C7H16, where C=12.01, and H=1.01, so the weight of the molecule would be 7(12.01)+16(1.01), or 100.23. The percentage of carbon would be found by ((7*12.01)/100.23)*100=83.88% Carbon
((16*1.01)/100.23)*100=16.12% Hydrogen

Answer:

<u>5 moles S x (36.02 g S/mole S) = 180.1 grams of S</u>

Explanation:

The periodic table has mass units for every element that can be correlated with the number of atoms of that element.  The relationship is known as Avogadro's Number.  This number, 6.02x10^{23} , is nicknamed the mole, which scientists found to be a lot more catchy, and easier to write than  6.02x10^{23}.  <u>The mole is correlated to the atomic mass of that element.</u>  The atomic mass of sulfur, S, is 36.02 AMU, atomic mass units.  <u>But it can also be read as 36.02 grams/mole.</u>

<u></u>

<u>This means that 36.02 grams of S contains 1 mole (6.02x</u>10^{23}<u>) of S atoms</u>.

<u></u>

This relationship holds for all the elements.  Zinc, Zn, has an atomic mass of 65.38 AMU, so it has a "molar mass" of 65.38 grams/mole.  ^5.38 grams of Zn contains 1 mole of Zn atoms.  

And so on.

5.0 moles of Sulfur would therefore contain:

(5.0 moles S)*(36.02 grams/mole S) = <u>180.1 grams of S</u>

Note how the units cancel to leaves just grams.  The units are extremely helpful in mole calculations to insure the correct mathematical operation is done.  To find the number of moles in 70 g of S, for example, we would write:

(70g S)/(36.02 grams S/mole S) = 1.94 moles of S.  [<u>Note how the units cancel to leave just moles</u>]

A florist prepares a solution of nitrogen-phosphorus fertilizer by dissolving 5.66 g of NH₄NO₃ and 4.42 g of (NH₄)₃ PO₄ in enoug
Alexandra [31]

In finding the molarity of a solution, we use the following formula:

M=moles soluteL solution

What is Molarity?

The number of moles of the solute is calculated by dividing the mass of the solute by its molar mass.

<h3 />

The molar mass of  NH4NO3 and (NH4)3PO4 are  80.043 g/mol and 149.0867 g/mol, respectively.

molesNH+4inNH4NO3=5.66 g80.043 g/mol×1molNH+41molNH4NO3=0.0707 mol

molesNH+4in(NH4)3PO4=4.42 g149.0867 g/mol×3molNH+41mol(NH4)3PO4=0.0889 mol

total molesNH+4=0.0707 mol+0.0889 mol=0.1596 mol

molesPO3−4in(NH4)3PO4=4.42 g149.0867 g/mol×1molPO3−41mol(NH4)3PO4=0.0296 mol

[NH+4]=0.1596 mol20.0 L=7.98×10−3 M NH+4

[PO3−4]=0.0296 mol20.0 L=1.48×10−3 M PO3−4

Therefore, [PO3−4]\\ has a molarity of  1.48×10−3 M PO3−
