Answer:

A.water is a molecule

Explanation:

water is a molecule not a element

ELEN [110]3 years ago

Answer: A. It is an element.

Explanation: An element cannot be broken down into simpler substances. For example, oxygen and hydrogen are elements.
A compound is two or more elements joined by electrons. Water is a compound.
The formula for water is H2O, which can be read as “two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atoms.” Therefore, water contains both oxygen and hydrogen.

A compound is found to contain 58.80 % xenon, 7.166 % oxygen, and 34.04 % fluorine by mass. what is the empirical formula for th
marissa [1.9K]
To make it easier, assume that we have a total of 100 g of a compound. Hence, we have 58.80g of xenon, 7.166g of oxygen, and 34.04g of fluorine. 
Know we will convert each of these masses to moles by using the atomic masses:

58.8/131.3 = 0.45 mole of Xe
7.166/16 = 0.45 mole of O
34.04/19 = 1.79 mole of F

Now, we will divide all the mole numbers by the smallest among them and get the number of atoms in the compound:

Xe = 0.45/0.45 = 1
O = 045/0.45 = 1
F = 1.79/0.45 = 3.98 = 4

So, the empirical formula of the compound XeOF₄

Why do transition metals have similar properties in terms of electronic structure??
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The reason that that elements in the same 'group' have similar chemical properties is because they have the same number of valence electrons. ... Iron when reacting in chemical reactions loses electrons from its 4s orbital instead of its d orbital

Express the equilibrium constant for the following reaction.P4O10(s) ↔ P4(s) + 5 O2(g)K = [P4][O2]^5/[P4O10]K = [O2]^5K = [P4O10
Alex17521 [72]

Answer : The correct expression for equilibrium constant will be, K=[O_2]^5

Explanation :

Equilibrium constant : It is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

The equilibrium expression for the reaction is determined by multiplying the concentrations of products and divided by the concentrations of the reactants and each concentration is raised to the power that is equal to the coefficient in the balanced reaction.

As we know that the concentrations of pure solids are constant that is they do not change. Thus, they are not included in the equilibrium expression.

The given equilibrium reaction is,

P_4O_{10}(s)\rightleftharpoons P_4(s)+5O_2(g)

The expression of K will be,

K=[O_2]^5

Therefore, the correct expression for equilibrium constant will be, K=[O_2]^5

Explain how a Buffer acts to resist pH change in a system upon addition of an acid or a base
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Explanation has been given below.

Explanation:

  • A buffer consists of either of a weak acid along with it's conjugate base or a weak base along with it's conjugate acid.
  • Let's consider a buffer consists of a weak acid along with it's conjugate base
  • If we add an acid to this buffer then conjugate base gets protonated and converted to corresponding weak acid. So effect of addition of acid gets neutralized by forming weak acid rather than increase in concentration of proton in solution.
  • If we add a base to this buffer then weak acid gets converted to corresponding conjugate base. So effect of addition of base gets neutralized by forming conjugate base rather than in crease in concentration of hydroxyl ion in solution.
