Knowing the ratio between atoms we can write an empirical formula: 

<span>C4H6O </span>

<span>we compute the molar mass of this single formula: </span>
<span>4x12 + 6 x 1 + 16 x1 = 70 g / mol </span>

<span>Now, as we know the actual molar mas being 280 g/mol, we divide this number by 70 and we get the ratio between empirical formula and molecular actual formula: </span>

<span>280 / 70 = 4 </span>

<span>This means that actual molecular formula is: </span>

<span>(C4H6O)4 or </span>

<span>C16H24O4 </span>

How much energy (in joules) is released when 0.06 kilograms of mercury is condensed to a liquid at the same temperature? A. 51,3
expeople1 [14]
The amount of energy released when 0.06 kg of mercury condenses at the same temperature can be calculated using its latent heat of fusion which is the opposite of melting. Latent heat of fusion and melting can be used because they have the same magnitude, but opposite signs. Latent heat is the amount of energy required to change the state or phase of a substance. For latent heat, there is no temperature change. The equation is:

E = m(ΔH)

where:
m = mass of substance
ΔH = latent heat of fusion or melting

According to data, the ΔH of mercury is approximately 11.6 kJ/kg.

E = 0.06kg (11.6 kJ/kg) = 0.696 kJ or 696 J

The answer is D. 697.08 J. Note that small differences could be due to rounding off or different data sources.

Specific gravity is a number representing the ratio of a mineral's weight to the weight of an equal volume of water. TRUE FALSE
777dan777 [17]

Answer: True

Explanation: Specific Gravity of a body, also called its Relative Density, is the ratio of the density of that body to the density of a reference material (usually water).

With the Mathematics done right, it is evident that the specific gravity of a body would be equal to the ratio of mass/weight of the body to the mass/weight of an equal volume of water.

S.G = (Density of body)/(Density of water)

Density of Body = (mass/weight of body)/(volume of body)

Density of water = (mass/weight of water)/(volume of water)

If volume of Body = Volume of water, then,

S.G = (Mass/Weight of body)/(Mass/Weight of equal volume of water)
