A compound with an empirical formula of CH2O has a molar mass of 60 g/mol. What is its molecular formula?

c2h4o2

Explanation:

I am using my cell. This could take a bit

The Empical formula has a mass of

C 12

2H 2

O 16

total = 30

The molecular mass is given as 60 which is 2 times the empirical mass. Therefore multiply each element by 2 in the empirical formula.

You get C2H4O2

c is the answer because when something is left after something evaporates that shows the chemical change.

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.
