Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any or series of chemical reactions.

A compound can be broken done by chemical reactions

<h3>Element and compound</h3>

An element can be defined as species of atoms having a certain number of protons in their nuclei and pure substance of that species.  

Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by any or series of chemical reactions.

A compound can be defined as a chemical substance  that is composed of numerous identical molecules containing atoms from more than one element and held together by chemical bonds.

Answer : The volume of CO_2 will be, 514.11 ml

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

HCO_3^-+HCl\rightarrow Cl^-+H_2O+CO_2

First we have to calculate the  mass of HCO_3^- in tablet.

\text{Mass of }HCO_3^-\text{ in tablet}=32.5\% \times 3.79g=\frac{32.5}{100}\times 3.79g=1.23175g

Now we have to calculate the moles of HCO_3^-.

Molar mass of HCO_3^- = 1 + 12 + 3(16) = 61 g/mole

\text{Moles of }HCO_3^-=\frac{\text{Mass of }HCO_3^-}{\text{Molar mass of }HCO_3^-}=\frac{1.23175g}{61g/mole}=0.0202moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of CO_2.

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of HCO_3^- react to give 1 mole of CO_2

So, 0.0202 mole of HCO_3^- react to give 0.0202 mole of CO_2

The moles of CO_2 = 0.0202 mole

Now we have to calculate the volume of CO_2 by using ideal gas equation.

PV=nRT

where,

P = pressure of gas = 1.00 atm

V = volume of gas = ?

T = temperature of gas = 37^oC=273+37=310K

n = number of moles of gas = 0.0202 mole

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mole.K

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get :

(1.00atm)\times V=0.0202 mole\times (0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (310K)

V=0.51411L=514.11ml

Therefore, the volume of CO_2 will be, 514.11 ml

Part A:
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Part A = The mass of sulfur is 6.228 grams

Part B = The mass of 1 silver atom is 1.79 * 10^-22 grams

Explanation:

Part A

Step 1: Data given

A mixture of carbon and sulfur has a mass of 9.0 g

Mass of the product = 27.1 grams

X = mass carbon

Y = mass sulfur

x + y = 9.0  grams

x = 9.0 - y

x(molar mass CO2/atomic mass C) + y(molar mass SO2/atomic mass S) = 22.6

(9 - y)*(44.01/12.01) + y(64.07/32.07)

(9-y)(3.664) + y(1.998)

32.976 - 3.664y + 1.998y = 22.6

-1.666y = -10.376

y = 6.228 = mass sulfur

x = 9.0 - 6.228 = 2.772 grams = mass C

The mass of sulfur is 6.228 grams

Part B

Calculate the mass, in grams, of a single silver atom (mAg = 107.87 amu ).

Calculate moles of 1 silver atom

Moles = 1/ 6.022*10^23

Moles = 1.66*10^-24 moles

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass = 1.66*10 ^-24 moles *107.87

Mass = 1.79 * 10^-22 grams

The mass of 1 silver atom is 1.79 * 10^-22 grams
