Explanation:

Let the mass of isoamyl acetate be 100g.

Moles of Carbon = 60.58/12 = 5.048mol

Moles of Hydrogen = 7.07/1 = 7.07mol

Moles of Oxygen = 32.28/16 = 2.018mol

Mole Ratio of C : H : O

= 5.048 : 7.07 : 2.018

= 5 : 7 : 2.

Hence the empirical formula of isoamyl acetate is C5H7O2.

The degree to which various compounds will dissociate in solution varies greatly.
uranmaximum [27]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Weak electrolytes are those solutions which do not undergo complete dissociation when dissolved in water. The dissociation of weak electrolytes is given by an equilibrium.

Example: CH_3COOH\rightleftharpoons CH_3COO^-+H^+

Strong electrolytes are those solutions which undergo complete dissociation when dissolved in water.  The dissociation of strong electrolytes is given by a right arrow.

Example: HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^-

Thus the degree to which various compounds will dissociate in solution varies greatly is true.

Identify the oxidizing and reducing agent in the following reaction, and determine which element is oxidized and which is reduce
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Fe⁺²(aq) + ClO₂(aq) → Fe⁺³(aq) + ClO₂⁻(aq)

Here oxidation number of Fe is increased from +2 to +3 , so Fe is oxidised .

The oxidation number of Cl is reduced from + 4 to +3  so Cl is reduced .

So ClO₂(aq) is oxidising agent and Fe⁺²(aq) is reducing agent .
