Pheromones are a special type of compound secreted by the females of many insect species to attract males for mating. One pheromone has the molecular formula C19H38O. normally, the amount of this pheromone secreted by a female insect is about 1.3 x 10-12 g. How many molecules does this quantity contain? 28 x 10^5 molecules C19H380 O2.8 x 10^9 molecules C19H380 28 x 10^9 molecules C19H380 0.0028 x 10^9 molecules C19H380

A sample of bismuth weighing 0.687 g was converted to bismuth chloride by reacting it first with HNO3, and then with HCI, followed by careful evaporation to dryness. The mass of the bismuth chloride obtained was 1.032 g. What is the empirical formula of bismuth chloride? You won't be able to make the numbers a subscript. For instance, for MgCl2 enter MgCl2.
A student performed a similar experiment to the one you performed: They took a crucible and lid, cleaned them, heated them over a flame, and after cooling found their combined mass to be 22.538 g. The student then added a sample of zinc(II) sulfate hydrate (ZnSO4·“n”H2O) to the crucible so the combined mass of the sample, crucible, and lid was 25.896 g. They heated this sample for 10 minutes with the lid ajar, let it cool, and measured the mass of the crucible, sample, and lid to be 25.054 g. a. Based on this experiment, what is the formula for they hydrated zinc(II) sulfate compound? b. The student later looked on the reagent bottle for zinc(II) sulfate hydrate and found the actual formula was ZnSO4·7H2O. If everything had been done correctly, what value should the student have expected for the final mass of their sample, crucible, and lid after heating?
