3 0

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.

A sample of krypton gas with a volume of 10.00 L has a temp of 303 K and exerts
marshall27 [118]

<u>Answer:</u> The final volume will be 14.85 L.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the final volume when temperature increases, we use Charles' Law.

This law states that volume is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas if number of moles and pressure remains constant.

V\propto T\\\\\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

where,

V_1\text{ and }T_1 = Initial volume and temperature

V_2\text{ and }T_2 = Final volume and temperature

We are given:

V_1=10L\\&#10;T_1=303K\\&#10;V_2=?L\\&#10;T_2=450K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{10L}{303K}=\frac{V_2}{450K}

V_2=14.85L

Hence, the final volume of the gas is 14.85L

A sample of gas occupies a volume of 10.5 L when the pressure is 14.3 psi. Use Boyle’s Law to calculate the pressure (psi) when
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: 17.6psi

Explanation:

V1 = 10.5 L

P1 = 14.3 psi

V2 = 8.55L

P2 =?

P1V1 = P2V2

14.3 x 10.5 = P2 x 8.55

P2 = (14.3 x 10.5) / 8.55

P2 = 17.6psi

Which statement best explains why sugar water can be easily separated?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Sand has a strong non-polar covalent connection, that prevents water to break it down.

Explanation:

Sand being composed of quartz and small particulars of minerals can only be dissolved in hot acids, unlikd sugar which can easily be broken down by water, due to the large magnetic molecular propery of water and the ability to evolve sugar in an Intermolecular manner.

You need to use the equation PV = nRT

The only “trick” in these problems is you need to use the correct UNITS. Especially for the “R” value.

If you get the units (eg temps in Celsius or Kelvin) corresponding to the correct “matching” units of the other variables.

You need to convert the temp into Kelvin first
