The mass of sulfur in a sample of CaSO4 with a mass of 65.8 g is 15.50g.

<h3>How to calculate mass of an element in a compound?</h3>

According to this question, a 10.4 g sample of CaSO4 is found to contain 3.06 g of Ca and 4.89 g of O.

This means that the mass of sulfur in the 10.4g of CaSO4 is 10.4g - (3.06g + 4.89g) = 10.4g - 7.95g = 2.45g

Next, we calculate the percent ratio of each element in the compound; CaSO4.

  • Ca = 3.06g/10.4g × 100 = 29.42%
  • S = 2.45g/10.4g × 100 = 23.56%
  • O = 4.89g/10.4g × 100 = 47.02%

According to this question, a sample of CaSO4 with a mass of 65.8 g is given. The mass of each element in this compound is as follows:

  • Ca = 29.42/100 × 65.8g = 19.36g
  • S = 23.56/100 × 65.8g = 15.50g
  • O = 47.02/100 × 65.8g = 30.94g

Therefore, the mass of sulfur in a sample of CaSO4 with a mass of 65.8 g is 15.50g.

3) Which pair of formulas represents the empirical formula and molecular
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is maybe letter D, but the last oxygen needs a number 6.

Explanation:

The empirical formula gives the actual elements that form part of a molecule but not the total numbers.

The molecular formula gives the total number of atoms of each element in a molecule.

We must factor the molecular formula to know if a formula is the empirical formula of that.

A.        CH₄    C₂H₆  =  2(CH₃)       these are not empirical molecular formulas

B.        CH₂O  C₄H₆O                     these are not empirical-molecular formulas      

C.        O₂        O₃                           these are not empirical-molecular formulas

D.        C₃H₄O₃   C₆H₈O                 these are not empirical-molecular formulas

                                                       the last oxygen needs a number 6 to be

                                                       the answer.

Why are fibers birefringent
horrorfan [7]

Inevitable manufacturing imperfections in optical fiber leads to birefringence, which is one cause of pulse broadening in fiber-optic communications. Such imperfections can be geometrical (lack of circular symmetry), due to stress applied to the optical fiber and/or due to bending of the fiber.

Select the following statements that are true. Select all that apply.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The statements which are true among these are: (a),(b) and (c) because,

(a) The simplest organic compounds which contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms are called hydrocarbons.

(b) The IUPAC naming of organic compounds have some rules for the naming of compounds, which consists of

  • Finding the longest chain present in the compound called parent chain.
  • A prefix for any substituent attach to the parent chain.

And lastly a suffix for the type of bond that molecule have.

(c) Isomers are the compound which same same molecular formula but different arrangement of molecules, due to this different arrangement they have different physical and chemical properties.
