Without doing any calculations, list the elements in c2h4o2 in order of decreasing mass percent composition.

Chemistry
1 answer:
tia_tia [17]3 years ago
6 0
In <span>c2h4o2 there are
2 atoms of carbon
4 atoms of hydrogen
2 atoms of oxygen

Hydrogen atomic masses is 1 which was very low so 4 of them would still be the lowest mass percent. Then we have carbon and oxygen which both have 2 atoms. Oxygen atomic mass is more than carbon atomic mass, so oxygen should contribute more mass percent composition. The sequence from higher mass percent composition should be:
1. Oxygen
2. Carbon
3. Hydrogen</span>

How much pressure would 0.8 moles of a gas at 370K exert if it occupied 17.3L of space
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

1.40 atm is the pressure for the gas

Explanation:

An easy problem to solve with the Ideal Gases Law:

P . V = n . R .T

T° = 370K

V = 17.3L

n = 0.8 mol

Let's replace data → P . 17.3L = 0.8mol . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 370K

P = (0.8mol . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 370K) / 17.3L = 1.40 atm

Why does green light slow down more than orange light does when passing through an object?
otez555 [7]
The correct answer among the choices is the last option. <span>Green light has a higher frequency than orange light. Frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength. G</span>reen has wavelengths ranging form 495 to 570 nm and orange has wavelengths ranging from 590 to 620 nm. Speed is said to be directly proportional with wavelength. Higher wavelength means more faster light.

What mass, in grams, of sodium sulfate is needed to make 230.5 g of a 3.5 % (m/m) aqueous solution of sodium sulfate?
andreev551 [17]

The percent concentration of a solution can be calculated from; mass of solute /mass of solution * 100. The mass of the solute here is 8.1 g.

<h3>What is concentration?</h3>

The term concentration refers to the amount of solute presnt in a solution. There are many ways of expressing concentration such as molarity, molality and percentage.

Here;

mass of solution = 230.5 g

Percent of solute =  3.5 %

3.5 = x/ 230.5 * 100

3.5 = 100x/230.5

230.5(3.5) = 100x

x = 230.5(3.5) /100

x = 8.1 g

Limit sodium intake to less than ____________ per day. Limit saturated fat intake to less than ____________ of daily kilocalorie
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Limit sodium intake to less than <em><u>2,300mg</u></em> per day. Limit saturated fat intake to less than <em><u>10% </u></em>of daily kilocalories. Limit intake of added sugars to less than<em><u> 5% </u></em>of daily kilocalories. Limit intake of alcohol to less than <em><u>3 drinks </u></em>per day for men or less than <em><u>2 drinks</u></em> per day for women.

Explanation:

The human body has been designed such that there are dietary requirements and benefits these intakes give the body. However, excess consumption of certain foods, could be far more detrimental both on the short and long run.

Sodium is majorly consumed in the form of salt (Sodium chloride). When eaten in the right quantity, it serves as an electrolyte which maintains fluid balance in the body however, when taken in excess, it pulls too much fluid, leading to high blood pressure. The recommended salt intake therefore, is less than 2,300mg daily.

Saturated fat when consumed, is a good source for the body to convert diet to energy, keeping the blood sugar levels constant. Lard, fatty meats are examples of saturated fat. However, when consumed in large amounts, saturated fats can cause cholesterol build up in blood vessels, increasing the risk of heart disease. Its intake should therefore be limited to less than 10% of daily kilocalories.

Added sugars are sources of energy to the body however, when taken in large amounts, could impede normal metabolism in the body. Added sugars should be restricted to less than 5% of daily kilocalories in diet.

Alcohol intake such as in wine, when done in moderation, has been shown to reduce the risk of heart diseases. However, when taken in excess, tolerance builds and exposes the body to the risk of conditions such as liver disease, alcohol use disorder.
