Answer:

C8H20P4F8

Explanation:

Molecular formula is based off a ratio of the molecular formula's molar mass divided by the empirical formula's molar mass.

The molar mass of the empirical formula C2H5PF2 is 98.02g. We find this by adding the molar masses of all elements in the formula, multiplied by their subscripts.

2(12.01) + 5(1.01) + 30.97 + 2(18.99) = 98.02

We then divide the molecular molar mass by the empirical molar mass.

392.16/98.02 = 4

This tells us that the molecular formula has 4 times the mass of the empirical formula. Because mass comes from the elements in the formula, we multiply all the subscripts by 4 to get the molecular formula.

2x4 = 8

5x4 = 20

1x4 = 4

2x4 = 8

So the molecular formula is C8H20P4F8

These little bunnies (A, B, and C) were born in the same litter to the same parents, but they have different traits for the feat
marta [7]

Answer:

Due to random assortment and incomplete dominance of alleles.

Explanation:

The bunnies end up with ear thicknesses that are different from one another due to random assortment of alleles during gamete formation according to Mendel.

In addition to random assortment, the allele for thick ear also displayed what is known as incomplete dominance over the allele for thin ear to arrive at an average ear thickness.

A 50.0 mL graduated cylinder has a mass of 65.1 g. When it is filled with an unknown liquid to the 49.3 mL mark, the cylinder an
Delvig [45]

<u>Answer:</u> The density of liquid is 1.12g/cm^3

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of cylinder, m_1 = 65.1 g

Mass of liquid and cylinder combined, M = 120.5 g

Mass of liquid, m_2 = (M-m_1)=(120.5-65.1)g=55.4g

To calculate density of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

We are given:

Mass of liquid = 55.4 g

Volume of liquid = 49.3 mL = 49.3 cm^3    (Conversion factor:  1mL=1cm^3 )

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Density of liquid}=\frac{55.4g}{49.3cm^3}\\\\\text{Density of liquid}=1.12g/cm^3

Hence, the density of liquid is 1.12g/cm^3

How many O atoms are in 4C₆H₁₂O₆
ipn [44]

Number of O atoms : 24

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

C₆H₁₂O₆ compound

Required

Number of atoms

Solution

A molecular formula  shows the number of atomic elements in compound.  

The empirical formula is the smallest comparison of the atoms

Glucose-C₆H₁₂O₆ is composed of 3 elements, namely C, H, and O.

The number of atoms in a compound can usually be seen from the subscript number after the atom and the reaction coefficient shows the number of molecules

So number of O atoms :

= 4 x 6 = 24 atoms
