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%

A solution is made by mixing 37.g of thiophene C4H4S and 72.g of heptane C7H16. Calculate the mole fraction of thiophene in this
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

0.38

Explanation:

Molar mass of thiophene= 84g/mol

Mass of thiophene = 37g

Number of moles= 37/84= 0.44 moles

Molar mass of heptane= 100 g/mol

Mass of heptane = 72g

Number of moles = 72/100= 0.72 moles

Total number of moles= 0.44 + 0.72= 1.16 moles

mole fraction of thiophene = 0.44/1.16= 0.38

Complete Question

Questions Diagram is attached below

Answer:

*  W=1142.86Joule

*  Q=997.7J

*  H=2140.5J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Temperature T=337K

Pressure P=(60-55)Pa*10^5

VolumeV=(1.6-1.4)m^3*10^{-3}

Generally the equation for gas Constant is mathematically given by

\frac{P_2}{P_1}=\frac{V_1}{V_2}^n

 \frac{55*10^5}{60*10^5}=\frac{1.4*10^{-3}}{1.6*10^{-3}}^n

 n=0.65

Therefore

Work-done

 W=\int{pdv}

 W=\frac{55*10^5*1.6*10^{-3}*60*10^5*1.4*10^{-3}}{1-0.65}

 W=1142.86Joule

Generally the equation for internal energy is mathematically given by

 Q=mC_vdT\\\\Q=\frac{3*1*3.314*16}{1.4-1}

 Q=997.7J

Therefore

 H=Q+W

 H=997.7J-11.42.9

 H=2140.5J

19) The nuclear symbol of helium,
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Alpha particle

Explanation:

The helium symbol is also used to represent he alpha particles.

For example:

The americium with atomic wight  224 undergo alpha decay and produce

₉₃Np²³⁷ . The alpha particle emitted is also called helium nuclei. During this decay some gamma radiations also produce as a byproduct.

₉₅Am²²⁴   →    ₉₃Np²³⁷ + ₂He⁴

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number 4 less than and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.
