Answer: \text{N}_{5}\text{O}_{10}

Explanation:

  • The atomic mass of nitrogen is 14.0067 g/mol.
  • The atomic mass of oxygen is 15.9994 g/mol.

This means the molecular mass of nitrogen dioxide is 14.0067+2(15.9994)=46.0055 g/mol.

Dividing this molecular mass of the compound we need to find, we get that

\frac{230.05}{46.0055} \approx 5.

So, the final answer is \boxed{\text{N}_{5}\text{O}_{10}}

Which of the following items is a salt? (1 point)
Tems11 [23]

  • Calcium carbonate is the  salt  among the given options.

  • Calcium carbonate ( CaCO3) can be regarded as  which appears as white and odorless powder or  as a colorless crystals it is  insoluble in water.

  • The chemical  formula is CaCO3. It can be used as an antacid as well as food colouring and a  food firming agent and a fertilizer.

  • Calcium carbonate is calcium salt as well as carbonate salt with one-carbon compound

  • Salt can be regarded as substance which is  produced by reaction between acid and  base. It  consists negative ion (anion) of that acid as well as positive ion (cation) of the base.

  • Sodium hydroxide is a base and not a salt

  • Carbonic acid is an acid and not a salt

  • Therefore, calcium carbonate is the only salt in the among the given options.

After completing an experiment to determine gravimetrically the percentage of water in a hydrate, a student reported a value of
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

b) The dehydrated sample absorbed moisture after heating

Explanation:

a) Strong initial heating caused some of the hydrate sample to splatter out.

This will result in a higher percent of water than the real one, because you assume in the calculation that the splattered sample was only water (which in not true).

b) The dehydrated sample absorbed moisture after heating.

Usually inorganic salts may absorbed moisture from the atmosphere so this will explain the 13% difference between calculated water percent the real content of water in the hydrate.

c) The amount of the hydrate sample used was too small.

It will create some errors but they do not create a difference of 13% difference as stated in the problem.

d) The crucible was not heated to constant mass before use.

Here the error is small.

e) Excess heating caused the dehydrated sample to decompose.

Usually the inorganic compounds are stable in the temperature range of this kind of experiments. If you have an organic compound which retain water molecules you may decompose the sample forming volatile compounds which will leave crucible so the error will be quite high.

If 2.00 moles of H₂ and 1.55 moles of O₂ react how many moles of H₂O can be produced in the reaction below?
jekas [21]

Answer:

2 mol H₂O

Explanation:

With the reaction,

  • 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 H₂O(g)

1.55 moles of O₂ would react completely with ( 2*1.55 ) 3.1 moles of H₂. There are not as many moles of H₂, thus H₂ is the limiting reactant.

Now we <u>calculate the moles of H₂O produced</u>, <em>starting from the moles of limiting reactant</em>:

  • 2.00 mol H₂  * \frac{2molH_2O}{2mol H_2} = 2 mol H₂O

What impact does bleached coral have on the ecosystem in which it lives?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Bleached corals are likely to have reduced growth rates, decreased reproductive capacity, increased susceptibility to diseases and elevated mortality rates. Changes in coral community composition can occur when more susceptible species are killed by bleaching events.
