Answer:

B. CH₅N

Explanation:

The combustion reaction of a compound CₐHₓNₙ with O₂ is:

CₐHₓNₙ + O₂ → a CO₂ + X/2 H₂O + n NO₂

Where 1 mole of CₐHₓNₙ with an excess of O₂ produce a moles of CO₂, X/2 moles of H₂O and n moles of NO₂

Thus, you need to convert the mass of CO₂ and H₂O to moles to find the C:H ratio and determine a possible empirical formula thus:

Moles CO₂ (Molar mass 44g/mol):

44g ₓ (1mol / 44g) = 1 mole CO₂ = 1 mole C

Mole of H₂O (Molar mass 18g/mol):

45g ₓ (1 mol / 18g) = 2.5 moles H₂O = 5 moles H

Thus, in the compound you have 5 moles of H per mole of C, and a possible empirical formula is:

B. CH₅N

The only structure that meet this C:H ratio

zepelin [54]

With a typical 52-card deck that has 4 jacks, Margaret is playing a game. The game is initiated by the first player to choose a jack. When choosing first, Margaret's probability of selecting Jack is 1/13.

The same will occur since probability will be determined using the formula necessary outcome divided by total outcome.

Here, the total number of cards in the deck (total outcome) equals 52.

Given that Margaret can select any of the four jacks, the necessary result (number of jacks) is 4.

Probability is 4/52, or 1 by 13, which is the required probability for the question.

ikadub [295]

The given statement is False. Baker, Schultz, and Halstead argue that the United States can reap significant strategic and economic benefits by investing in cleaner energy technologies and supporting international efforts to reduce carbon emissions.

Carbon emissions are the primary cause of global climate change. It is widely acknowledged that in order to avoid the worst effects of climate change, the world must urgently reduce emissions. However, how this responsibility is distributed among regions, countries, and individuals has long been a source of contention in international discussions.

This debate stems from the various ways emissions are compared, including annual emissions by country, emissions per person, historical contributions, and whether or not they account for traded goods and services. These metrics can tell a variety of stories.
