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.

Which equation represents a nuclear reaction that an example of an artificial transmutation?
blsea [12.9K]

Answer is: 2) 14/7 N + 4/2 He --> 17/8 O + 1/1 H.

Transmutation is a process that involves a change in the nucleus of an atom. It can be natural or artificial.

This example is the first artificial nuclear transmutation described by Rutherford in 1919.

Artificial transmutation can be expressed by nuclear reaction:

Target Nuclide + Bombardment Particle → New Nuclide + Ejected Particle.

How many atoms of gold are there in 5 moles of a gold sample ?
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

30.11 × 10²³ atoms

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of gold = 5 mol

Number of atoms = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.  The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

5 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms /1 mol

30.11 × 10²³ atoms

The speed of light is 3.0 x 10^8 m.s^-1. what is the speed in nm.ms^-1 ?
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

c=3\times 10^{17}\ nm/s

Explanation:

The speed of light is 3\times 10^8\ m/s. It is required to convert it into nm/s.

The relation between nm and m is as follows :

1\ nm=10^{-9}\ m\\\\1\ m=10^9\ nm

So,

c=3\times 10^8\ m/s \\\\c=3\times 10^8\times 10^9\ nm/s\\\\c=3\times 10^{17}\ nm/s

So, the speed of light is 3\times 10^{17}\ nm/s.
