The empirical formula of carbon sulfide = C3S2

calculation

calculate the mass of S used = 124-44.6= 79.4 grams

find the moles of each element

that is carbon(C)= 44.6/12= 3.717 moles    

          sulfur (S) = 79.4/32= 2.48 moles

find the mole ratio by dividing each mole with the smallest mole( 2.48)

that is carbon = 3.717/2.48 = 1.5

        sulfur = 2.48/2.48= 1

multiply by 2 to remove the decimal

= C=1.5 x2=3

S= 1/2 =2

therefore the empirical formula = C3S2

In which way would a drought affect how rodents get their energy?
love history [14]

Answer:

<h3>When a drought occurs, their food supply can shrink and their habitat can be damaged. ... Losses or destruction of fish and wildlife habitat. Lack of food and drinking water for wild animals. Increase in disease in wild animals, because of reduced food and water supplies.</h3><h3>While insects and cacti might provide a meagre supply of water, most desert animals survive by being what Price calls "water misers". ... To perform this feat, they have evolved specialized kidneys with extra microscopic tubules for extracting water from urine.</h3>

__________ ammonium compounds are less effective against gram-negative bacteria and more effective against gram-positive bacteri
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Quartenary.

Explanation:

Quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) are cationic salts of organically substituted ammonium compounds and have a broad range of activity against microorganisms, i.e more effective against Gram-positive bacterium at lower concentrations than Gram-negative bacteria.

It was also reported previously that monoalkyl QACs bind by ionic and hydrophobic interactions to microbial membrane surfaces, with the cationic head group facing outwards and the hydrophobic tails inserted into the lipid bilayer, causing the rearrangement of the membrane and the subsequent leakage of intracellular constituents.
