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.

What is the mole, and why is it useful in chemistry?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:The mole is important because it allows chemists to work with the subatomic world with macro world units and amounts. Atoms, molecules and formula units are very small and very difficult to work with usually. However, the mole allows a chemist to work with amounts large enough to use.

4.45 kcal of heat was added to increase the temperature of a sample of water from 23.0 °C to 57.8 °C. Calculate
Alona [7]

Answer:

m = 4450 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Amount of heat added = 4.45 Kcal ( 4.45 kcal ×1000 cal/ 1kcal = 4450 cal)

Initial temperature = 23.0°C

Final temperature = 57.8°C

Specific heat capacity of water = 1 cal/g.°C

Mass of water in gram = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 57.8°C - 23.0°C

ΔT = 34.8°C

4450 cal = m × 1 cal/g.°C × 34.8°C

m = 4450 cal / 1 cal/g

m = 4450 g
