Molar mass is the mass of one stable molecule of a compound, that cannot join with another molecule of the same kind to form a new one, while an empirical formula is the molecular formula in its simplest form. E.g. empirical formula of ethene is CH2while its molecular formula is C2H4.

To test the purity of sodium bicarbonate, you dissolve a 3.50g sample in water and add sulfuric acid. if 1.04g of carbon dioxide
Andrews [41]

Answer is: the percent purity of the sodium bicarbonate is 56.83 %.

1. Chemical reaction: 2NaHCO₃ + H₂SO₄ → 2CO₂ + 2H₂O + Na₂SO₄.

2. m(NaHCO₃) = 3.50 g

n(NaHCO₃) = m(NaHCO₃) ÷ M(NaHCO₃).

n(NaHCO₃) = 3.50 g ÷ 84 g/mol.

n(NaHCO₃) = 0.042 mol.

3. From chemical reaction: n(NaHCO₃) : n(CO₂) = 1 : 1.

n(CO₂) = 0.042 mol.

m(CO₂) = 0.042 mol · 44 g/mol.

m(CO₂) = 1.83 g.

4. the percent purity = 1.04 g/1.83 g  ·100%.

the percent purity = 56.8 %.

Which mixture can be separated based on differences in the particle size of the components?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer: Mixtures you can separate are like cereal and milk. Hope that helps

Explanation:  Filteration is required to separate a mixture.

So heterogeneous mixures (that contain substances with different particle sizes)  can be separated with a filter.  

Homogeneous mixtures are uniform in composition so they will not be able to be separated.
