Answer:

               Molecular Formula = C₄O₂H₈

Explanation:

Molecular formula is calculated from following formula.

Molecular Formula = n(Empirical formula)

The formula for n is given as,

n = Molecular Formula Mass / Empirical Formula Mass

Molecular Formula mass = 88 g/mol

Empirical formula mass = 44

Putting values,

n = 88 / 44 = 2

Now,

Molecular Formula = 2(C₂OH₄)

Molecular Formula = C₄O₂H₈

In determining nuclear binding energy, what is Einstein's equation used to do?
natita [175]
Basically this is used in calculating the nuclear binding energy by converting the mass defect (calculated first) to energy and if we recall, Einstein's equation E=mc2 is the perfection equation to use because E=mc2 in which E represents units of energy, m represents units of mass, and c 2 is the speed of light squared.

A gas cylinder initially contains 463 L of gas at a pressure of 159 atm. If the final volume of gas is 817 L, what is the final
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The final pressure is 90.1 atm.

Explanation:

Assuming constant temperature, we can solve this problem by using <em>Boyle's Law</em>, which states:

  • P₁V₁=P₂V₂

Where in this case:

  • P₁ = 159 atm
  • V₁ = 463 L
  • P₂ = ?
  • V₂ = 817 L

We <u>input the given data</u>:

  • 159 atm * 463 L = P₂ * 817 L

And <u>solve for P₂</u>:

  • P₂ = 90.1 atm

The final pressure is 90.1 atm.
