Answer:

C4H6

Explanation:

See attached table

Convert each of the masses into moles by dividing the mass by the molar mass of that element.  That yields 3.83 moles of C and 6 moles of O.  I rounded up the C to 4 moles to result in an empirical formula of C4H6

A chemist determines by measurements that moles of nitrogen gas participate in a chemical reaction. Calculate the mass of nitrog
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

0.56 g

Explanation:

<em>A chemist determines by measurements that 0.020 moles of nitrogen gas participate in a chemical reaction. Calculate the mass of nitrogen gas that participates.</em>

Step 1: Given data

Moles of nitrogen gas (n): 0.020 mol

Step 2: Calculate the molar mass (M) of nitrogen gas

Molecular nitrogen is a gas formed by diatomic molecules, whose chemical formula is N₂. Its molar mass is:

M(N₂) = 2 × M(N) = 2 × 14.01 g/mol = 28.02 g/mol

Step 3: Calculate the mass (m) corresponding to 0 0.020 moles of nitrogen gas

We will use the following expression.

m = n × M

m = 0.020 mol × 28.02 g/mol

m = 0.56 g

5. Why doesn't the air at a frontal boundary mix?​
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

At a front, the two air masses have different densities, based on temperature, and do not easily mix. One air mass is lifted above the other, creating a low pressure zone.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!
