You have to find the number of moles of water and calcium sulfate.  
to find the mass of water you subtract 3.87 by 4.89 to get 1.02g water and we are given taht the mass of calcium sulfate is 3.87g
then find the moles of water and calcium sulfate in the sample
1.02/18=0.05667mol water
3.87/136.2=0.0284 mol water
now you have to find how many moles there are per one mole of calcium sufate.
0.05667/0.0284=1.994 which can be rounded to 2 mol water for ever 1 mol calcium sulfate
therefore the formula for this CaSO₄·2H₂O and is called calcium sulfate dihydrate.

I hope this helps

A mixture of methane and air is capable of being ignited only if the mole percent of methane is between 5% and 15%. A mixture co
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The air 9% mole% methane have an average molecular weight of:

9%×16,04g/mol + 91%×29g/mol = 27,8g/mol

And a flow of 700000g/h÷27,8g/mol = 25180 mol/h

In the reactor where methane solution and air are mixed:

In = Out

Air balance:

91% air×25180 mol/h + 100% air×X = 95%air×(X+25180)

Where X is the flow rate of air in mol/h = <em>20144 mol air/h</em>

<em></em>

The air in the product gas is

95%×(20144 + 25180) mol/h = 43058 mol air× 21%O₂ = 9042 mol O₂ ×32g/mol = <em>289 kg O₂</em>

43058 mol air×29g/mol <em>1249 kg air</em>

Percent of oxygen is: \frac{289kg}{1249 kg} =<em>0,231 kg O₂/ kg air</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

What is the percent composition of carbon in heptane c7h16
Gnom [1K]

Answer: the percent composition of carbon in heptane is 83.9%

Explanation:

<u>1) Atomic masses of the atoms:</u>

  • C: 12.01 g/mol
  • H: 1.008 g/mol

<u>2) Molar mass of heptane:</u>

  • C₇H₁₆: 7 × 12.01 g/mol + 16×1.008 g/mol = 100.2 g/mol

<u>3) Mass of carbon in one mole of heptane:</u>

  • C₇: 7 × 12.01 g/mol = 84.07 g/mol

<u>3) Percent composition of carbon:</u>

  • % = (mass in grams of C) / (mass in grams of C₇H₁₆) × 100 =

           = (84.07 g/ 100.2 g) × 100 = 83.9% ← answer
