The empirical formula for a compound is KClO3
Explanation
find the moles of each element
moles = % composition/molar mass
molar mass of of potassium =39g/mol ,chlorine = 35.5 g/mol, oxygen =16 g/mol
moles of potassium = 31.9 / 39 = 0.818 moles
moles of chlorine = 28.9/35.5 = 0.814 moles
moles of oxygen = 39.2/ 16 = 2.45 moles
find the mole ratio by dividing with the smallest mole = 0.814 moles
potassium = 0.818/0.814 =1
chlorine = 0.814/0.814 = 1
oxygen = 2.45 /0.814 =3
the empirical formula is therefore = KClO3
Amorphous is the answer. A glass is an amorphous solid.
Answer:
Z=22.70
Explanation:
It is given that,
An element Z that has two naturally occurring isotopes with the following percent abundances as follows :
The isotope with a mass number 22 is 65.0% abundant; the isotope with a mass number 24 is 35.0% abundant.
The average atomic mass for element Z is given by :
So, the average atomic mass for element Z is 22.70.
