The empirical formula gives the relative ratio of atoms in each element. Therefore, it simplifies the whole numbers. For example C2H6 can be reduced to CH3 because they share the greatest common factor (2). The answer to this question would be #1. C4H10 can be reduced to C2H5 because 4 and 10 are both divisible by 2. C2H5 can not be reduced any further. All of the other options do not have a greatest common factor making them a empirical formula.
Answer:
0.50 moles of Cu
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation for given synthetic reaction is,
2 Cu + S → Cu₂S
According to balance chemical equation,
1 mole of Cu₂S is produced by = 2 moles of Cu
So,
0.25 moles of Cu₂S will be produced by = X moles of Cu
Solving for X,
X = 0.25 mol × 2 mol / 1 mol
X = 0.50 moles of Cu
Hence, as the molar ratio of Cu to Cu₂S is 2:1 hence, to produce 0.25 moles of Cu₂S we will need 0.50 moles of Cu.
Organisms are living things. Us humans are also living things, so we are helpful and harmful to other organisms. For example: we can help another human being with something, or we can help a plant/tree grow if we water it. In return, they also help us by providing us with oxygen. however, we can also be harmful to each other and the environment, for example: we can't hurt each other, or plant or animals by killing them or we can hurt insects by stepping on them. Therefore, organisms are helpful and harmful to each other.
In the question, we are told that there are;
- A loaf containing 33 slices
- A loaf containing 33 slices A package of cheese containing 15 slices
We also know that he is making a sandwich that has 2 pieces of both cheese and bread.
Hence;
Total number of bread and cheese = 33 + 15.
Each loaf should have two pieces of each bread and the cheeses make a total of four pieces.
Therefore he can make = 33 + 15/4 = 12 sandwiches.
