Answer:

An -ite or -ate ending means a polyatomic ion that includes oxygen is in the formula.

ate = one more O than -ite

Explanation:

Example:

NO2 is nitrite

NO3 is nitrate

You can see that the molecules are made of the same elements, however they have more or less of one of the elements (i.e. oxygen).

These suffices are used in oxygen compounds

Take example of Sulphur

  • SO_2=sulphite
  • SO_3=sulphate

ite means 2 and ate means 3

A compound has the following percentages by mass: barium, 58.8%; sulfur, 13.74%; oxygen, 27.43%. Determine the empirical formula
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

BaSO₄

Explanation:

Let's assume we have 100 g of the compound. If that's the case we would have:

  • 58.8 g of Ba
  • 13.74 g of S
  • 27.43 g of O

Now we <u>convert the masses of each element into moles</u>, using their <em>respective molar masses</em>:

  • 58.8 g Ba ÷ 137.327 g/mol = 0.428 mol Ba
  • 13.74 g S ÷ 32 g/mol = 0.429 mol S
  • 27.43 g O ÷ 16 g/mol = 1.71 mol O

We <u>divide those moles by the lowest number among them</u>:

  • 0.428 mol Ba / 0.428 = 1
  • 0.429 mol S / 0.428 ≈ 1
  • 1.71 mol O / 0.428 = 4

We can express those results as Ba₁S₁O₄, meaning the empirical formula is thus BaSO₄.

Ammonia (NH3) is widely used as a fertilizer
ratelena [41]

Answer:

82.28g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of hydrogen gas = 7.26 moles

Unknown:

Amount of ammonia produced = ?

Solution:

We have to write the balanced equation first.

              N₂    +   3H₂    →    2NH₃

Now, we work from the known to the unknown;

   

                  3 moles of H₂ will produce 2 moles of NH₃

                7.26 mole of H₂ will produce \frac{7.26 x 2}{3}  = 4.84 moles of NH₃

Molar mass of NH₃ = 14 + 3(1) = 17g/mol

Mass of NH₃  = number of moles  x molar mass = 4.84 x 17 = 82.28g

How much heat is added if 0.0318g of water is increased in temperature by 0.364 degrees C?
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

0.04838J

Explanation:

Heat is a form of energy that is transferred from one body to another as the result of a difference in temperature between the bodies , here heat is added to the water as a result of temperature change of 0.364 degreesC

Given:change in temperature=0.364

Mass of water=0.0318g

But we need specific heat capacity of water which is

4.2 J/g°C

Then we can calculate How much heat is added by using below formula

Energy = Mass * specific heat capacity *(change in temperature)

energy =0.0318g* 4.18g*0.364

=0.04838J
