What is the molecular formula for a compound with a molar mass of 42.08g/mol and an empirical formula of ch2

Chemistry

Answer:

C_3H_6

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the empirical formula is the smallest representation of the molecular formula, it is known that the times in which the empirical formula is into the molecular formula is a whole number and is computed by dividing the molar mass of the molecular formula by that of the empirical formula as shown below:

\frac{42.08g/mol}{12.01+1.01x2}= \frac{42.08g/mol}{14.03g/mol}=3

Thus, the molecular formula times the empirical formula by 3 to obtain:

C_3H_6

The s orbitals are said to be non directional what does it mean
ser-zykov [4K]

s - orbitals have a spherical symmetry and the probability of finding an electron in an s orbital is equal for equal distance in x, y or z direction. i mean the probability of lets say an electron found at a distance 10 units from nuclues, its value will be same for x, y and z when u go 10 units distnace from nucleus in these directions. then the value at 5 units would be some value which also would be same for x,y and z.

Easier explanation is that if u place a ball, can u tell towards which axis it is oriented? no, its equally in all directions. So, non- directional.

However, if you have p- orbitals like dumb bells, a dumb bell can be oriented in  three different directions, either x or y or z. see the pics.

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 30 and its mass number is 70?
Yanka [14]
The answer is 40.

We can solve this by finding out the number of protons, and neutrons. Atomic number of an element means the number of protons in that element. So, the atom has 30 protons if the atomic number is 30.

On the other hand, mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons, but not electrons, because they're too light comparing to the other 2. Therefore, we can simply solve the number of neutrons in the atom by subtracting the number of protons from the mass number. 70 - 30 = 40.

Therfore, the number of neutrons is 40.
