How many atoms are in a sample of 68.7 g copper (Cu)?

Chemistry

<span>Divide the number of grams present in the sample by copper's gram atomic weight to find the number of gram atomic weights present. Then multiply that result by Avogadro's Number: 6.022137 x 10^23 atoms/gram atomic weight.1,200 g/(63.54 g/gram atomic weight) ? 18.885741 gram-atomic weights. Hope this helps. </span>

First convert grams into moles.
Then convert moles to atoms.

There are 63.546 grams of copper per mole. (This is just copper's atomic weight)
Thus, a 68.7 gram copper sample is (68.7/63.546) mols = 1.081 mols.

There are 6.022 * 10^23 atoms per mol.
6.022 * 10^23 * 1.081 = 6.52 * 10^23

<span>Answer: option D) Conditions over the oceans change slowly because water takes more time than land to gain or lose heat.

This is because water has a high heat capacity meaning that, with the same amount of heat, it will change its temperature less than what substances with lower heat capacities do.

How many grams of H2O can be made from the combustion of 3.75 liters of C7H14 and an excess of O2 at STP?
Kitty [74]

Answer:

21.10g of H2O

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

2C7H14 + 21O2 —> 14CO2 + 14H2O

From the balanced equation above, 2L of C7H14 produced 14L of H2O.

Therefore, 3.75L of C7H14 will produce = (3.75 x 14)/2 = 26.25L of H2O.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of H2O that will occupy 26.25L at stp. This is illustrated below:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at stp

Therefore, Xmol of H2O will occupy

26.25L i.e

Xmol of H2O = 26.25/22.4

Xmol of H2O = 1.172 mole

Therefore, 1.172 mole of H2O is produced from the reaction.

Next, we shall convert 1.172 mole of H2O to grams. This is illustrated below:

Number of mole H2O = 1.172 mole

Molar mass of H2O = (2x1) + 16 = 18g/mol

Mass of H2O =..?

Mass = mole x molar mass

Mass of H2O = 1.172 x 18

Mass of H2O = 21.10g

Therefore, 21.10g of H2O is produced from the reaction.

Compound X has a molar mass of 266.64 g/mol and the following composition: aluminum 20.24% chlorine 79.76% Write the molecular f
N76 [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assume we have 100g of this substance. That means we would have 20.24g of Cl and 79.76g of Al. Now we can find how many moles of each we have:

\frac{79.76 \:g}{35.45 \: g/mol} = 2.25 mol of chlorine

\frac{20.24 \: g}{26.98 \: g/mol} = 0.750 mol of Al.

To form a integer ratio, do 2.25/0.75 = 2.99999 ~= 3.

So the ratio is essentially Al : Cl => 1 : 3. To the compound is possibly AlCl_3.

However, it says it has a molar mass of 266.64 g/mol, and since AlCl3 has a molar mass of 133.32, it must be Al_2Cl_6.

Actually this molecule isn't exactly AlCl3 (which is ionic). Al2Cl6 forms a banana bond where Cl acts as a hapto-2 ligand. But that's a bit advanced. All you need to know is X = Al2Cl6

Using the systematic approach for equilibrium problems, calculate the pH of 0.05 M HOCl. Ka= 3.0*10-8 Group of answer choices 3.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The pH is equal to 4.41

Explanation:

Since HClO is a weak acid, its dissociation in aqueous medium is:

                HClO   ⇄   ClO-  +  H+

start:          0.05            0         0

change       -x               +x       +x

balance     0.05-x         x         x

As it is a weak acid it dissociates very little, in its ClO- and H + ions, so the change is negative, where x is a degree of dissociation.

the acidity constant when equilibrium is reached is equal to:

Ka=\frac{[ClO-]*[H+]}{[HClO]}=\frac{x*x}{0.05-x}=3x10^{-8}

The 0.05-x fraction can be approximated to 0.05, because the ionized fraction (x) is very small, therefore we have:

3x10^{-8}=\frac{x^{2} }{0.05}

clearing the x and calculating its value we have:

x=3.87x10^{-5}=[H+]=[ClO-]

the pH can be calculated by:

pH=-log[H+]=-log[3.87x10^{-5}]=4.41
