Assuming complete decomposition of both samples,
First compound:
;
of the first compound would contain
Oxygen and mercury atoms seemingly exist in the first compound at a
ratio; thus the empirical formula for this compound would be
where the subscript "1" is omitted.
Similarly, for the second compound
;
of the first compound would contain
and therefore the empirical formula
.
Answer: 97
Explanation:
The element Ru is <u>Ruthenium</u> which has <u>44 protons</u>.
In this case, our atom is an isotope with <u>53 neutrons</u>.
With this information, we can use the mass number formula to find this atom's mass number.
mass number = protons + neutrons
mass number = <u>44 protons</u> + <u>53 neutrons</u>
mass number = <u>97</u>
There are several differences between a physical and chemical change in matter or substances. A physical change in a substance doesn't change what the substance is. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed.
Answer : The approximate relation Celsius = 1/2 Fahrenheit is a better approximation at higher temperatures
Explanation :
The formula for Celsius to Fahrenheit conversion is

At lower temperature the value that needs to be subtracted (32) is large enough as a result the approximation "celsius = 1/2 fahrenheit " does not seem valid.
For example, 50 F is 10°C.

This is almost 1/5 of Fahrenheit temperature.
But at higher temperatures , the value becomes insignificant and also the ratio 5/9 tend to be equal to 0.5.
For example, 2000 F is 1093°C

This is almost half of Fahrenheit temperature.
Therefore , the approximate relation Celsius = 1/2 Fahrenheit is a better approximation at higher temperatures
