Answer is: between the carbon atom and the oxygen atom in a molecule of methanal there are two (2) <span>pairs of electrons.
Methanal or formaldehyde (H</span>₂C=O)<span> </span><span>is the simplest of the </span><span>aldehydes.
In methanal, bond between carbon and oxygen is double covalent bond (one sigma and one pi bond), which means there are four shared electrons or two pair of electrons.</span>
Answer:
The more concentrated acetic acid buffer has a better buffer capacity because requires more moles of acid or base to change the pH than a more diluted acetic acid buffer.
Explanation:
Buffer capacity is defined as the moles of an acid or base that are needed to change the pH of a buffer in 1 unit.
A more concentrated solution of acetic buffer contains more moles of the acid per liter of solution. A solution that contains more moles of the acetic ion or the acetic acid requires more moles of base or acid to change the pH, that means:
The more concentrated acetic acid buffer has a better buffer capacity because requires more moles of acid or base to change the pH than a more diluted acetic acid buffer.
Empirical formula is calculated as follows
calculate the moles of each element, that is % composition/ molar mass
molar masses ( Si= 28.09g/mol , Cl= 35.5 g/mol, I=126.9 g/mol)
moles of silicon = 7.962/28.09g/mol= 0.283 moles
moles of chlorine = 20.10 / 35.5g/mol = 0.566 moles
moles of iodine= 71.94 / 126.9 g/mol= 0.567 moles
divide each mole with smallest mole (0.283)
that is silicon = 0.283/0.283= 1 mole
chlorine = 0.566/0.283= 2 mole
Iodine= o.567/0.283= 2 moles
empirical formula is therefore= SiCl2I2
