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

Suppose you have 81.8 g of Cd. How many Cd atoms are present? Report your answer in scientific notation using the format of 6.02
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

1. number of Cd atoms = 4.384 × 10²³

2. number of moles of Ti = 0.817 mol

3. molar mass of C₇H₆O₃ = 138.077 g/mol

4. moles of Sildenafil = 0.249 mmol

Explanation:

1. given data

mass of Cd = 81.8 g

number of Cd atoms = ?

molar mass of Cd = 112.411 g/mol

Solution

1st we find out the number of moles of Cd

<em>         number of moles = mass / molar mass </em>

 number of moles of Cd = 81.8 g / 112.411 g.mol⁻

 number of moles of Cd = 0.728 mol

Now we find out the number of Cd atoms

<em>       number of atoms = moles × 6.022 × 10²³</em>

 number of Cd atoms = 0.728 (6.022 × 10²³)

 number of Cd atoms = 4.384 × 10²³

 

2. Given data

Mass of Ti = 39.1 g

moles = ?

molar mass Ti = 47.867 g/mol

Solution

Now we will find out the number of moles

<em>         number of moles = mass / molar mass </em>

 number of moles of Ti = 39.1 g / 47.867 g.mol⁻

 number of moles of Ti = 0.817 mol

3. Given data

chemical formula of Salicylic acid  = C₇H₆O₃

molar mass of salicylic acid = ?

molar mass of carbon = 12.011

molar mass of hydrogen = 1.008

molar mass of oxygen = 15.999

<em>         molar mass of  molecule = number of moles of atoms × molar mass of atoms</em>

  molar mass of C₇H₆O₃ = 7 (12.011) + 6 (1) + 3 (16)

  molar mass of C₇H₆O₃ = 84.077 g + 6 g + 48 g

  molar mass of C₇H₆O₃ = 138.077 g/mol

4. Given data

molar mass of Sildenafil = 474.5828 g/mol

mass given = 0.118 g

moles of Sildenafil = ?

Solution

Now we find out the number of moles

<em>          number of moles = mass / molar mass </em>

<em>   </em>number of moles Sildenafil = 0.118 g / 474.5828 g/mol

  number of moles Sildenafil = 0.0003 mol

as this is very small amount we convert it into millimoles

           <em>millimoles = moles × 1000</em>

    millimoles of Sildenafil = 0.000249 × 1000

    millimoles of Sildenafil = 0.249 mmol
