First, a dirty little secret: scientists don't actually measure astronomical distances in light years. Rather, they measure them in a unit called the Parsecs

If Oxygen were to gain 2 electrons, the new electron configuration for the oxide ion
Naddika [18.5K]
It would be most similar to neon. it wouldn’t be sulfur because that’s in the same group as oxygen and has the same number of electrons. and carbon has less than that so the only one that makes sense is neon

Calculate the percentage of each element in acetic acid, hc2h3o2, and glucose, c6h12o6.
My name is Ann [436]
<em>Acetic acid, HC2H3O2</em>

First, calculate for the molar mass of acetic acid as shown below.
    M = 1 + 2(12) + 3(1) + 2(16) = 60 g

Then, calculating for the percentages of each element.
<em> Hydrogen:</em>
    P1 = ((4)(1)/60)(100%) = <em>6.67%</em>

<em> Carbon:</em>
   P2 = ((2)(12)/60)(100%) = <em>40%</em>

<em>Oxygen</em>
  P3 =((2)(16) / 60)(100%) = <em>53.33%</em>

<em>Glucose, C6H12O6</em>

The molar mass of glucose is as calculated below,
   6(12) + 12(1) + 6(16) = 180

The percentages of the elements are as follow,
 <em> Hydrogen:</em>
   P1 = (12/180)(100%) = <em>6.67%</em>

<em>Carbon:</em>
  P2 = ((6)(12) / 180)(100%) = <em>40%</em>

<em>Oxygen:</em>
  P3 = ((6)(16) / 180)(100%) = <em>53.33%</em>

b. Since the empirical formula of the given substances are just the same and can be written as CH2O then, the percentages of each element composing them will just be equal.

The equation for the formation of water from hydrogen gas and oxygen gas is 2H2+O2→2H2O.
inn [45]

Answer:

180g

Explanation:

H:1   O:16

2H2+O2 → 2H2O

 2   2(16)       2(1)+(16)

        32              18

Now,

       32g of O → 2(18)g of H2O

       160g of O → 2(18)g divides by 32g times 160g

                            =180g
