Can someone tell me how do I finish this problem?!

Two samples of the same compound are compared. what does the data represent? sample 1: 24.22 g carbon and 32.00 g oxygen sample

goblinko [34]

According to law of definite proportion:

In a compound, elements are always arranged in fixed ratio by mass.

Here, sample 1 has 23.22 g Carbon and 32.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

$n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{24.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 2 mol$

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

$n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{32 g}{16 g/mol}=2 mol$

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

$C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=2:2=1:1$

Therefore, formula of compound will be CO.

Sample 2:

It has 36.22 g Carbon and 48.00 g Oxygen.

Converting mass into number of moles:

Molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and that of oxygen is 16 g/mol thus,

$n_{C}=\frac{m_{C}}{M_{C}}=\frac{36.22 g}{12 g/mol}\approx 3 mol$

Similarly, number of moles of oxygen will be:

$n_{O}=\frac{m_{O}}{M_{O}}=\frac{48 g}{16 g/mol}=3 mol$

The ratio of number of moles of carbon and oxygen will be:

$C:O=n_{C}:n_{O}=3:3=1:1$

The formula of compound will be CO.

Therefore, it is proved that carbon and oxygen are present in fixed ratios in both the samples.

E. What is one way that your body knows if it is upside-down or not?

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

You get some type of pressure that you start to feel in your muscles and joints from gravity and movement. How do they say it? Something called "seat-of-the-pants" (something like that). You get some type of pressure, and your body senses it, and it knows when you are upside-down or not, because if you're not, then you won't get any pressure in your muscle.

Hope this helped!

Have a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious day!

Summarize the relationship between an electron's energy level and its location in an atom

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The further an electron is from the nucleus. the greater its energy level.

Explanation:

When an electron is close to the nucleus, it is at as low an energy level as it can get.

We must put energy into an electron to pull it away from the attraction of a nucleus.

So, electrons that are further from the nucleus are at higher energy levels.

An industrial manufacturer wants to convert 175 kg of methane into HCN. Calculate the masses of ammonia and molecular oxygen req

Tema [17]

Given:

175 kilograms of Methane (CH4) to be synthesized into Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN)

The balanced chemical equation is shown below:

2 CH4 + 2 NH3 + 3 O2 → 2 HCN + 6 H2O

To calculate for the masses of ammonia and oxygen needed, our basis will be 175 kg CH4.

Molar mass:
CH4 = 16 kg/kmol
NH3 = 17 kg/kmol
O2 = 32 kg/kmol

mass of NH3 = 175 kg CH4 / 16 kg/kmol * (2/2) * 17 kg/kmol
mass of NH3 = 185.94 kg NH3 needed

mass of O2 = 175 kg CH4 / 16 kg/kmol * (3/2) * 32 kg/kmol
mass of O2 = 525 kg

mass of O = 525 kg / 32 kg/kmol * (1/2) * 16 kg/kmol
mass of O = 131.25 kg O
