Answer:

C₆H₁₂

Explanation:

Given molecular weight = 84 g/mole

Empirical Formula => CH₂

Empirical Formula Wt = 12 + 2(1) = 14 g/emp formula

Molecular Multiple = Molecular Wt / Emp Formula Wt = 84/14 = 6

∴ Molecular Formula => (CH₂)₆ => C₂H₆

Answer:

C6H12

Explanation:

Molar mass of C =12.0 H=1.0

12x + 2(1x) = 84

x = 6

so it should be C6H12

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

When this equation is solved, the two values of the unknown are 0.0643 and -0.082

Explanation:

Given

1.77 * 10^{-2} = \frac{x^2}{0.298 - x} --- the actual equation

Required

The values of x

We have:

1.77 * 10^{-2} = \frac{x^2}{0.298 - x}

Cross Multiply

1.77 * 10^{-2} * (0.298 - x)= x^2

Multiply both sides by 100

1.77  * (0.298 - x)= 100x^2

Open bracket

0.52746 - 1.77x= 100x^2

Rewrite as:

100x^2 + 1.77x - 0.52746 =0

Using quadratic formula:

x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

Where:

a = 100; b = 1.77; c = -0.52746

So, we have:

x = \frac{-1.77 \± \sqrt{1.77^2 - 4*100*- 0.52746 }}{2*100}

x = \frac{-1.77 \± \sqrt{214.1169}}{2*100}

x = \frac{-1.77 \± 14.63}{200}

Split

x = \frac{-1.77 + 14.63}{200}\ or\ x = \frac{-1.77 - 14.63}{200}

x = \frac{12.86}{200}\ or\ x = \frac{-16.40}{200}

x = 0.0643\ or\ x = -0.082

If 14.5kj of heat were added to 485g of liquid water, how much would its temp increase
OlgaM077 [116]
<span>7.15 degrees C The specific heat capacity of water is 4.1813 J/(g*K). So we have 3 values with the units kJ, g and J/(g*K). We can trivially convert from kJ to J by multiplying by 1000. And we want to get a result with the unit K (degrees Kelvin). So let's do it. First, let's cancel out the g unit by multiplying. 4.1813 J/(g*K) * 485 g = 2027.9305 J/K Now we can cancel out the J unit by dividing. But if we divide by the energy, we'll be left with the reciprocal of K, not K. So instead divide by the J/K unit. So 14500 J / 2027.9305 J/K = 7.150146418 K Rounding to 3 significant figures gives us 7.15 K. And since degrees C and degrees K are the same size, the temperature will increase by 7.15 degrees C</span>

What happens to water when it changes to ice?
mariarad [96]
Density decreases that's why ice floats on water because it's less dense than water.

can you tell what the genotype of the purple flowered parent is from the information in the punnets square? explain why or why n
Nina [5.8K]

We will not be able to tell the genotype of the purple parent as it can either be a homo_zygous dominant or hetero_zygous. Without the complete genotype of the offspring, we would not be able to tell.
