Answer:

Empirical formula: NbO_2

Explanation:

  • One oxide ion in the middle of each edge => cubes have 12 edges => O=12
  • One niobium atom at the center of each face => cubes have 6 faces => Nb=6

Cell formula: Nb_6O_{12}

Empirical formula: NbO_2

<em>This formula corresponds to a niobium valence of +4 </em>

Answer:

3.94 L

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of O₂ = 5.62 g

Volume of O₂ =?

Next, we shall determine the number of mole present in 5.62 g of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of O₂ = 5.62 g

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mole of O₂ =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of O₂ = 5.62 / 32

Mole of O₂ = 0.176 mole

Finally, we shall determine the volume of 5.62 g (i.e 0.176 mole) of O₂ at STP. This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of O₂ occupied 22.4 L at STP.

Therefore, 0.176 mole of O₂ will occupy = 0.176 × 22.4 = 3.94 L at STP.

Thus 5.62 g (i.e 0.176 mole) of O₂ occupied 3.94 L at STP

Which property could allow a student to easily separate sand and iron filings? (1 point,
Artist 52 [7]

Magnetic separation is a method that uses magnetic force to remove the magnetically sensitive material from a mixture. Because iron is attracted by magnets, this is the ideal method for separating sand and iron fillings.

Magnetism was the physical attribute that allowed this combination to be separated. I used the magnet to separate the iron filing from the sand in the mixture. The magnet attracted the iron filings but not the sand. We were able to separate the iron filings from the sand as a result of this.

Because iron is magnetic while the other two are not, a magnet may be used to pull the iron filings out of the mixture while leaving the salt and sand. Sand is not water-soluble, although salt is. This implies they may be combined in water and swirled together. The salt dissolves, but the sand does not.
