Explanation:

Defining law of definite proportions, it states that when two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will always be ratios of small whole numbers.

A. One of the oxides (Oxide 1) contains 63.2% of Mn.

Mass of the oxide = 100g

Mass of Mn = 63.2 g

Mass of O = 100 - 63.2

= 36.8 g

Ratio of Mn to O = 63.2/36.8

= 1.72

Another oxide (Oxide 2) contains 77.5% Mn.

Mass of oxide = 100 g

Mass of Mn = 77.5 g

Mass of O = 100 - 77.5

= 22.5 g

Ratio of Mn to O = 77.5/22.5

= 3.44

Therefore, the ratio of the masses of Mn and O in Oxide 1 and Oxide 2 is in the ratio 1.72 : 3.44, which is also 1 : 2. So the law of multiple proportions is obeyed.

B.

Oxide 1

Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O

= 77.5/22.5

= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.

Oxide 2

Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O

= 77.5/22.5

= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.

How many moles of propane<br> react when 294 g of CO2 form?<br><br> C3H8 +502 → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O
tatiyna

2.23 moles of propane react when 294 g of CO₂ is formed .

<h3>What is moles ?</h3>

Moles is a unit which is equal to the molar mass of an element.

A reaction is given

C₃H₈ +50₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

Grams of CO₂ formed = 294 gm

In moles = 294 /44 = 6.68 moles.

Let x be the moles of C₃H₈ is x

Mole ratio of CO₂ to C₃H₈ = 3 : 1

so

6.68 /x = 3/1

x = 6.68 /3 = 2.23 moles

Therefore 2.23 moles of propane react when 294 g of CO₂ is formed .

An atom of an element has 54 protons. Some of the elements atoms have 77 neutrons, while other atoms have 79 neutrons. What are
Alja [10]

Answer:

The atomic numbers of both are 54 while the mass numbers are 131 and 133 respectively.

Explanation:

- The number of protons = Atomic number. So, if the atom has 54 protons and it remained unchanged, then the two types of atoms of this element both have atomic numbers of 54.

- On the other hand, mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons

So, if type 1 has protons = 54 and neutrons = 77: mass number = 54 + 77 = 131

if Type 2 has protons = 54 and neutrons = 79: mass number = 54 + 77 = 133

(Since the possibility of atoms of the same element to have different mass numbers but the same atomic number is called isotopy). The two types of atoms with mass numbers 131 and 133 described are isotopes.
