7 0

Answer:

The postulates of Dalton's atomic theory are as follows:

(i) All matter is made of very tiny particles called atoms.

(ii) Atoms are indivisible particles, which cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

(iii) Atoms of a given element are identical in mass and chemical properties.

(iv) Atoms of different elements have different masses and chemical

properties.

(v) Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form compounds.

(vi) The relative number and kinds of atoms are constant in a given

compound.

The taste of sour milk is lactic acid. What is the molecular formula for lactic acid if the percent composition is 40.00% C, 6.7
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

C3H6O3

Explanation:

To find the emperical of the compound,you divide the percentage composition of each element by it's molar mass(C=12, H=1, O=16).

For C,40/12=3.33. For H,6.71/1=6.71

For O,53.19/16=3.33.

Then divide everything by the smallest value which is 3.33

For C,3.33/3.33=1. For H,6.71/3.33=~2.

For O,3.33/3.33=1.

Emperical formula=CH2O

Molecular formula=(CH2O)n=90

(12+2*1+16)n=90

30n=90, n=3

molecular formula=(CH2O)3

molecular formula of lactic acid=C3H6O3.

Why dose a small container have more pressure than a large container of both have the same amount of gas in them
Volgvan
Because in a smaller container, there is less room for the gas to exist. the gas much all push together closer to fit in the smaller container. as gas atoms, they have less room to bounce around. in a bigger container, it has more room to more and is less pressurized

Red mercury (II) oxide decomposes to form mercury metal and oxygen gas according to the following equation: 2HgO (s) 2Hg (l) + O
diamong [38]

hey there!:

2HgO (s) =>  2Hg (l) + O2 (g)

2 moles of HgO decompose to form 2 moles of Hg and 1 mole of O2 according to the reaction mentioned in the question.

So 4.00 moles of HgO must give 4 moles of Hg and 2 moles of O2 theoretically.

603 g of Hg = 603 / 200.6 = 3 moles

Percent yield = ( actual yield / theoretical yield) * 100

= ( 3/4) * 100

= 75 %

Hope this helps!
