How many oxygen atoms are present in 23.6 grams of aspartame?

The formula of aspartame is <span>C14H18N2O5.
From the periodic table:
molecular mass of hydrogen = 1 grams
molecular mass of carbon = 12 grams
molecular mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
molecular mass of oxygen = 16 grams

This means that:
molar mass of aspartame = 14(12)+18(1)+2(14)+5(16) = 294 grams
Therefore, each 294 grams of aspartame contains 5(16) = 80 grams of oxygen. To know number of grams of oxygen in 23.6 grams of aspartame, simply use cross multiplication as follows:
mass of oxygen = (23.6x80) / 294 = 6.42 grams</span>

How many atoms are there in 5K2CO3
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Depends on what are you refering to

Explanation:

So depending on what you are looking for (your question is quite vauge)

there are 5 atoms of the comopound (K2CO3)

within that compound, there are 2 atoms of Potassium and 1 atom of Carbonate. Within Carbonate there are 4 atoms (1 carbon and 3 oxygens)

so answers may be

5, 15, or 25.

I hope this helps.

True or false? different reactions require different catalysts.
lapo4ka [179]

True, different reactions require different catalysts. Hence, option 1 is correct.

<h3>What are catalysts?</h3>

A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction or lowers the temperature or pressure needed to start one, without itself being consumed during the reaction.

Though a catalyst is supposed to remain unaltered at the end of the reaction, it does take part in the reaction by providing active centres for the reaction to take place.

By helping to form a suitable activated complex in the course of the reaction, the catalyst increases the rate of formation of the product, as well as its yield.

Therefore, a catalyst has to be reactant-specific to form the favourable activated complex or intermediate.

Hence, option 1 is correct.

Romashka [77]

My sample would be 4000 years old because on my graph, I had about 9 Virtualium left at trial 4 so I am guessing that it would be 4000 years old.

Consider the reaction between a solution of molecule A and a solid block of molecule B. In general, for a reaction to occur, the
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Decreasing the volume of solvent in the solution of molecule A

Explanation:

We know that one of the factors that affect the rate of reaction is the concentration of the reactants. The greater the concentration of reactants, the faster the rate of reaction (the greater the frequency of collision between reactants).

Hence, when we decrease the volume of solvent in the solution of molecule A, the concentration of the solution increases and consequently more particles of molecule A are available to collide with particles of molecule B resulting in a higher rate of reaction.
