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 $C_3H_4O_3$ .

How many molecules are in 68.0 g of H2S

Kryger [21]

The correct answer is 12.044 × 10²³ molecules.

The molecular mass of H₂S is 34 gram per mole.

Number of moles is determined by using the formula,

Number of moles = mass/molecular mass

Given mass is 68 grams, so no of moles will be,

68/34 = 2 moles

1 mole comprises 6.022 × 10²³ molecules, therefore, 2 moles will comprise = 6.022 × 10²³ × 2

= 12.044 × 10²³ molecules.

Ok so the gravitational force the moon exerts on earth is very small. The ocean, however, is affected by it. How gravity works (in a simplistic sense) is that, when you are closer to something, the force is stronger. So, when the moon is close to Earth (at Perigee) the force of gravity is stronger. So the moon pulls the water more towards itself. This results in higher waves occurring when the moon is closer (at perigee) than at apogee.
