Valproic acid, used to treat seizures and bipolar disorder, is composed of c, h, and o. a 0.165-g sample is combusted in a combustion apparatus. the gain in mass of the h2o absorber is 0.166 g, whereas that of the co2 absorber is 0.403 g. what empirical formula for valproic acid do these results indicate?

Astudent pours 10.0 g of salt into a container of water and observes the amount of time it takes for the salt to dissolve. she then repeats the process using the same amounts of salt and water but this time she slowly stirs the mixture while it is dissolving. the student performs the experiment one more time but this time she stirs the mixture rapidly. the dependent variable in this experiment is: time for salt to dissolve speed of stirring amount of water mass of salt
