Difference between emprical and molecular formula

Chemistry
1 answer:
Musya8 [376]3 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.

What causes attraction and repulsion between atoms?​
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Repulsive forces exist only when atoms are very close to each other. (3/14) "They [the atoms] will approach until both nuclei will simply shove each other because both of them are positive." The balance between the attraction and repulsion forces determines how close the atoms can get. The relationships between the magnitude and direction of repulsive and attractive forces. A stable state of a bond is when attractive forces balance repulsion forces. “A stable state between two atoms is when they attract each other with a force that equals the force that they repel each other.”

A solution was made by dissolving 5.10 mg of hemoglobin in water to give a final volume of 1.00 ml. the osmotic pressure of this
Assoli18 [71]

The molecular weight of hemoglobin can be calculated using osmotic pressure

Osmotic pressure is a colligative property and it depends on molarity as

πV = nRT

where

π = osmotic pressure

V = volume = 1mL = 0.001 L

n = moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm / mol K

T = temperature = 25°C = 25 + 273 K = 298 K

Putting values we will get value of moles

moles=\frac{\pi V}{RT}=\frac{0.00195X0.001}{0.0821X298}mol

we know that

moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}

Therefore

molarmass=\frac{mass}{moles}=\frac{5.10X10^{-3}g}{7.97X10^{-8}}=6.399X10^{4}g

Need some help, please. Explain why anions are always larger than the atoms from which they are derived, while cations are alway
ANTONII [103]

The question requires us to explain the differences in radii of neutral atoms, cations and anions.

To answer this question, we need to keep in mind that a neutral atom presents the same number of protons (positive particles) and electrons (negative particles). Another important information is that the protons are located in the nucleus of the atom, while the electrons are around the nucleus. Also, there is an electrostatic force between protons and electrons, which means that they the protons tend to attract the electrons to the nucleus.

While a neutral atom presents the same number of protons and electrons, a cation is an ion with positive charge, which means it has lost one or more electrons. In a cation, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore: now, there is more positive than negative charge (more protons than electrons), and the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is increased. As a result, the electrons stay closer to the nucleus and the radius of a cation is smaller than the neutral atom from which it was derived.

On the other side, anions present negative charge, which means they have received electrons. Similarly to cations, the balance between protons and electrons doesn't exist anymore, but in this case, there are more electrons than protons. In an anion, the overall attractive force that the protons have for the electrons is decreased. As a result, the electrons are "more free" to move and, as they are not so attracted to the nucleus, they tend to stay farther from the positive nucleus compared to the neutral atom - because of this, the radius of an anion is larger than the neutral atom from which it was derived.

What is the mass if 1.72 moles of sodium nitrate
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

146 g

Explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the <em>molar mass</em> of NaNO₃

Na =                    22.99

  N =                     14.01

3O = 3 × 16.00 = 48.00

               Total = 85.00 g/mol

Step 2. Calculate the <em>mass</em>  of NaNO₃

Mass of NaNO₃ = 1.72 × 85.00/1

Mass of NaNO₃ = 146 g
