molarity = 0.335 M

Density =  1.0432 g/mL

Temperature = 20 o C

The molality of the solution is obtained from;

m = 0.335 M ×  1.0432 g/mL/ 1000(1.0432 g/mL) - 0.335 M (342 g/mol)

m = 0.344/1043.2 - 114.57

m =  0.344/928.63

m = 0.00037 m

Weak noncovalent interactions:__________ a. do not include ionic interactions b. always involve water. c. can have a large cumul
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

c. can have a large cumulative effect

Explanation:

Noncovalent interactions between molecules are weaker than covalent interactions. Noncovalent interactions between molecules are of various types which  include van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions or ionic bonding.

van der Waals forces  are weak interactions found in all molecules. They include dipole-dipole interactions - formed due to the differences in the electronegativity of atoms - and the London dispersion forces.

Hydrogen Bonds  results when electrons are shared between hydrogen and a strongly electronegative atoms like fluorine, nitrogen, oxygen. The hydrogen acquires a partial positive charge while the electronegative atom acquires a partial negative. This results in attraction between hydrogen and neighboring electronegative molecules.

Ionic bonds result due to the attraction between groups with opposite electrical charges, for example in common salt between sodium and chloride ions.

Even though these noncovalent interactions are weak, cumulatively, they exert strong effect. For example, the high boiling point of water and the crystal structure of ice are due to hydrogen bonding.
