Molecular weight of m is 40g. Hence, name of element m is Calcium. which is represented by the symbol Ca.

Given,

Moles of metal M = 0.300 moles

 weight of mF₂ formed =23.4g

we have to find the name of element m...

Now,

 m + F₂ → mF₂

1 mole of m reacts with 1 mole of F₂ (or 2 molecule of flourine) to form 1 mole of mF₂

Hence,

 0.300 moles of m reacts with 0.300 moles of F₂ to form 0.300 moles of mF₂.

 

Hence,

 23.4 g = 0.300 moles of mf2

0.300 × 38g + 0.300 × m = 23.4 g

Hence

 m = 40 g

So, molecular weight of m is 40g. Hence, name of element m is Calcium. which is represented by the symbol Ca.

 Thus, from the above conclusion we can say that, name of element m is Calcium. which is represented by the symbol Ca.

Which is a pure substance?<br> soda<br> gasoline<br> salt water<br> carbon dioxide
hram777 [196]

Answer: Carbon dioxide is a pure substance.

Explanation: A pure substance is defined when a substance has a single type of molecule. If more than 1 type of molecule is present in a substance, then it is considered as a mixture.

  • Soda is basically a mixture of water and carbon dioxide. More than 1 type of molecule is present.
  • Gasoline is a mixture of may gases. More than 1 type of molecule is present.
  • Salt water contains salt and water molecules, hence it is considered as a mixture.
  • Carbon dioxide has only 1 type of molecule which is CO_2 molecules. Hence, it is a pure substance.
