What is the molecular formula for a compound with a molar mass of 42.08g/mol and an empirical formula of ch2
1 answer:
Answer:
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:
Thus, the molecular formula times the empirical formula by 3 to obtain:

Answer:
Acid: HCl(aq), conjugate base: Cl⁻(aq)
Base: CO₃⁻²(aq), conjugate acid: HCO₃⁻(aq)
The rewrite reaction is shown below.
Explanation:
The acid compound is the one that loses an H⁺, and the compound formed when it happens is its conjugate base. The base compound is the acceptor of H⁺, and its conjugate acid is the compound formed (Brosted-Lowry theory).
So, the acid-base pairs are:
Acid: HCl(aq), conjugate base: Cl⁻(aq)
Base: CO₃⁻²(aq), conjugate acid: HCO₃⁻(aq)
The TUMS® is an antacid, so it intends to reduce the concentration of the strong acid HCl. So, the forward reaction is favored. It can be represented with the forward arrow larger than the reversible arrow, as shown in the image below.
