Suppose there are two known compounds containing the generic elements X and Y. You have a 1.00-g sample of each compound. One sa

mple contains 0.25 g of X and the other contains 0.33 g of X. Identify plausible sets of formulas for these two compounds. Check all that apply.

I think the correct answers are X2Y and X3Y, X2Y5 and X3Y5, and X4Y2 and X3Y, for the following reason: 

If you look at the combining masses of X and Y in each of the two compounds, 

The first compound contains 0.25g of X combined with 0.75g of Y 
so the ratio (by mass) of X to Y = 1 : 3 

The second compound contains 0.33 g of X combined with 0.67 g of Y 
so the ratio (by mass) of X to Y = 1 : 2 

Now, you suppose to prepare each of these two compounds, starting with the same fixed mass of element Y ( I will choose 12g of Y for an easy calculation!) 

The first compound will then contain 4g of X and 12g of Y 
The second compound will then contain 6g of X and 12g of Y 

<span>The ratio which combined the masses of X and the fixed mass (12g) of Y
= 4 : 6 
<span>or 2 : 3 </span>

So, the ratio of MOLES of X which combined with the fixed amount of Y in the two compounds is also = 2 : 3 </span>

The two compounds given with the plausible formula must therefore contain the same ratio.

How many Faradays of electricity are carried by 1.505×10^23 electronsk​
aksik [14]

Mole of electron required by 1.505 *10^{23} mole is 2.5* 10  ^{-1}

  • Faraday law expressed how the  change that is been being produced by a current at an electrode-electrolyte interface is related and  proportional to the quantity of electricity  that is been used.

  • There is one mole of electron required for 1 Faraday of electricity.

  • Avogadro constant is 6.02*10^{23}

  • Mole of electron can be calculated by dividing the number of electron by avogadro's constant.

=\frac{1.505*10^{23} }{6.02*10^{23} }

= 2.5* 10^{-1}  Faraday  of electricity

Therefore, it requires  2.5*10^{-1} Faraday of electricity for the 1.505 *  10^{23}  mole.
