Answer:

Sn = 78.77%

O = 21.23%

Explanation:

The atomic mass of Sn = 118.71 g/mol

The atomic mass of O = 16 g/mol

The molar mass of SnO₂ = atomic mass of Sn + 2 X atomic mass of O

The molar mass of SnO₂= 150.71

Now, in each mole of SnO₂ there is one mole of Sn and two moles of O

The mass of Sn in 150.71 g of SnO₂ = 118.71

Percentage of Sn in 150.71 g of SnO₂ = \frac{MassofSnX100}{massofSnO_{2} }

% of Sn = \frac{118.71X100}{150.71}=78.77%.

Rest will be O = 100-78.77 = 21.23%

Atomic mass of Sn = 118.71 amu. Atomic mass of O = 15.99 amu,
∴ <span>percent composition by mass of Sn =
   atomic mass of Sn x 100/molar mass of SnO2 = 118.71 x 100/150.69
                                                                             = 78.77%
</span>percent composition by mass of O = 15.99 x 100/150.69 = 10.61%

Take car traveling with constant speed travels at 150 km in 7200 a. what is the speed of the car?
Andrej [43]
<span>Find the speed of the car in which it travels at 150 km in 7200 seconds.
This is an easy question, you just need to follow the given formula as always.
Since the time and the distance is already given, we are now looking for the speed
=> time = 7200 seconds
=> distance = 150km</span><span>
d = speed x time
S = distance / time
s = 150 km / 7200 seconds
s = 0.021 km / seconds.
Thus, the car travels for about 0.021 km per seconds.
