Answer: The empirical formula of vitamin C is $C_3H_4O_3$

Explanation:

Molecular formula is the chemical formula which depicts the actual number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

The molecular formula of Vitamin C is $C_3H_4O_3$ .

The simplest whole number ratio will be 3: 4: 3 , and thus empirical formula will be $C_3H_4O_3$ .

When the pressure on 2.5 liters of oxygen is decreased from 2.0 atm to 1.0 atm, the volume of the gas

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

volume of the gas is 5.0L

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law that state the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to volume of it occupies when temperature is constant, it is possible to write:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Where P is pressure, V is volume and 1 and 2 are initial and final states.

If initial volume is 2.5L, initial pressure is 2.0atm and 1.0atm is final pressure, final volume is:

2.0atm*2.5L = 1atm V₂

5.0L = V₂

Thus, volume of the gas is 5.0L.
