In this item, I supposed, that we are determine the molar fraction of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the sample. This can be done by dividing their respective partial pressures by the total pressure of the sample.
O2 : mole fraction = (100.7 mmHg) / (763.00 mmHg) = 0.13
CO2 : mole fraction = (33.57 mmHg) / (763.00 mmHg) = 0.044
Answers: O2 = 0.13
CO2 = 0.044
Carbon can react with oxygen to form carbon dioxide. Which of the following statements about this chemical change is true? ... Carbon and oxygen atoms are destroyed as new atoms are formed. Carbon and oxygen atoms have the same properties as molecules of carbon dioxide.
Answer:
mass of water in hydrate = 2.37 grams
Explanation:
The mass of the hydrated cobalt (III) chloride is the summation of the salt and the water it contains.
This means that:
Total mass of sample = mass of salt + mass of water
Now, we are given that:
total mass of sample = 5.22 grams
mass of salt = mass of sample after heating = 2.85 grams
Substitute to get the mass of water as follows:
5.22 = mass of water in hydrate + 2.85
mass of water in hydrate = 5.22 - 2.85
mass of water in hydrate = 2.37 grams
Hope this helps :)
