 The empirical  formula  of  lead oxide  is  PbO

  <u><em>Calculation</em></u>

Step  1:  find the  mass  of  oxygen that reacted

  =mass of the product- mass  of lead

= 1.077 g - 1.000 =0.077 g

Step 2:  find  the mole of each reactant

 moles = mass/molar mass

the molar mass of Pb  =207 g/mol  while that of O = 16g/mol from periodic table

moles of lead(Pb)  is therefore = 1.000 g / 207 g/mol =0.0048  moles

  moles of O2  =0.077g/16 g/mol =0.0048 moles

Step  3:  find the mole  ratio

that is divide each mole by smallest number of mole (0.0048)

Pb = 0.0048/0.0048 =1

O=0.0048/0.0048 =1

  • from  mole ratio  above in 1 atom  of Pb of the product we have  1 atom of O  therefore  the empirical formula is PbO

It mean it consisted of 1 g of lead and 0.077 g of O2.
divide these numbers by molar mas.
1/82=0.012 Pb /0.004 = 3
0.077/16= 0.004 O /0.004 =1
Pb3O

Which of the following is not found in the nucleus of an atom?
DochEvi [55]
Electron -  In an atom, the central part which is composed of neutrons and protons including quarks is called the nucleus. Whereas the electron is the particle with negative elementary electric charge can be found inside the atom surrounding the nucleus.

1 mole of hcl(g) has a greater entropy than 1 mole of hbr(g). true or false
yan [13]
False. Due to:
Entropy increases with molecular size (mass of compound)
HBr has greater molecular size (molar mass) than HCl
The value of standard entropy of HCl(g) is 187 joules/ kelvin 
The value of standard entropy of HBr(g) is 199 joules / kelvin
