The law of conservation of mass dictates that the total mass of reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products. Thus:
mass(MgO) = mass(Mg) + mass(O)
mass(MgO) = 24 + 16
mass(MgO) = 40 g
The third option is correct.
The formula for the molecular formula is molar mass/ empirical formula
So, the empirical formula of C3H7 is equal to C*3 + H*7 which is equal to 12*3 + 7. Then use the molecular formula = 86 / (12*3+7) = 2
Therefore, the molecular formula is 2 times the empirical formula which is C6H14.
The effective nuclear charge is the net positive charge experienced by valence electrons
The pressure of the gas will increase with the temperature as each molecule moves around. think of hot air balloons the way they inflate that big balloon is a flame underneath the gas which increases temperature and pressure.
