Answer:

The formula of the compound is:

N2H2

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question:

Nitrogen (N) = 93.28%

Hydrogen (H) = 6.72%

Next, we shall determine the empirical formula for the unknown compound. This is illustrated below:

N = 93.28%

H = 6.72%

Divide by their molar mass

N = 93.28 /14 = 6.663

H = 6.72 /1 = 6.7

Divide by the smallest

N = 6.663 / 6.663 = 1

H = 6.72 /6.663 = 1

Therefore, the empirical formula is NH.

Now, we can obtain the formula of the compound as follow:

The formula of a compound is simply a multiple of the empirical formula.

[NH]n = 30.04

[14 + 1]n = 30.04

15n = 30.04

Divide both side by 15

n = 30.04/15

n = 2

Therefore, the formula of the compound is:

[NH]n => [NH]2 => N2H2

A package contains 1.33 lb of ground round. If it contains 29% fat, how many grams of fat are in the ground round? The book is s
Effectus [21]

Answer:

To obtain the grams of fat that the ground round has, knowing that it weighs 1.33 pounds we must pass this value to grams. Since 1 pound equals 453.59 grams, 1.33 pounds equals 603.27 (453.59 x 1.33).

Now, to obtain 29 percent of 603.27, we must make the following calculation: 603.27 / 100 x 29, which gives a total of 174.94 grams.

In this way, your reasoning is correct and it is probably a mistake in the book.

What is the normal pH range of a Base?
Karolina [17]

Answer:

7.35 - 7.45

Explanation:

The pH scale ranges from 0 (strongly acidic) to 14 (strongly basic or alkaline). A pH of 7.0, in the middle of this scale, is neutral. Blood is normally slightly basic, with a normal pH range of about 7.35 to 7.45. Usually, the body maintains the pH of blood close to 7.40.

Hope this helps

A 7.5 L cylinder contains 5 moles of gas at a temperature of 274°C. What is its pressure in kiloPascals (kPa)?
AleksAgata [21]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

 = 3032.15 kPa

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Using the equation;

PV = nRT , where P is the pressure,. V is the volume, n is the number of moles and T is the temperature and R is the gas constant, 0.08206 L. atm. mol−1.

Volume = 7.5 L, T = 274 +273 = 547 K, N = 5 moles

Therefore;

Pressure = nRT/V

               = (5 × 0.08206 × 547)/7.5 L

               = 29.925 atm

But; 1 atm = 101325 pascals

Hence; Pressure = 3032150.63 pascals

                            <u>= 3032.15 kPa</u>
