Find the percent composition of C7H5N3O6
Oksana_A [137]

Finding percent composition is fairly easy. You only need to divide the mass of an element by the total mass of the compound. We can do this one element at a time.

First, let's find the total mass by using the masses of the elements given on the periodic table.

7 x 12.011 (mass of Carbon) = 84.077

5 x 1.008 (mass of Hydrogen) = 5.04

3 x 14.007 (mass of Nitrogen) = 42.021

6 x 15.999 (mass of Oxygen) = 95.994

Add all of those pieces together.

84.077 + 5.04 + 42.021 + 95.994 = 227.132 g/mol is your total. Since we also just found the mass of each individual element, the next step will be very easy.

Carbon: 84.077 / 227.132 = 0.37016 ≈ 37.01 %

Hydrogen: 5.04 / 227.132 = 0.022189 ≈ 2.22 %

Nitrogen: 42.021 / 227.132 = 0.185 ≈ 18.5 %

Oxygen: 95.994 / 227.132 = 0.42263 ≈ 42.26 %

You can check your work by making sure they add up to 100%. The ones I just found add up to 99.99, which is close enough. A small difference (no more than 0.03 in my experience) is just a matter of where you rounded your numbers.

notsponge [240]
Kc= concentration  of  product  divided  by  concentration   of  reactant
NO +  NO2  ---->  N2O3

Kc =(N2O3)  /  (No)(NO2)

Kc= ( 1.3  )/{ (3.9)(3.8) }

1. The emission spectrum of mercury atoms has a bright green line with wavelength
SashulF [63]

Emission spectrum results from the movement of an electron from a higher to a lower energy level. The frequency of the photon is 5.5 * 10^14 Hz.

From the formula;

E = hc/λ

h = Plank's constant =6.6 * 10^-34 Js

c = speed of light=  3 * 10^8

λ = wavelength = 546.1 * 10^-9 m

E =  6.6 * 10^-34 * 3 * 10^8/546.1 * 10^-9

E =3.63 * 10^-19 J

Also;

E =hf

Where;

h = Planks's constant

f = frequency of photon

f = E/h

f = 3.63 * 10^-19 J/6.6 * 10^-34

f = 5.5 * 10^14 Hz

Which of the following is an example of a Lewis acid?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

C. BF3

Explanation:

The boron in BF3 is electron poor and has an empty orbital, so it can accept a pair of electrons, making it a Lewis acid.
