A public school district furnishes pencils to its elementary students. The pencils the secretary orders from the district wareho

use each year are packaged in boxes that contain one gross (12 dozen=1 gross) pencils. The average use of pencils is 9.3 pencils per student over the school year. If the school’s enrollment is 812 students, what is minimum number of boxes of pencils that should be ordered? Use dimensional analysis.

Minimum number of boxes order is 52.4 boxes.

<u>Given that;</u>

Average use of pencil per student = 9.3 pencil per year

Number of student in school = 812 students

<u>Find:</u>

Minimum number of boxes order

<u />

<u>Computation:</u>

Total number of pencil used in year = 812 × 9.3

Total number of pencil used in year = 7,551.6 pencils

12 <u>dozen</u> = 1 <u>gross</u>

So,

Number of pencils in 1 box = 12 × 12

Number of pencils in 1 box = 144 pencils

Minimum number of boxes order = 7551.6 / 144

Minimum number of boxes order = 52.4 boxes

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the chemical equation, if we determine the moles of sodium carbonate, we can find the moles of NaHCO₃ that reacted and its mass, thus:

<em>Moles Na₂CO₃ - 105.99g/mol-:</em>

6.35g * (1mol / 105.99g) = 0.0599 moles of Na₂CO₃ are produced.

As 1 mole of sodium carbonate is produced when 2 moles of NaHCO₃ reacted, moles of NaHCO₃ that reacted are:

0.0599 moles of Na₂CO₃ * (2 moles NaHCO₃ / 1 mole Na₂CO₃) = 0.1198 moles of NaHCO₃

And the mass of NaHCO₃ in the sample (Molar mass: 84g/mol):

0.1198 moles of NaHCO₃ * (84g / mol) = 10.06g of NaHCO₃ were in the original sample.

And percent of NaHCO₃ in the sample is:

10.06g NaHCO₃ / 15g Sample * 100 =

Caffeine has the molecular formula, C8H10N4O2. What is the percent composition of caffeine?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

b) 49.48% C, 5.19% H, 28.85% N, and 16.48% O

Explanation:

we find the mass for each element in one mole by multiplying the number of atoms in one molecule with the atomic mass

mC=8Ac=8*12=96g

mH=10AH=10*1=10g

mN=4AN=4*14=56g

mO=2AO=2*16=32g

by adding the masses together we find the molar mass of the molecule

M=mC+nH+mN+mO=96+10+56+32=194g/mole

we apply the rule of threes to find the percentage of each element

194g..96gC..10gH...56gN....32gO

100g....a...........b...........c.............d

a=(100*96)/194=49.48%C

b=(100*10)/194=5.19%H

c=(100*56)/194=28.85%N

d=(100*32)/194=16.48%O

A 0.4272 g sample of an element contains 2.241 x 10 ^21 atoms . what is the symbol of the element?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Likely \rm In (indium.)

Explanation:

Number of atoms: N = 2.241 \times 10^{21}.

Dividing, N, the number of atoms by the Avogadro constant, N_A \approx 6.023 \times 10^{23} \; \rm mol^{-1}, would give the number of moles of atoms in this sample:

\begin{aligned} n &= \frac{N}{N_{A}} \\ &\approx \frac{2.241 \times 10^{21}}{6.023 \times 10^{23}\; \rm mol^{-1}} \approx 3.72 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol \end{aligned}.

The mass of that many atom is m = 0.4272\; \rm g. Estimate the average mass of one mole of atoms in this sample:

\begin{aligned}M &= \frac{m}{n} \\ &\approx \frac{0.4272\; \rm g}{3.72 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm mol} \approx 114.82\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

The average mass of one mole of atoms of an element (114.82\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} in this example) is numerically equal to the average atomic mass of that element. Refer to a modern periodic table and look for the element with average atomic mass 114.82. Indium, \rm In, is the closest match.

If an object with a volume of 105 mL and a density of 0.801 g/mL, what is the objects mass?
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The objects mass is 84, 105 g. See the explanation below, please.

Explanation:

We use the formula:

Density= mass/volume

Mass= Density x volume =0.801 g/mL x 105 mL = 84, 105 g
