Answer:
C₅H₁₀O₅
Explanation:
1. Calculate the mass of each element in 2.78 mg of X.
(a) Mass of C

(b) Mass of H

(c) Mass of O
Mass of O = 3.5 - 1.400 - 0.2349 = 1.87 g
2. Calculate the moles of each element

3. Calculate the molar ratios
Divide all moles by the smallest number of moles.

4. Round the ratios to the nearest integer
C:H:O = 1:2:1
5. Write the empirical formula
The empirical formula is CH₂O.
6. Calculate the molecular formula.
EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016 + 16.00) u = 30.03 u
The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.
MF = (EF)ₙ

MF = (CH₂O)₅ = C₅H₁₀O₅
The molecular formula of X is C₅H₁₀O₅.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Cell division is a primary procedure by all cells. This process in the life cycle of cells ensures that new cells (daughter cells) are produced. The two major process are; meiosis and mitosis.
Normal cells would divide if the nutrients required are not present, since water is the main nutrient required. But in some cases, the division process may lead to an effect on one or both daughter cells. This effect is called mutation, thereby mutated cells may be produced.
Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope used to date organic material. Its consistent rate of decay allows the age of an object to be determined by the proportion of carbon-14 to other carbon isotopes. This process is called radiocarbon dating. Carbon-14 is also used as a radioactive tracer for medical tests.
Answer:
Mass of carbon dioxide produced = 52.8 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of carbon react = 14.4 g
Mass of oxygen = 56.5 g
Mass of oxygen left = 18.1 g
Mass of carbon dioxide produced = ?
Solution:
C + O₂ → CO₂
Number of moles of C:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 14.4 g/ 12 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.2 mol
18.1 g of oxygen left it means carbon is limiting reactant.
Now we will compare the moles of C with CO₂.
C : CO₂
1 : 1
1.2 : 1.2
Mass of CO₂:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 1.2 mol × 44 g/mol
Mass = 52.8 g
