0.986 moles of CaO are formed when  98.60 g of CaCO_3decomposes.

<h3>What are moles?</h3>

A mole is defined as 6.02214076 ×10^{23} of some chemical unit, be it atoms, molecules, ions, or others.

Number of moles of CaCO3 =\frac{mass}{molar \;mass}

Number of moles of CaCO3 = \frac{98.60 g}{100 g/mol}

= 0.986 moles

Reaction:

CaCO_3   →  CaO + CO_2

Since the reaction is 1:1:1.

So 0.986 moles of CaO are formed.

If the freezing point of the solution had been incorrectly read 0.3 °C lower than the true freezing point, would the calculated
Dovator [93]

Answer : The molar mass of the solute would be low.

Explanation :

Formula used for depression in freezing point is:  

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m\\\\T^o-T_s=i\times K_f\times\frac{w_b}{M_b}\times w_a}

where,

\Delta T_f = change in freezing point

\Delta T_s = freezing point of solution

\Delta T^o = freezing point of water

i = Van't Hoff factor

K_f = freezing point constant

m = molality

w_b = mass of solute

w_a = mass of solvent

M_b = molar mass of solute

From the formula we conclude that, when the freezing point of the solution read incorrectly that is freezing point of the solution is lower than the true freezing point then this means that change in freezing point would be high and the molar mass of the solute would be low.

Hence, the molar mass of the solute would be low.

What is the density of 0.50 grams of gaseous carbon stored under 1.5 atm of pressure at a temperature of -20.0 C?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer: The density of 0.50 grams of gaseous carbon stored under 1.50 atm of pressure at a temperature of -20.0 °C is 0.867 g/L.

Explanation:

  • d = m/V, where d is the density, m is the mass and V is the volume.
  • We have the mass m = 0.50 g, so we must get the volume V.
  • To get the volume of a gas, we apply the general gas law PV = nRT

P is the pressure in atm (P = 1.5 atm)

V is the volume in L (V = ??? L)

n is the number of moles in mole, n = m/Atomic mass, n = 0.50/12.0 = 0.416 mole.

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K).

T is the temperature in K (T(K) = T(°C) + 273 = -20.0 + 273 = 253 K).

  • Then, V = nRT/P = (0.416 mol)(0.082 L.atm/mol.K)(253 K) / (1.5 atm) = 0.576 L.
  • Now, we can obtain the density; d = m/V = (0.50 g) / (0.576 L) = 0.867 g/L.

Calculate the molar mass of iron(III) sulfide. Round your answer to the nearest 0.1 and include units to receive credit.
Igoryamba

Answer:

207.89g

Explanation:

The formula of the compound is:

        Fe₂S₃  

Find the molar mass of the compound;

  Atomic mass of Fe  = 55.845g/mol

                              S  = 32.065g/mol

Now;

  Molar mass of  Fe₂S₃   = 2 (55.845) + 3 (32.065)

                                         = 207.89g
