What is an empirical formula for a compound that is 82.2% nitrogen and 17.8% hydrogen

Chemistry

Percent to mass
Mass to mole
Divide by small
Multiply 'til whole

Assume 100 g of substance, then 82.2 g N and 17.8 g H.

82.2 g N * (1 mol/14.01 g N) = 5.86 mol N
17.8 g H * (1 mol/1.01 g H) = 17.6 mol H

Divide by the smallest mole
17.6 H / 17.6  = 1 H
5.86 N / 17.6 =  1/3 N

Multiply to make whole number ( x3 in this case)
3 x 1 H = 3H
3 x 1/3 N = 1 N

How can you tell that a white powder is salt without tasting it?
ZanzabumX [31]

You can detect salt in water without tasting by measuring the density of the water. Place a glass of spring water and a glass of the suspected salt water on a balance scale and the heavier one contains salt. Other ways to test for salt in water is to put a drop of water on the end of a nail and place in a gas flame. If the water contains salt, the flame will turn a yellow/orange color.

Calculate the molarity 20ml of 3.5 m kci in to a final volume of 100 ml​
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Molarity =  0.7 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of KCl = 20 mL ( 0.02 L)

Molarity = 3.5 M

Final volume = 100 mL (0.1 L)

Molarity in 100 mL = ?

Solution:

Molarity = number of moles of solute / volume in litter.

First of all we will determine the number of moles of KCl available.

Number of moles = molarity × volume in litter

Number of moles = 3.5 M × 0.02 L

Number of moles = 0.07 mol

Molarity in 100 mL.

Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter

Molarity =  0.07 mol /0.1 L

Molarity =  0.7 M
