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.

Consider only the experiment you conducted with 0.5 g. of lactose.
rjkz [21]
Answer is: <span>the pH value(level) is the independent variable.</span><span>
</span>
Missing question: <span>We conducted an experiment where we added 0.5 g of lactose to 5 different test tubes all containing 5 different pH levels. What is the independent variable?
In this experiment pH level changes, so results depend on different pH values.
Mass of lactose is same during experiment,so t</span>he number of molecules of product formed per minute is the <span>dependent variable.</span>

Unlabeled atoms joined to carbon atoms, which are not directly part of a ring structure, are assumed to be oxygen atoms.
N76 [4]
The statement above is FALSE.
Unlabeled atom joined to carbon atoms which are not directly part of a ring structure are assumed to be CARBON ATOMS. In a ring structure, an unlabeled atom at the angle where two lines joined together is always assumed to be a carbon atom<span />

Which of the following is NOT soluble in water?
GrogVix [38]
C6H6 is the most insoluble in water as it is non polar in nature. HCL is highly soluble in water as it is an electrolyte. Kbr is also highly soluble in water. NaCl dissolves in water very quickly. CH3CH3OH is also totally soluble in water because of the Hydrogen bonding formation. It is a well known fact that the hydrocarbons do not easily mix with water. C6H6 being a strong hydrocarbon does not mix with water. So among NaCl, KBr, CH3CH3OH, HCl and C6H6, the hydrocarbon is the least soluble in water.
