chemical formula of a compound will be determined using the mass of each individual element that is present in a weighed sample of that compound. The chemical formula shows the proportions of elements in a specific compound. This proportion is uniform to all samples of the same compound. Using the mass of each element, the moles of the element in the compound can be found and then compared to that of the other elements. This will create our atom ratio which will lead to our mole ratio. The mole…

As a part of the…

And it is the goal of this generalized introvert to acquire that voice, to speak freely alongside their peers, and become normal in the eyes of their perceived society. For me and in my pursuit of voice and…
