Answer: The percentage composition of nitrogen , hydrogen and oxygen is 22.2 % , 1.59 % and 76.2% respectively.

Explanation:

Percentage composition is defined as the ratio of mass of substance to the total mass in terms of percentage.

Percentage composition=\frac{\text {mass of the element}}{\text {Total mass of the substance}}\times 100\%

a) {\text {percentage composition of nitrogen}}=\frac{\text {mass of nitrogen}}{\text {Total mass}}\times 100\%

{\text {percentage composition of nitrogen}}=\frac{9.8g}{9.8+0.7+33.6}\times 100\%=22.2\%

b) {\text {percentage composition of hydrogen}}=\frac{\text {mass of hydrogen}}{\text {Total mass}}\times 100\%

{\text {percentage composition of hydrogen}}=\frac{0.7}{9.8+0.7+33.6}\times 100\%=1.59\%

c) {\text {percentage composition of oxygen}}=\frac{\text {mass of oxygen}}{\text {Total mass}}\times 100\%

{\text {percentage composition of oxygen}}=\frac{33.6}{9.8+0.7+33.6}\times 100\%=76.2\%

The percentage composition of nitrogen , hydrogen and oxygen is 22.2 % , 1.59 % and 76.2% respectively.

Wear _______________________ when handling batteries, because they can explode or leak.
Basile [38]

The answer is: b. Safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

Battery acid (sulfuric acid) has pH = 0.

Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is a strong acid, it means that the solution of sufuric acid is more acidic (pH<7) than water (pH = 7).

Chemical dissociation of sulfuric acid in water:  

H₂SO₄(aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq).  

Sulfuric acid can come in contact with eyes and hands, so it is important to wear safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

10. An atom that has 13 protons and 13 electrons is a neutral aluminum (Al) atom. An atom that has 13 protons and 10 electrons i
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

An atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other.

For example,

Al atom has 13 protons and 13 electrons. The number of positive and negative charge is equal thus it will be neutral atom.

While the atom of Al which have 13 proton and 10 electron is not neutral. The positive charge is greater than negative by 3. Which means 3 electrons are lose by Al atom and form cation "Al⁺³".

Thus an atom of Al which has 13 protons and 10 electrons is Al cation (Al⁺³)

A flashbulb of volume 1.70 mL contains O2(g) at a pressure of 2.30 atm and a temperature of 18.0°C. How many grams of O2(g)
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

0.0001637 mol

Explanation:

PV = nRT

Very important formula in chem

2.3 atm * 0.0017 L = n * 0.082057 * 291 K

= 0.0001637 mol O2

This concept is very important in chem, practice it.
