Answer:

SO3

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

S = 40%

O = 59%

To obtain the empirical formula, do the following:

Divide the above by their molar mass as shown below:

S = 40/32 = 1.25

O = 59/16 = 3.69

Next, divide by the smallest as shown below:

S = 1.25/125 = 1

O = 3.69/1.25 = 3

Therefore, the empirical formula is SO3

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Independent: sizes of nails

Dependent: number of paper clips

Controlled: Battery, wire and type of nails

Explanation:

An independent variable is a variable which when changes does not the effect the results of the experiment. It does not depends upon the dependent variable.

A dependent variable is defined as a variable which is affected when the independent variable is changed by the researcher or the experimenter. It depends greatly upon the independent variable.

While a controlled variable is that variable whose value is not changed in an experiment. It contains all the constants.

In the context,

the independent variable are : sizes of nails

the dependent variables are : number of paper clips

the Controlled variables are: Battery, wire and type of nails

Which term names enzymes in the body that speed up chemical reactions?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Catalyst speeds up the chemical reactions. Catalyst is the compound that adds to the chemical reaction so that it happen more quickly. Catalyst without being consumed in the reaction accelerates the reaction. It lowers down the activation energy of the transition state and thus accelerates the reaction.
