The empirical formula of the compound obtained from the question given is NaBrO₃

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>
  • Sodium (Na) = 15.24%
  • Bromine (Br) = 52.95%
  • Oxygen (O) = 31.81%
  • Empirical formula =?

<h3>How to determine the empirical formula </h3>

The empirical formula of the compound can be obtained as illustrated below:

Divide by their molar mass

Na = 15.24 / 22.99 = 0.663

Br = 52.95 / 79.90 = 0.663

O = 31.81 / 16 = 1.988

Divide by the smallest

Na = 0.663 / 0.663 = 1

Br = 0.663 / 0.663 = 1

O = 1.988 / 0.663 = 3

Thus, the empirical formula of the compound is NaBrO₃

Airida [17]

Answer:

Callie expect 600 molecules of CO2 to have been released as a waste during the same amount of time.

Explanation:

During cellular respiration 1 molecule of glucose undergoes oxidation to form 6 molecules of CO2 as a waste product.

     According to the question callie determined that the germinating corn seed had utilized 100 molecules of glucose.

    So 100 molecules of glucose will release 100×6=600 molecules of CO2 as a waste product.

Answer:

Temporary hardness is a type of water hardness caused by the presence of dissolved bicarbonate minerals (calcium bicarbonate and magnesium bicarbonate). ... However, unlike the permanent hardness caused by sulfate and chloride compounds, this "temporary" hardness can be reduced by boiling the water.

Calculate the number of moles<br> 230 g of C2H5OH <br> 560 g of C2H4 <br> 0.640 g of SO2
Naddik [55]
Mass of C = 12g
mass of H = 1g
mass of O = 16g
mass of C2H5OH = 46g = 1 mole

1 mole of C2H5OH ------------ 46g
x moles of C2H5OH ----------- 230g
x = 5 moles of C2H5OH

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mass of C = 12g
mass of H = 1g
mass of C2H4 = 28g = 1 mole

1 mole of C2H4 -------------- 28g
x moles of C2H4 ------------- 560g
x = 20 moles of C2H4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mass of S = 32g
mass of O = 16g
mass of SO2 = 64g = 1 mole

1 mole of SO2--------------------- 64g
x mole of SO2 -------------------- 0,64g
x = 0,01 moles of SO2
