For this item, we find first the mass of the compound with the empirical formula. That is,
molar mass = 12 (for C) + 1 (for H)
= 13 g/mole
Then, we divide the given mass of the molecular formula by the mass of the empirical formula.
n = 52.07 / 13 = 4
Therefore, the molecular formula is C₄H₄.
Yes
Explanation:
Valence electrons on the periodic table of elements shows a repeating or periodic pattern. There is a noticeable pattern that can be deduced from the valence electrons in the orbitals of atoms.
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an element
The periodic table arranges elements based on their atomic numbers. This number denotes the number of protons or electrons an atom contains.
- The table is divided into groups which are the vertical columns into which elements are classified.
- The horizontal rows are called periods.
- A period begins with one valence electron and ends with an atom having complete outer shell structure of an inert gas.
- Down a group the valence electron is the same. The group number denotes the number of valence electrons in a group. Group 1 has just one valence electron in their outermost shell.

Answer:

Explanation:
The HF is about five million times as strong as phenol, so it will be by far the major contributor of hydronium ions. We can ignore the contribution from the phenol.
1 .Calculate the hydronium ion concentration
We can use an ICE table to organize the calculations.
HF + H₂O ⇌ H₃O⁺ + F⁻

"Like dissolves like" is an expression used by chemists to remember how some solvents work. It refers to "polar" and "non-polar" solvents and solutes. Basic example: Water is polar. Oil is non polar. Like dissolves like, that means polar dissolves polar, so water dissolves salt.
