It is usually measured, with an instrument such as an Evan's balance.
The molecular formula is established only after an accurate chemical analysis of the compound.
You can find out the elements in it, and the number of each ions of each element. Example : Na2SO4 (Sodium Sulfate) You can find out from this formula that this compound contains : 2 Sodium ions (Na2) 1 Sulfide ion (S) 4 Oxide ion (O4)
A molecular formula indicates the number and kinds of atoms in a molecule of the substance. For example, the molecular formula for water, H2O, indicates that each molecule of water contains two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
the big number out the front of the formula tells you how many molecules/moles/the amount of the overall molecule. the subscript (smaller) numbers after each letter say how many atoms of that element represented by the letter there are in ONE molecule of the compound.
Methane is a hydrocarbon gas . It is the simpolest of the Alkane functional group.. It has the formula 'CH4'. It is NOT an element , but a compound of carbon anf hydrogen. Eacg hydrogen is covalently bonded to the carbon . It is a flammable gas , and will readily combust in air to form water and carbon dioxide,.
When viewing websites such as Wikipedia that is known as The Free Encyclopedia on the internet, it states that the chemical compound of Glucose is sugar.
Only after a serious analysis (chemical and physical) of the powder.
Because an alloy is not a chemical compound. A chemical compound has a fixed composition; an alloy is variable.
The molecular formula is established only after an accurate chemical analysis of the compound.
To find this you also need to know the chemical (or formula) weight of one mole of the compound in grams per mole (so about which compound you're talking about).
If you break down the chemical by it's elements and apply some simple rules, you can find the formula for a chemical compound.
Zinc forms a compound with sulphur. it gives zinc sulphide, known as the mineral zinc blende or sphalerite. Hope I helped:) ^_^
dob't know when i do i will post which is probally going to take quite a while
Forensics. QA is used to find what sort of chemical or compound is present in an unknown substance.
It is a chemical compound named disulphur dinitride. You can find more about it in this Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disulfur_dinitride
You can find out the elements in it, and the number of each ions of each element. Example : Na2SO4 (Sodium Sulfate) You can find out from this formula that this compound contains : 2 Sodium ions (Na2) 1 Sulfide ion (S) 4 Oxide ion (O4)
Without the full quantum mechanical treatment let's look at an atom. In all atoms, the electrons are in motion, and are creating magnetic fields around their paths of travel. And each electron is in a specific orbital (Fermi energy level) and will have an associated angular momentum unique to that specific orbital. To discover the atomic (magnetic) dipole moment, we have to gather up and add the spins of each of the electrons, and also find and sum each orbital angular momentum where an electron is operating. With the spins of the electrons and the angular momenta of the orbitals, we can then combine those to discover the total angular momentum. From there, it's a hop, skip and a jump to find the magnitude of the atom's dipole moment. In a molecule, we have to do this for multiple atoms. Additionally we have to make accommodations for the magnetic moments of any unpaired electrons. We must also account for nuclear spin configuration and the energy state of the molecule to arrive at the magnitude of the magnetic moment. We might have to consider nuclear magnetism in the isotopes of some elements, but these are the basic variables that must be managed to find the magnitude of the magnetic moment of a molecule.
