Which shows the correct relationship between the molecular formula and the empirical formula for C2H10N2

1 answer:

3 0

The correct answer is molecular formula = 2 x empirical formula

The given compound C2H10N2 is the molecular formula because the ratios of the elements are not reduced into lowest terms (empirical formula). To get the empirical formula, the ratios must be reduced to the smallest possible integral ratio which gives CH5N. As a result, the ratio between both formulas is 2.

Relative formula mass of glucose? (C6H12O6)

Rom4ik [11]

To find the mass of glucose, you must multiply the atomic weight of each of the elements in the molecule by the subscripts in the formula:

$C_{6}=6*(12.01g)=72.06g$

$H_{12}=12*(1.008g)=12.096g$

$O_{6}=6*(15.999g)=95.994g$

Then you add all of them together:

$72.06g+12.096g+95.994g=180.15g$

Therefore, the molar weight of glucose is 180.15 grams.

A molecule of carbon dioxide (CO2) contains two polar covalent bonds. Why is the molecule nonpolar?

DaniilM [7]

The molecule is non-polar, because the difference in electronegativity between the two sides of the structure equals 0. The electronegativity difference between O (3.5) and C(2.5) is 1 and also on the other side, cancelling each other.

As an atom becomes an ion, its mass number(1) decreases(2) increases(3) remains the same

katrin [286]

Becoming an ion involves gaining or losing electrons
Electrons have a relative mass of 0
So adding or removing them doesn't change the mass of the atom
So the answer is (3) remains the same
