The masses of the components are obtained as;

  • Sodium hydrogen carbonate = 3.51 g
  • Sodium carbonate =  8.708 g
<h3>What is decomposition?</h3>

The term decomposition has to do with the breakdown of the given substance into its components. The components of sodium hydrogen carbonate could be identified as water vapor, carbon dioxide gas and sodium carbonate. Among these products that have been listed here, we can see that it is only the sodium carbonate that remains as a solid. The others are gases that move away from the system that is under study.

Now putting down the equation of the reaction, we have;

2NaHCO_{3} (s) ----- > Na_{2} CO_{3} (s) + CO_{2} (g) + H_{2} O(g)

Now, the loss in  mass must be due to the carbon dioxide and the water. Hence we obtain the loss in mass to be 10.000 g -  8.708 g = 1.292 g

Mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate = 2 * 88 g/mol * 1.292 g/62 g/mol

= 3.51 g

Analysis of an ore of calcium shows that it contains 13.61 g calcium and 21.77 g oxygen in a 46.28-g sample. Calculate the perce
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

29.41% of Calcium and 47.04% of Oxygen

Explanation:

The percent composition of an atom in a molecule is defined as 100 times the ratio between the mass of the atom and the mass of the molecule.

The mass of the molecule of the problem (Ore) is 46.28g. That means the percent composition of Calcium is:

13.61g / 46.28g * 100 = 29.41% of Calcium

And percent composition of Oxygen is:

21.77g / 46.28g * 100 = 47.04% of Oxygen

Calculate the number of grams of oxygen required to convert 48.0 g of glucose to co2 and h2o.
worty [1.4K]

I believe that the balanced chemical reaction is:

C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O 

 

So the number of grams of oxygen required is:

mass O2 required = 48 g C6H12O6 * (1 mole C6H12O6 / 180.16 g) * (6 mole O2 / 1 mole C6H12O6) * (32 grams O2 / 1 mole)

<span>mass O2 required = 51.15 grams</span>
