The empirical formula gives the relative ratio of atoms in each element. Therefore, it simplifies the whole numbers. For example C2H6 can be reduced to CH3 because they share the greatest common factor (2). The answer to this question would be #1. C4H10 can be reduced to C2H5 because 4 and 10 are both divisible by 2. C2H5 can not be reduced any further. All of the other options do not have a greatest common factor making them a empirical formula.

What happens to pressure as temperature increases and temperature decreases

likoan [24]

When temperature increases pressure also increases.

When temperature decreases pressure decreases.

That is why you have low tire pressure when it’s cold out

Two methanol-water mixtures are contained in separate tanks. The first mixture contains 40.0 wt% methanol and the second contain

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

$M_{per}= 52.86$

$W_{per}=47.14$

Explanation:

First mixture:

40 wt% methanol - 60 wt% water 200 kg

$m_{met1}=200 kg * 0.4= 80 kg$

$m_{wat1}=200 kg * 0.6= 120 kg$

Second mixture:

70 wt% methanol - 30 wt% water 150 kg

$m_{met2}=150 kg * 0.7= 105 kg$

$m_{wat2}=150 kg * 0.3= 45 kg$

Final mixture:

$m_{metF=80 kg + 105 kg= 185 kg$

$m_{watF}=120 kg + 45 = 165 kg$

$M_{per}=\frac{185 kg}{185 kg + 165 kg}*100= 52.86$

$W_{per}=\frac{165 kg}{185 kg + 165 kg}*100=47.14$

If, the compositions are constant, the only variables are the mass of each mixture used in the final one, so there can be only one independent balance.

Give an example where handpicking is used for separation. (1)

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

If you want to separate black grapes from the mixture of black and green grapes, then you will simply pick black grapes using your hands from the mixture. In this way you are actually using handpicking separation method.
