The empirical formula of the given compound is \bold{SO_3}.

The correct option is B.

<h3>What is an empirical formula?</h3>

The empirical formula of a chemical compound is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms contained in the substance.

Given,

1.0 g of S

1.5 g of O

To calculate the empirical formula, we will divide the masses of the elements by their atomic weight.

For sulfur

\bold{\dfrac{1.0}{32} =0.03125\; mol}

For oxygen

\bold{\dfrac{1.5}{16} =0.09375\; mol}

Now, divide the greater value of mole came by the smaller value

\bold{\dfrac{0.09375\; mol}{0.03125\;mol} = 3}

Thus, the empirical formula for the given compound is 1 for S and 3 for O

\bold{SO_3}

What is the pH of a solution made by mixing 30.00 mL 0.10 M HCl with 40.00 mL of 0.10 M KOH? Assume that the volumes of the solu
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

pH = 12.15

Explanation:

To determine the pH of the HCl and KOH mixture, we need to know that the reaction is  a neutralization type.

HCl  +  KOH  →  H₂O  +  KCl

We need to determine the moles of each compound

M = mmol / V (mL) → 30 mL . 0.10 M = 3 mmoles of HCl

M = mmol / V (mL) → 40 mL . 0.10 M = 4 mmoles of KOH

The base is in excess, so the HCl will completely react and we would produce the same mmoles of KCl

HCl  +  KOH  →  H₂O  +  KCl

3 m       4 m                       -

             1 m                      3 m

As the KCl is a neutral salt, it does not have any effect on the pH, so the pH will be affected, by the strong base.

1 mmol of KOH has 1 mmol of OH⁻, so the [OH⁻] will be 1 mmol / Tot volume

[OH⁻] 1 mmol / 70 mL = 0.014285 M

- log [OH⁻] = 1.85 → pH = 14 - pOH → 14 - 1.85 = 12.15

Match the following ​
Ket [755]

Answer:

Ai --> Bii

Aii --> Bi

Aiii --> Bv

Aiv --> Biii

Av --> Biv

Explanation:

For Ai, naphthalene sublimes directly from a solid to gas when heated at around 80 degree Celsius.

For Aii, Ozone has a molecular formula of O₃.

For Aiii, weeds are normally considered as "unwanted" plants. Many people may consider using herbicides to clear the weeds in their gardens.

For Aiv, filtration is a physical method for separating solid and liquid from a mixture. A filter paper is normally used, in which the complex structure of the paper only allows fluid to pass through it, but not the solid ones. The solid left behind on the filter paper is called "residue".

For Av, photosynthesis is a chemical reaction that occurs in the leaves of a plant, which produces food for plants to survive. Carbon dioxide, water and light are required for photosynthesis to take place.

A compound has the empirical formula CH and a molar mass of 78.11 g/mol . Find its molecular formula.
Reil [10]

Answer:

Molecular Formula = C6H6

Explanation:

Empirical Formular = CH

Molar Mass = 78.11

Molecular Formular = ?

The Formular relating these parameters is given as;

(Empirical Formula)n = Molecular Formular

where n = Number of moles

CH = 12.0107 + 1.00784 = 13.01854

(13.01854)n = 78.11

n = 78.11 / 13.01854

n = 5.9999 ≈ 6

Molecular Formula = C6H6
