The empirical formula of vitamin A : C₂₀H₃₀O

<h3>Further explanation   </h3>

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound =mole ratio of the components

The principle of determining empirical formula

  • Determine the mass ratio of the constituent elements of the compound.  
  • Determine the mole ratio by dividing the percentage by the atomic mass

mol ratio of C : H : O ⇒

\tt \dfrac{83.85}{12}\div \dfrac{10.56}{1}\div \dfrac{5.58}{16}\\\\6.9875\div 10.56\div 0.34875\rightarrow divide~by~smallest(0.34875)\\\\20\div 30\div 1

The atomic number tells us how many __ or __ an element contains.
CaHeK987 [17]
Answer:-
Electrons or Protons

Explanation:-
Atomic number (Z) is defined as:
>>“The total number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is called atomic number”. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons and electrons.
>>“The total number of protons in the nucleus or electrons revolving around the nucleus of an atom”.
Example:
For instance, Hydrogen has the Atomic number(Z) 1.
Helium has the atomic number 2.
Oxygen has the atomic number 8.
| Note | Atomic number is represented by “Z”. And some ppl don’t consider the 2nd definition it’s upto u to do both or the standard one.

You have a 25.2 L sample of gas at 1.25 atm and 25.0 degrees Celsius. How many moles are present in this gas. For your answer, p
Elenna [48]

Answer:

  • <u>1.29 mol</u>

Explanation:

This is a direct application of the equation for ideal gases.

  • PV=nRT

Where:

  • P = pressure = 1.25 atm
  • V = volume = 25.2 liter
  • R = Universal constant of gases = 0.08206 atm-liter/K-mol
  • T = absolute temperature = 25.0ºC = 25 + 273.15 K = 298.15 K
  • n = number of moles

Solving for n:

  • n=\frac{PV}{RT}

Substituting:

n=\frac{1.25atm\times 25.2liter}{0.08206atm-liter/K-mol\times298.15K }\\\\n=1.29mol
