What is the least appropriate hypothesis for Eric to make?

What are the reference points in thermometer with Celsius scale?

kupik [55]

The most likely answer is the boiling point and freezing point of water. The Celsius scale starts at the freezing point of water (0°C) and than scaled so that 100°C fell on the boiling point of water.

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Oxalic Acid, a compound found in plants and vegetables such as rhubarb, has a mass percent composition of 26.7% C, 2.24% H, and

blondinia [14]

Answer:

HCO₂

Explanation:

From the information given:

The mass of the elements are:

Carbon C = 26.7 g; Hydrogen H = 2.24 g Oxygen O = 71.1 g

To determine the empirical formula;

First thing is to find the numbers of moles of each atom.

For Carbon:

$=26.7 \ g\times \dfrac{1 \ mol }{12.01 \ g} \\ \\ =2.22 \ mol \ of \ Carbon$

For Hydrogen:

$=2.24 \ g\times \dfrac{1 \ mol }{1.008 \ g} \\ \\ =2.22 \ mol \ of \ Hydrogen$

For Oxygen:

$=71.1 \ g\times \dfrac{1 \ mol }{1.008 \ g} \\ \\ =4.44 \ mol \ of \ oxygen$

Now; we use the smallest no of moles to divide the respective moles from above.

For carbon:

$\dfrac{2.22 \ mol \ of \ carbon}{2.22} =1 \ mol \ of \ carbon$

For Hydrogen:

$\dfrac{2.22 \ mol \ of \ carbon}{2.22} =1 \ mol \ of \ hydrogen$

For Oxygen:

$\dfrac{4.44 \ mol \ of \ Oxygen}{2.22} =2 \ mol \ of \ oxygen$

Thus, the empirical formula is HCO₂

4.Calculate the volume of 40g of Helium (He) at rtp.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

2.24dm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of He = 40g

Unknown:

Volume of Helium = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we convert the given mass to number of moles.

Number of moles = $\frac{mass}{molar mass}$

molar mass of He = 4g/mol

Number of moles = $\frac{4}{40}$ = 0.1mole

So;

1 mole of gas at rtp occupies a volume of 22.4dm³

0.1 mole of He will occupy a volume of 0.1 x 22.4 = 2.24dm³

What are some compare and contrasts between Terrestrial Planets and Gas Planets?

dexar [7]

<h3>The different types of planets would be the gas giants all have more than 12 moons whereas the terrestrial planets all have less than 3 moons. A second difference is that that gas giants are all larger in diameter than the terrestrial planets. Also the Gas Giants are usually bigger than Terrestrial Planets. Gas Giants also have thicker atmospheres, and have gaseous surfaces. Terrestrial planet tend to be smaller, and have solid surfaces. In our solar system, Mercury, Venus, Earth (home), and Mars are Terrestrial planets.I am glad to help anytime ...Brainliest?</h3>

Which Of These Is An Indication That A Chemical Reaction Has Occurred?

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Correct option is D. Formation Of A Gas

Explanation

The main indication of chemical is that new substances are formed which have different composition than reactant.

Freezing of a substance: As in this case composition remained same, so we cant say, chemical reaction is take place, like when water freezes, it composition is same as water , so it is only its physical properties, not chemical.

Melting of a substance: As in this case composition remained same, so we cant say, chemical reaction is take place, like when ice melts, composition of water remained same , so it its physical properties, not chemical.

Boiling of a substance: As in this case composition remained same, so we cant say, chemical reaction is take place, like when water boils and become vapors, composition of water and vapors remained same , so it its physical properties, not chemical properties which show its chemical reaction.

Formation of gas:

In this case, chemical reaction take place. In chemical reactions, new substance are formed whose composition is different from reactants.
