12. Determine the empirical formula of a compound containing 1.37 g of barium,
0.32 g of sulfur, and 0.64 g of oxygen.

Hot air balloons float in the air because of the difference in density between cold and hot air. in this problem, you will estimate the minimum temperature the gas inside the balloon needs to be, for it to take off. to do this, use the following variables and make these assumptions: the combined weight of the pilot basket together with that of the balloon fabric and other equipment is w. the volume of the hot air inside the balloon when it is inflated is v. the absolute temperature of the hot air at the bottom of the balloon is th (where th> tc). the absolute temperature of the cold air outside the balloon is tc and its density is ďc. the balloon is open at the bottom, so that the pressure inside and outside the balloon is the same. as always, treat air as an ideal gas. use g for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

Why is the bond angle in a water molecule less than the bond angle of methane? a. the central oxygen atom in water has two lone pairs of electrons, whereas the central carbon atom in methane has no lone pairs. b. the central hydrogen atom in water has one lone pair of electrons, whereas the central carbon atom in methane has two lone pairs. c. the central oxygen atom in water has four lone pairs of electrons, whereas the central carbon atom in methane has only one lone pair. d. the central oxygen atom exerts more repulsive force on surrounding atoms than the central carbon atom in methane does. reset next

Balance and in which category does it fit in? single or double displacement or synthesis or decomposition? (a) k2 o → k + o2 (b) na + i2 → nai (c) cu(no3 )2 + naoh → cu(oh)2 + nano3 (d) kclo3 → kcl + o2 (e) ca(no3 )2 + hbr → cabr2 + hno3 (f) sn(oh)2 → sno + h2 o (g) p4 + n2 o → p4 o6 + n2 (h) fe + al2 (so4 )3 → feso4 + al (i) alcl3 + na2 co3 → al2 (co3 )3 + nacl (j) c3 h6 + o2 → co2 + h2 o
