Calculation of Percent Composition

Chemistry
1 answer:
Trava [24]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C: 61.0%, H: 15.3%, N: 23.7%

Explanation:

We can calculate the percent by mass of each element using the following expression.

%Element = (mass of the element/mass of the compound) × 100%

Carbon

%C = (7.34 g/12.04 g) × 100% = 61.0%

Hydrogen

%H = (1.85 g/12.04 g) × 100% = 15.3%

Nitrogen

%N = (2.85 g/12.04 g) × 100% = 23.7%

The percent composition of this compound is C: 61.0%, H: 15.3%, N: 23.7%.

Identify a cation. Group of answer choices an atom that has lost a proton. an atom that has gained an electron an atom that has
pshichka [43]

Answer: An atom that has gained an electron.

Explanation:

The number of protons in an atom cannot change except for some exceptional circumstances.

Cations (or metal ions) are formed when atoms lose electrons, as they want to form a complete outer electron shell to become as stable as possible.

For example, potassium is a 1+ ion, because it has one electron in its outer shell (and in group one). Therefore, to become more stable that electron is lost to become an ion or cation. As one electron is lost, the potassium cation charge is 1+ as the charge of an electron is 1-.

What pressure is required to compress 156.0 liters of air at 2.00 atmosphere into a cylinder
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

option B.

Explanation:

Given,

V₁ = 156 L

P₁ =2 atm

Now, in the cylinder

P₂ = ?

V₂ = 36

Using relation between pressure and volume

\dfrac{P_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{P_2}{V_1}

\dfrac{2}{36}=\dfrac{P_2}{156}

P_2 = 8.67\ atm

Hence,  pressure is equal to 8.67 atm.

Hence, the correct answer is option B.
