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

Chemistry

photoshop1234 [79]1 year ago
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 %.

Which of the following has a melting point greater than room temperature?
nikdorinn [45]
Technically, the answer is iron. Oxygen has a melting point way below zero (-219 degrees celsius), ice becomes water AT room temperature and bromine is already a liquid at room temperature. So, iron has a melting point greater than room temperature due to the fact that metals are made up of giant structures of atoms in a regular arrangement, and there are strong forces of electrostatic attraction between positive metal ions and negative electrons, meaning that a lot of heat energy is required to break the bonds, i.e. a very high melting point, approx. 1500 degrees celsius. Hope this helps.
