Answer:

the empirical (lowest raios) is

C2H4Cl    

Explanation:

A compound is known to consist solely of carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine. Through elemental analysis, it was determined that the compound is composed of 24.27% carbon.

What is the empirical formula of this compound?

the compound has ONLY C, H, and Cl

the % Cl  = 100% - 24.27% -4.03% = 71.7%

in 100 gm, there are 71.7 gm Cl, 24.27 gm C, and 4.03 gm H

the number of moles are Cl=71.7/70.91 =1.01= ~ 1

                                          C = 24.27/12.0 = 2.02 =~ 2

                                           H = 403/1.01 = 3.97 =~   4

so   the empirical (lowest raios) is

C2H4Cl

(h) The student made observations related to the contents of the Erlenmeyer flask during the titration. Identify an observation
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

During titration indicators are often used to identify chemical changes between reacting species.

For colorless solutions in which no noticeable changes can easily be seen, indicators are the best bet. Most titration processes involves a combination of acids and bases to an end point.

Indicators are substances whose color changes to signal the end of an acid-base reaction. Examples are methyl orange, methyl red, phenolphthalein, litmus, cresol red, cresol green, alizarin R3, bromothymol blue and congo red.

Most of these indicators have various colors when chemical changes occur.

Also, there are heat changes that accompanies most of these reactions. These are also indicators of chemical changes.

How do the properties of a compound like h2o or nacl illustrate the concept of emergent properties?
Softa [21]

Answer and explanation;

Na - metal

Cl - poisonous gas

NaCl - cyrstaline solid that is edible

An emergent property is a property which a collection or complex system has, but which the individual members do not.  

Water emergent properties: cohesion & adhesion, versatile solvent, temperature moderation, freezing.

The properties of a compound can be very different from the properties of the elements that make them, for example, Sodium is an explosive metal, and  Chlorine is a toxic gas, however, sodium chloride is a Delicious table salt!
