What is the % composition of Carbon in Chromium (iii) Carbonate

Chemistry

8 0

Step 1 - Discovering the ionic formula of Chromium (III) Carbonate

Chromium (III) Carbonate is formed by the ionic bonding between Chromium (III) (Cr(3+)) and Carbonate (CO3(2-)):

Cr^{3+}+CO^{2-}_3\rightarrow Cr_2(CO_3)_3

Step 2 - Finding the molar mass of the substance

To find the molar mass, we need to multiply the molar mass of each element by the number of times it appears in the formula of the substance and, finally, sum it all up.

The molar masses are 12 g/mol for C; 16 g/mol for O and 52 g/mol for Cr. We have thus:

\begin{gathered} C\rightarrow3\times12=36 \\  \\ O\rightarrow9\times16=144 \\  \\ Cr\rightarrow2\times52=104 \end{gathered}

The molar mass will be thus:

M=36+104+144=284\text{ g/mol}

Step 3 - Finding the percent composition of carbon

As we saw in the previous step, the molar mass of Cr2(CO3)3 is 284 g/mol. From this molar mass, 36 g/mol come from C. We can set the following proportion:

\begin{gathered} 284\text{ g/mol ---- 100\%} \\ 36\text{ g/mol ----- x} \\  \\ x=\frac{36\times100}{284}=\frac{3600}{284}=12.7\text{ \%} \end{gathered}

The percent composition of Carbon is thus 12.7 %.

maks197457 [2]
Density = mass / volume

D = 1 x 10⁴ / 2

D = 5000 kg/m³ in g/cm³:

1 kg/m³ ---------------- 0.001 g/cm³
5000 kg/m³ ----------- ??

5000 x 0.001 / 1 =>  5.0 g/cm³
