D water expands when it freezes
<h2>
Hello!</h2>
The answer is:
The empirical formula is the option B.
<h2>
Why?</h2>
The empirical formula of a compound is the simplest formula that can be written. On the opposite, the molecular formula involves a variant of the same compound, but it can be also simplified to an empirical formula.
We are looking for a formula that cannot be simplified by dividing the number of molecules/atoms that conforms the compound.
Let's discard option by option in order to find which formula is an empirical formula (cannot be simplified)
A.
It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.
B.
It's an empirical formula since it cannot be obtained by the multiplication of a whole number and the simplest formula. It's the simplest formula that we can find of the compound.
C.
It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.
D.
It's not an empirical formula, it's a molecular formula since it can be obtained by multiplying the empirical formula of the same compound.
Hence, the empirical formula is the option B.
Have a nice day!
1 mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 1023 particles.
⚛ 6.022 × 1023 is known as the Avogadro Number or Avogadro Constant and is given the symbol NA
N = n × NA
· N = number of particles in the substance
· n = amount of substance in moles (mol)
· NA = Avogardro Number = 6.022 × 10^23 particles mol-1
For H2O we have:
2 H at 1.0 each = 2.0 amu
1 O at 16.0 each = 16.0 amu
Total for H2O = 18.0 amu, or grams/mole
It takes 18 grams of H2O to obtain 1 mole, or 6.02 x 1023 molecules of water. Think about that before we answer the question. We have 25.0 grams of water, so we have more than one mole of water molecules. To find the exact number, divide the available mass (25.0g) by the molar mass (18.0g/mole). Watch how the units work out. The grams cancel and moles moves to the top, leaving moles of water. [g/(g/mole) = moles].
Here we have 25.0 g/(18.0g/mole) = 1.39 moles water (3 sig figs).
Multiply 1.39 moles times the definition of a mole to arrive at the actual number of water molecules:
1.39 (moles water) * 6.02 x 1023 molecules water/(mole water) = 8.36 x 1023 molecules water.
That's slightly above Avogadro's number, which is what we expected. Keeping the units in the calculations is annoying, I know, but it helps guide the operations and if you wind up with the unit desired, there is a good chance you've done the problem correctly.
N = n × (6.022 × 10^23)
1 grams H2O is equal to 0.055508435061792 mol.
Then 23 g of H2O is 1.2767 mol
To calculate the number of particles, N, in a substance:
N = n × NA
N = 1.2767 × (6.022 × 10^23)
N= 176.26
N=
Answer: Democritus atomic theory is the ancient theory that describes the nature of matter in terms of atoms whereas Dalton atomic theory is a modern scientific theory that describes the nature of matter in terms of atoms. According to Dalton's theory, atoms are identically same, but Democritus had no idea about it. Atoms are never created nor destroyed, they just rearrange.
