What is the empirical formula for CaCo3?*

Chemistry
1 answer:
GalinKa [24]2 years ago
5 0

This problem is requiring the empirical formula for CaCO₃, which is its molecular formula, and turns out to be equal, this is A. CaCO3 according to the following:

<h3>Empirical formulas:</h3><h3 />

In chemistry, molecular formulas show both the actual type and number of atoms in a chemical compound, based on the elements across the periodic table and the subscripts standing for the number of atoms in the compound.

However, the empirical formula is a reduced expression of the molecular one, which shows the minimum number of atoms in a compound after simplifying to the smallest whole numbers.

In such a way, since the given compound is CaCO₃ and both Ca and C have a one as their subscript, it is not possible to simplify any further and therefore the empirical formula equals the molecular one this time, making the answer to be A. CaCO3.

18. Suggest an explanation for the observations that ethanol, C2H5OH, is completely miscible with water and that ethanethiol, C2
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

              Ethanol is completely miscible due to <u><em>presence</em></u> of Hydrogen bonding.

              Ethanethiol is partially miscible due to <u><em>absence</em></u> of Hydrogen Bonding.

Explanation:

                     The miscibility of liquids depend upon the intermolecular interactions between the two liquids. The stronger the intermolecular interactions the more miscible will be the liquids.

Among the two given examples, Ethanol is more miscible in water because it exhibits hydrogen bonding which is considered the strongest intermolecular interaction. Hydrogen bonding occurs when the hydrogen atom is bonded to more electronegative atoms like Fluorine, Oxygen and Nitrogen. In this way the hydrogen atom gets partial positive charge and the electronegative atom gets partial negative charge. Hence, these partial charges results in attracting the opposite charges on other surrounding atoms.

While, in case of Ethanethiol the hydrogen atom is not bonded to any high electronegative atom hence, there will be no hydrogen bonding and therefore, there will be less interactions between the neighbour atoms.

What is the smallest unit that makes up matter? A. molecules B. chemicals C. atoms D. alloys
Kamila [148]

Hello there!

An Atom would be considered to be the smallest unit that would make up matter. If were to ever see a picture of an atom, they would consists of a proton, neutron, electron, and a nucleus. And all this would be called a Atom.

Your answer: Atom

A scientist wants to make a solution of tribasic sodium phosphate, Na3PO4, for a laboratory experiment. How many grams of Na3PO4
ddd [48]

Answer:

178.35g

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution can be calculated using the formula:

Molarity = number of moles ÷ volume

Based on the information provided in this question, molarity (M) of the solution = 1.50 M, volume = 725 mL = 725/1000 = 0.725L, n = ?

1.50 = n / 0.725

n = 1.50 × 0.725

n = 1.0875mol

Molar mass of Na3PO4

23(3) + 31 + 16(4)

= 69 + 31 + 64

= 164g/mol

Mole = mass ÷ molar mass

1.0875 = mass/164

mass = 178.35g

Consider a reaction that has a positive ΔH and a positive ΔS. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A) This reaction will be
Alja [10]

Answer: A) This reaction will be spontaneous only at high temperatures

Explanation:

\Delta G= +ve, reaction is non spontaneous

\Delta G= -ve, reaction is spontaneous

\Delta G= 0, reaction is in equilibrium

Using Gibbs Helmholtz equation:

\Delta G=\Delta H-T\Delta S

Given : \Delta H=+ve

\Delta S=+ve

\Delta G=(+ve)-T(+ve)

\Delta G=(+ve)(-ve)

Thus the value of  \Delta G  is negative and spontaneous when temperature is high.
