Answer:
108.9g of Silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S
Explanation:
The compound Ag2S shows that two atoms of Silver Ag, combined with an atom of Sulphur S to form Ag2S. We can as well say the combination ration of Silver to Sulphur is 2:1
•Now we need to calculate the molecular weight of this compound by summing up the molar masses of each element in the compound.
•Molar mass of Silver Ag= 107.9g/mol
•Molar mass of Sulphur S= 32g/mol
•Molecular weight of Ag2S= (2×107.9g/mol) + 32g/mol
•Molecular weight of Ag2S= 215.8g/mol + 32g/mol= 247.8g/mol
•From our calculations, we know that 215.8g/mol of Ag is present in 247.8g/mol of Ag2S
If 247.8g Ag2S produced 215.8g Ag
125g Ag2S will produce xg Ag
cross multiplying we have
xg= 215.8g × 125g / 247.8g
xg= 26975g/247.8
xg= 108.85g
Therefore, 108.9g of Silver can be produced from 125g of Ag2S
Answer: Absolute dating is used to determine a precise age of a rock or fossil through radiometric dating methods. This uses radioactive minerals that occur in rocks and fossils almost like a geological clock. ... These isotopes break down at a constant rate over time through radioactive decay.
Answer:
It would be known as a chemical reaction or a chemical compound.
Answer:
use coefficients and subscripts to determine how many atoms are in a compound. If there is no subscript or coefficient, assume it is 1. If there is a coefficient, multiply it with the subscripts. For counting cations and anions, determine first which is the anion and cation (anion = nonmetal, cation = metal), then count the number of that ion.
Example:
NaCl
one atom of Na, one atom of Cl. Since Na is a metal, it is a cation. Cl is a nonmetal, so it is an anion.
2CaCl2
2 atoms of Ca, 4 atoms of Cl. There are 2 cations, since Na is a metal, and 4 anions since Cl is a nonmetal
