Isopentyl acetate is the molecule largely responsible for the aroma and taste of bananas. It is made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of a 3.256-g sample of isopentyl acetate produces 7.706 g CO2 and 3.156 g H2O. Using these results, what is the correct empirical formula for isopentyl acetate?

Explanation:

7.706 g of CO₂ will contain 12 x 7.706 / 44 g of C

= 2.1 g of C .

This will be contained in 3.256 g of isopentyl acetate

3.156 g of H₂O will contain 2 x 3.156 / 18 g of H

= .351 g of H

This will be contained in 3.256 g of isopentyl acetate

Rest will be oxygen

amount of oxygen in 3.256 g of isopentyl acetate

= 3.256 - ( 2.1 + .351 )

= .805 g

ratio of C , H , O in isopentyl acetate

= 2.1 g : .351 g : .805 g

2.1 / 12 : .351 / 1 : 0.805 / 16 ratio of moles

= .175 : .351 : .05  ratio of moles

= 3.5 : 7.02: 1

= 7 : 14 : 2

empirical formula of  isopentyl acetate

= C₇ H₁₄ O₂ .

under a microscope, cancer cells may look very different from normal cells. they often have different sizes and some may be larger than normal while others are smaller. cancer cells are often abnormally shaped and the control centre of the cell (the nucleus) may have an abnormal appearance.

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.
