Calculate the mass of aluminum in 500 g of Al(C2H3O2)3

Chemistry

Answer: 66.2 g

Explanation:

1) The ratio of Al in the molecule is  1 mol to 1 mol .

2) The mass of 1 mol of molecules of Al (CH2H3O2)3 is the molar mass of the compound.

3) You calculate the molar mass of the compound using the atomic masses of each atom, in this way:

Al: 27 g/mol
C: 2 * 3 * 12 g/mol = 72 g/mol
H: 3 * 3 * 1 g/mol = 9 g/mol
O: 2 * 3 * 16 g/mol = 96 g/mol

Molar mass = 27 g/mol + 72 g/mol + 9 g/mol + 96 g/mol = 204 g/mol

4) Set a proportion:

    27 g/mol                x
-------------------- =  ----------
   204 g/mol            500 g

5) Solve for x:

x = 500 g * 27 g/mol / 204 g/mol = 66.2 g

How does the law of conservation of mass relate to the number of atoms of each element that are present before a reaction vs. th
TiliK225 [7]
The law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as system's mass cannot change, so quantity cannot be added nor removed. Hence, the quantity of mass is conserved over time.

The law implies that mass can neither be created nor destroyed, although it may be rearranged in space, or the entities associated with it may be changed in form. For example, in chemical reactions, the mass of the chemical components before the reaction is equal to the mass of the components after the reaction. Thus, during any chemical reaction and low-energy thermodynamic processes in an isolated system, the total mass of the reactants, or starting materials, must be equal to the mass of the products.

According to the Law of Conservation, all atoms of the reactant(s) must equal the atoms of the product(s).
As a result, we need to balance chemical equations. We do this by adding in coefficients to the reactants and/or products. The compound(s) itself/themselves DOES NOT CHANGE.

A mercury lamp emits radiation with a frequency of 5.62 x1024 Hz. Calculate the wavelength of
Nitella [24]

Answer:

wavelength = 0.534×10⁻¹⁶ m

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency of wave = 5.62 ×10²⁴ Hz

Wavelength = ?

Solution:

Speed of photon = wavelength × frequency

wavelength = speed of photon / frequency

Now we will put the values in formula:

wavelength = 3×10⁸ m/s / 5.62 ×10²⁴ Hz

Hz = s⁻¹

wavelength = 3×10⁸ m/s / 5.62 ×10²⁴ s⁻¹

wavelength = 0.534×10⁻¹⁶ m

What are facts or characteristics about acid?
noname [10]
Acids are ionic compounds (a compound with a positive or negative charge) that break apart in water to form hydrogen ion (H+). Characteristics of acid: Acid taste sour. Acids also react strongly to metals, generally with the evolution of hydrogen gas (Eg: Zn + HCI). Also strong acids are dangerous and can burn your skin off. Acids change litmus red. Acids become less acidic when mixed with bases. An acid has Ph scale of under 7.
