Carbon can form a wide variety of organic compounds because:
Each carbon atom covalently bonds with toms of carbon, hydrogen oxygen, and nitrogen
A carbon atom can have 4 single valence electrons around it. This allows it to form covalent bonds with many different atoms.
A3B9 represents a molecular formula. The representation of the empirical formula for this compound is AB3. This is so because the empirical formula is the simplest ratio of the atoms present in the molecule. You get AB3 when you divide the subscripts of A3B9, this is 3 and 9, by the greatest common factor, which is 3. 3/3 = 1 and 9/3 = 3, so the subscripts for the empirical formula are 1 and 3, which is what AB3 represents. <span>Answer: AB3.</span>
Molecular weight it stands for molecular weight
Answer:
(a) 0.047 g (b) 0.0016 oz (c) 0.0001 lb
Explanation:
The given mass of the sodium in the slice = 47 mg
(a) Mass has to be calculated in grams
The conversion of mg to g is shown below as:
1 mg = 10⁻³ g
So,
<u>Mass of sodium = 47 × 10⁻³ g = 0.047 g</u>
(b) Mass has to be calculated in ounces
The conversion of ounces to g is shown below as:
453.6 g = 16 oz
Or,
1 g = 16 / 453.6 oz
So,
<u>Mass of sodium = (0.047 × 16) / 453.6 oz = 0.0016 oz</u>
(c) Mass has to be calculated in pounds
The conversion of pounds to g is shown below as:
1 lb = 453.6 g
Or,
1 g = 1/ 453.6 lb
So,
<u>Mass of sodium = (0.047 × 1) / 453.6 oz = 0.0001 lb</u>
