The 85.2-g sample of the compound x4o10 contains 48.0 g of oxygen atoms. what is the molar mass of element x?

1 answer:

5 0

X4O10
Let molar mass of X be y
molar mass = 4y + 10 x 16 = 4y+160

so, moles = 85.2 / (4y+160)

Moles of oxygen = 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]
Mass of oxygen = 16 x 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]
which is 48.0

so, 48 = 16 x 10 x [85.2 / (4y+160) ]

Solve the equation to get y.

y = 31

ANALYZE A ball of clay is manipulated into different shapes in each of the images

alekssr [168]

Answer:

The amount of mass and matter in all the transformations of the clay ball will remain the same or constant

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of mass we have, for an enclosed system to and from which there is no transfer of matter or energy, mass cannot be created nor destroyed, and remains constant at the given value, but the matter which make up the mass can be changed into different forms

Therefore, the clay ball can be transformed into different shapes and will still posses the same initial mass before the transformation, provided there are no transfer of matter or energy from the clay ball system.

One of the emission lines that provides the green color in fireworks, which com s from barium salts, has a wavelength of 505nm.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Explanation:

(a)

The relation between frequency and wavelength is shown below as:

$c=frequency\times Wavelength
$

c is the speed of light having value $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

Given, Wavelength = 505 nm

Also, 1 m = $10^{-9}$ nm

So,

Wavelength = $505\times 10^{-9}$ m

Thus, Frequency is:

$Frequency=\frac{c}{Wavelength}$

$Frequency=\frac{3\times 10^8}{505\times 10^{-9}}\ Hz$

$Frequency=5.94\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

(b)

Also, $E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}$

Where,

h is Plank's constant having value $6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js$

c is the speed of light having value $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

So,

$E=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{505\times 10^{-9}}\ J$

$E=\frac{10^{-26}\times \:19.878}{10^{-9}\times \:505}\ J$

$E=3.94\times 10^{-19}\ J$

(c)

Electromagnetic spectrum is range of the frequencies and their respective wavelengths of the various type of the electromagnetic radiation.

In order of the increasing frequency and the photon energy and the decreasing wavelength the spectrum are:

Red , Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet

Increasing wavelength is the opposite trend. Thus, The longest visible wavelength is red and the shortest is violet.

Which of the following takes place during a redox reaction? A. Electrons are gained only. B. Electrons are lost only. C. Electro

zhannawk [14.2K]

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. Electrons are both gained and <span>lost during a redox reaction. From the name itself "redox" or reduction-oxidation, it must be that something has reduced and another has gained that something.</span>
