Answer: Scientists are working on nuclear fusion process. Nuclear fusion is the process in which two atomic nuclei combine to form another nuclei. In the process either energy is absorbed or released due to the difference in the mass of reactants and products.
Explanation:
You need to find moles of the gas, so you would use the ideal gas law:
PV=nRT
Pressure
Volume
n=moles
R= gas constant
Tenperature in Kelvin
n= PV/RT
(1.00atm)(1.35L)/(.08206)(332K) = 0.050mol
Molar mass is grams per mole, so
(3.75g/.050mol) = 75g/mol
To find this, we will use this formula:
Molar mass of element
------------------------------------ x 100
Molar mass of compound
So, first lets calculate the mass of the compound as a whole. We use the atomic masses on the periodic table to determine this.
Ca: 40.078 g/mol
N2 (there is two nitrogens): 28.014 g/mol
O6 (there are six nitrogens: 3 times 2): 95.994 g/mol
When we add all of those numbers up together, we get 164.086. That is the molar mass for the whole compound. However, we are trying to figure out what percent of the compound oxygen makes up. From the molar mass, we know that 95.994 of the 164.086 is oxygen. Lets plug those numbers into our equation!
95.994
-----------
164.086
When we divide those two numbers, we get .585. When we multiply that by 100, we get 58.5.
So, the percent compostition of oxygen in Ca(NO3)2, or, calcium nitrate, is 58.5%.
Reduction is the process by which eletrons are gained by an atom.
