Data: molar mass 470 g/mol
Percent composition:
Hg = 85.0%
Cl = 15.0%
Solution:
1) Convert % to molar ratios
A. Base: 100 g
=> Hg = 85.0 g / 200.59 g/mol = 0.4235 mol
Cl = 15.0 g / 35.45 g/mol = 0.4231 mol
B. divide by the higher number and round to whole number
Hg = 0.4325 / 0.4231 = 1.00
Cl = 0.4231 / 0.4231 = 1.00
=> Empirical formula = Hg Cl
2) Find the mass of the empirical formula:
HgCl: 200.59 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol = 236.04
3) Determine how many times is the empirical mass contained in the molecular mass:
470 g/mol / 236.04 = 1.99 ≈ 2
=> Molecular formula = Hg2 Cl2.

Answer:
structure of a muscle cell
Answer: 4 hydrogens
Explanation:
This is what the structure will look like C=C. Remember that it's important that all structures have a complete octet. As it looks right now each carbon is sharing 4 valence electrons so each needs 2 more bonds to hydrogen complete its octet.
Answer:
Explanation:
Depending on the elements that are being combined, a chemical reaction could occur and cause a change of color to take place if the elements reacts to the other one.
