there are 4.0 moles of SO3
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
An exothermic reaction tends to occur spontaneously because the products are more stable than the reactants.
Nature tries to get to the lowest energy state.
Look I am not even close to a genius in this type of stuff but the leaves help collect energy and sunlight for the plant to live off of during the winter. It basically needs them for processing and helping them with their food. Also food is stored in every pine needles mitochondrion or the powerhouse of their cell structure. In the mitochondrion their is things like chloropasts. These are like the energy or food for the cell. So when the tree cant draw nutrients from its roots or soil anymore all the excess things stored in the pine needles will help the tree survive.
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Mass of antimony = 19.75 g
Molar mass of Sb = 121.76 g/mol
Therefore, calculate number of moles of Sb as follows.
Moles of Sb = 
= 
= 0.162 mol
Mass of oxygen given is 6.5 g and molar mass of oxygen is 16 g/mol. Hence, moles of oxygen will be calculated as follows.
Moles of oxygen =
= 
= 0.406 mol
Hence, ratio of moles of Sb and O will be as follows
Sb : O
1 : 2.5
We multiply both the ratio by 2 in order to get a whole number. Therefore, the ratio will be 2 : 5.
Thus, we can conclude that the empirical formula of the given oxide is 
.
The answer is (3) metallic. Cobalt is a transition metal, so it can't be covalent bonds, which bond non-metals, therefore eliminating choice 1 and 2. Ionic bonds are between metals and non metals, but solid cobalt does not have a non metal, eliminating choice 4 as well. Metallic bonds are bonds between metals, therefore the answer is (3) metallic.
