Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion. Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position
When the substance is said to be an oxide of iron, that means the compound contains elements of Fe and O. Suppose you have 100 g of the sample.
Mass of Fe = 72.36 g
Mass of O = 100 - 72.36 = 27.64 g
The molar mass of Fe is 55.8 g/mol while the molar mass of O is 16 g/mol.
Moles of Fe = 72.36/55.8 = 1.29677
Moles of O = 27.64/16 = 1.7275
Now, divide both amounts by the lower number, which is 1.29677.
Fe: 1.29677/1.29677 = 1
O = 1.7275/1.29677 = 1.333
The answer must be whole numbers. So, let's try multiplying the least number to O that would make it a whole number. That would be 3.
Fe: 1*3 = 3
O: 1.333*3 = 4
<em>Thus, the empirical formula is Fe₃O₄.</em>
First you need to calculate the molar mass of H2O. To do that, look at the periodic table and add up the AMUs (atomic mass units)
H = 1.01
O = 16.0
1.01 • 2 + 16.0 = 18.02
Next, use stoichiometry to convert grams into moles. To do that, divide 814.504g by the number of grams in one mole of H2O.
814.504 ÷ 18.02 = 45.2 moles
There are 45.2 moles in 814.504 grams of H2O.
The ability of a liquid to flow up a narrow tube which is unassisted against the gravity of the attraction between molecules of the same substance. The curvature which is of the surface of a liquid at the interface with the container, the attraction between dissimilar molecules for the resistance of a liquid to flow the elasticity of surface layer of liquid because of the liquid trying to minimize its surface area.
