Difference between emprical and molecular formula

Chemistry
1 answer:
Musya8 [376]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The key difference between empirical and molecular formulas is that an empirical formula only gives the simplest ratio of atom whereas a molecular formula gives the exact number of each atom in a molecule.

A sample of an uranium compound is found to be losing mass gradually. Explain what is happening to the sample.​
yan [13]

Answer:

The uranium in the sample of the compound is radioactive

Explanation:

Some atoms can split on their own. Some split when bombarded by energetic particles. Such atoms are said to be radioactive.

Radioactivity is borne out of the drive of an atom to reach stabillity. Every atom have a specific neutron/proton ratio which ensures stability of the nucleus. A nucleus with a stability ratio different from that which makes it stable will become unstable and split into one or more other nuclei with emissons of energetic particles.

Note: neutrons and protons dictates the mass of an atom. They are located in the nucleus which is the site for nuclear radioactive reactions.

Will NaBr, CO2, Ca3(PO4), or KZS raise a liquid's boiling point the most when
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

K_2S

Explanation:

According to the boiling point elevation law described by the equation \Delta T_b = iK_bb, the increase in boiling point is directly proportional to the van 't Hoff factor.

The van 't Hoff factor for nonelectrolytes is 1, while for ionic substances, it is equal to the number of moles of ions produced when 1 mole of salt dissolves.

NaBr would produce 2 moles of ions per 1 mole of dissolved substance, sodium and bromide ions.

Ca_3(PO_4)_2 is insoluble in water, so it would barely dissociate and wouldn't practically change the boiling point.

K_2S would dissociate into 3 moles of ions per 1 mole of substance, two potassium cations and one sulfide anion.

CO_2 is a gas, it would form some amount of carbonic acid when dissolved, however, carbonic acid is molecular and would yield i value of i = 1.

Therefore, potassium sulfide would raise a liquid's boiling point the most if all concentrations are equal.

Density of a piece of wood that has a measurement of 24 cm3 and 768 g
Brut [27]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 32 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume} \\

From the question

mass = 768 g

volume = 24 cm³

We have

density =  \frac{768}{24}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>32 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you

In solid NaCl, the equilibrium separation between neighboring Na+ and Cl- ions is 0.283 nm. Calculate the coulombic energy betwe
const2013 [10]

Explanation:

It is given that r = 0.283 nm. As 1 nm = 10^{-9} m.

Hence, 0.283 nm = 0.283 \times 10^{-9} m

  • Formula for coulombic energy is as follows.

             U_{coulomb} = -1.748 \frac{e^{2}}{4 \pi \epsilon_{o} r}

where,   e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

            \epsilon_{o} = 8.85 \times 10^{-12}

          U_{coulomb} = -1.748 \frac{(1.6 \times 10^{-19}^{2}}{4 \times 3.14 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12} \times 0.283 \times 10^{-9}}

                         = 1.423 \times 10^{-18} J

  • As 1 eV = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} J

So,       1 J = \frac{1 eV}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}

Hence,    U = \frac{1.423 \times 10^{-18} J}{1.6 \times 10^{-19} J}

                   = 8.9 eV

  • Also,   1 J = \frac{10^{-3} kJ}{6.022 \times 10^{23}mol}

                = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kJ/mol

Therefore, U = 1.423 \times 10^{-18} J \times 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kJ/mol

                     = 2.37 \times 10^{-45} kJ/mol
