Answer:
CH₂ ; 67.1 %
Explanation:
To determine the empirical formula we need to find what the mole ratio is in whole numbers of the atoms in the compound. To do that we will first need the atomic weights of C and H and then perform our calculation
Assume 100 grams of the compound.
# mol C = 85.7 g / 12.01 g/mol = 7.14 mol
# mol H = 14.3 g / 1.008 g/mol = 14.19 mol
The proportion is 14.9 mol H/ 7.14 mol C = 2 mol H/ 1 mol C
So the empirical formula is CH₂
For the second part we will need to first calculate the theoretical yield for the 12.03 g NaBH₄ reacted and then calculate the percent yield given the 0.295 g B₂H₆ produced.
We need to calculate the moles of NaBH₄ ( M.W = 37.83 g/mol )
1.203 g NaBH₄ / 37.83 g/mol = 0.0318 mol
Theoretical yield from balanced chemical equation:
0.0318 mol NaBH₄ x 1 mol B₂H₆ / mol NaBH₄ = 0.0159 mol B₂H₆
Theoretical mass yield B₂H₆ = 0.0159 mol x 27.66 g/ mol = 0.440 g
% yield = 0.295 g/ 0.440 g x 100 = 67.1 %
False
Although we use many of their ideas to describe atoms today, such as the existence of a tiny, dense nucleus in an atom (proposed by Rutherford), or the notion that all atoms of an element are identical (proposed by Dalton), some of their ideas have been rejected by the modern theory of the atom.
For example, Thompson came up with the plum pudding model to describe an atom, which resembled a sphere of positive charge with electrons embedded in it. We know now, however, that atoms are mostly empty space with a tiny, dense nucleus.
Another example is Dalton's atomic theory, which stated that atoms are indivisible particles. However, this was disproved by the discovery of subatomic particles.
Answer:
Burning of paper is not a physical change.It is chemical change as ash is formed in the process which is new compound and oxides of carbon are also released during the process!
ANSWER: B) drying paint
EXPLANATION: Car manufacturers use UV radiation to dry the paint o the vehicle. The high reflectivity of infrared radiation helps to keep the car interior cool. It also gives advantages over convection heating. It can provide both high intensity and low intensity heat and is a low cost heat source when compared in dollars per unit of energy consumed. The IR heating also doesn't penetrate deeply and apply heating only on the outer surface.
