The sample contains both Fe and oxygen

The mass of the sample is 36 g

28 g are Fe and 8 g are O

So to find the percent composition we can calculate using the following formula

Percent composition of the element = mass of the element / mass of the sample x 100%

Percent composition of Fe = 28 g / 36 g x 100 % = 77.8%

Percent composition of O = 8 g / 36 g x 100 % = 22.2%

The percentage composition for each of the elements is

Fe =77.8 % oxygen= 22.2%

calculation

% composition = mass of the element/total mass x100

total mass = 36g

The % composition of Fe = 28/36 x100 = 77.8%

The % composition of oxygen = 8/36 x100 = 22.2%

How much charged is required to reduced 2 moles of cr6+ to cr3+
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

6e⁻

Explanation:

Charge in reducing 2 mole of Cr⁶⁺ to Cr³⁺

              Cr⁶⁺   +      xe⁻           →       Cr³⁺

The numbers 6+ and 3+ on the chromium atoms are the oxidation number of the atom.

It shows the number of electrons that has been lost by chromium in an oxidation state.

         Cr⁶⁺ shows that it has lost 6 electrons. When an atom loses electrons, the number of protons becomes more. This makes it positively charged in nature.

      This analogy goes for Cr³⁺

 Therefore, in going from reactants to products, chromium

                                6+      →    3+

 In this kind of expression, the number of atoms must be conserved and the charges too;

                        2Cr⁶⁺   +      xe⁻           →       2Cr³⁺

    given 2 moles of Cr;

               To balance the charge;

               2(6+) + x(-) = 2(3+)

                   12 - x = 6

                          x  = 6

A charge of 6e⁻ is required to reduce 2 mole of Cr⁶⁺ to Cr³⁺

The deepest trench in the world is 11,000 m in depth. Assuming sea water to have a constant density of 1050 kg/m, determine the
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

113406825 N/m²

Explanation:

The pressure at depth of 11,000 m can be calculated by:

Pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Pressure  due to height

Atmospheric pressure = 101325 N/m²

Also,  

P_{height}=\rho\times g\times h

Where,  

\rho is the density of water (\rho=1050\ kg/m^3)

g is the gravitational acceleration = 9.81 m/s²

h = 11,000 m

P_{height}=1050\ kg/m^3\times 9.81\ m/s^2\times 11000\ m

Pressure  due to height = 113305500 N/m²

<u>Pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Pressure  due to height = 101325 N/m² + 113305500 N/m² = 113406825 N/m²</u>
