Determine whether or not each chemical formula is an empirical formula. CaCO3 Choose... C6H12O6 Choose... NaMnO4 Choose... Ba3(PO4)2 Choose... K2C2O4 Choose...

CaCO3: empirical.

C6H12O6: not empirical.

NaMnO4: empirical.

Ba3(PO4)2: empirical.

K2C2O4: not empirical.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the empirical formula of a chemical compound is the smallest whole number ratio of atoms of each element in the compound, for each compound we proceed as follows:

CaCO3: it is empirical since the subscripts there cannot be reduced anymore.

C6H12O6: not empirical since the smallest whole number ratio of atoms would be CH2O.

NaMnO4: it is empirical since the subscripts there cannot be reduced anymore.

Ba3(PO4)2: it is empirical since the subscripts there cannot be reduced anymore.

K2C2O4: not empirical since the smallest whole number ratio of atoms would be KCO2.

Best regards.

explanation:

when it goes from cloud to rain/back to earth in the form of rain

water   molecules stay close to each other through cohesion, the collective action of hydrogen bonds between water molecules. cohesion plants draw water upwards from the root through the stem's transport tubes (xylem) to the leaf. this transport occurs even in large trees and against gravity. transpiration, evaporation of water from plant leaves, creates a tension on water molecules being pulled up from the stem and roots.

water also has high (the attraction of one substance to another) properties because of its polar nature. adhesion of water molecules to plant cell walls counteract gravity while water is transported from roots to leaves.

water exhibits a very high surface tension when compared to other liquids. surface tension is a property of a liquid that holds the surface together and allows it to resist an external force. by capillary action, the water forms concave menisci inside the pores. the high surface tension of water pulls the concavity outwards, generating enough force to lift water from the roots to the leaves of plants.

thus, cohesion, along with adhesion and surface tension creates a capillary action that keeps water molecules interacting and moving through the plants out to the leaf cells.

therefore, option d) is the correct answer.
