Answer:
CHO
Explanation:
Carbon = 41%, Hydrogen = 4.58%, oxygen = 54.6%
Step 1:
Divide through by their respective relative atomic masses
41/ 12, 4.58/1, 54.6/16
3.41 4.58 3.41
Step 2:
Divide by the lowest ratio:
3.41/3.41, 4.58/3.41, 3.41/3.41
1, 1, 1
Hence the empirical formula is CHO
The correct response is A. Only the Fe is unbalanced.
Answer:Mechanical weathering
weathering breaks down rocks by forming new minerals that are stable at the Earth's surface.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Empirical formula = C₂H₃O
Molecular formula = C₁₄H₂₁O₇
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
Empirical formula
Moles of;
Carbon = 55.8 /12 = 4.65 moles
Hydrogen = 7.04/ 1 = 7.04 moles
Oxygen = 37.16/ 16 = 2.3225 moles
We then get the mole ratio;
4.65/2.3225 = 2.0
7.04/2.3225 = 3.0
2.3225/2.3225 = 1.0
Therefore;
The empirical formula = <u>C₂H₃O</u>
Molecular formula;
(C2H3O)n = 301.35 g
(12 ×2 + 3× 1 + 16×1)n = 301.35
43n = 301.35
n = 7
Therefore;
Molecular formula = (C2H3O)7
<u> = C₁₄H₂₁O₇</u>
I believe the a is the correct answer is d
