Answer:

1. Mass of Carbon is 56.89g

2. Mass of Hydrogen is 6.33g

3. Mass of Oxygen is 75.88

Explanation:

The following were obtained from the question.

Mass of the compound = 139.1g

Mass of CO2 produced = 208.6g

Mass of H2O produced = 56.93

1. Determination of mass of Carbon (C). This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 44g/mol

Mass of C = 12/44 x 208.6

Mass of C = 56.89g

2. Determination of the mass of Hydrogen (H). This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H = 2/18 x 56.93

Mass of H = 6.33g

3. Determination of the mass of oxygen (O).

This is illustrated below:

Mass of the compound = 139.1g

Mass of C = 56.89g

Mass of H = 6.33g

Mass of O = Mass of compound - (mass of C + Mass of H)

Mass of O = 139.1 - (56.89 + 6.33)

Mass of O = 139.1 - 63.22

Mass of O = 75.88

Which of the following is true?

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

a. A reaction in which the entropy of the system increases can be spontaneous only if it is endothermic.

Explanation:

The change in free energy (ΔG) that is, the <u>energy available to do work</u>, of a system for a constant-temperature process is:

$ΔG = ΔH - TΔS$

When ΔG < 0 the reaction is spontaneous in the forward direction.

When ΔG > 0 the reaction is nonspontaneous. The reaction is

spontaneous in the opposite direction.

When ΔG = 0 the system is at equilibrium.

If <u>both ΔH and ΔS are positive</u>, then ΔG will be negative only when the TΔS term is greater in magnitude than ΔH. This condition is met when T is large.

A metal, M, forms an oxide having the formula MO2 containing 59.93% metal by mass. Determine the atomic weight in g/mole of the

Damm [24]

Answer:

See solution.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to set up the formula for the calculation of the by-mass percentage of the metal:

$\% M=\frac{m_M}{m_M+2*m_O}*100 \%\\\\59.93\% =\frac{m_M}{m_M+32.00}*100 \%$

Thus, we solve for the molar mass of the metal to obtain:

$59.93\% (m_M+32.00) =m_M*100 \%\\\\m_M*59.93\% +1917.76\% =m_M*100 \%\\\\m_M=47.86g/mol$

For the subsequent problems, we proceed as follows:

a.

$4.00gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32.00gO_2}=0.125molO_2$

b.

$0.400molH_2S*\frac{2molH}{1molH_2S}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}atomsH}{1molH}=4.82x10^{23}atomsH$

c.

$0.235gNH_3*\frac{1molNH_3}{17.03gNH_3} *\frac{3molH}{1molNH_3}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}atomsH}{1molH}=2.49x10^{22}atomsH$

In what specific situations would you use a light microscope? an electron<br>microscope?

galina1969 [7]

ANSWER

A standard light microscope is used to view living organisms with little contrast to distinguish them from the background, which would be harder to see with the electron microscope.

Electron microscopes can be used to examine not just whole cells, but also the subcellular structures and compartments within them.
