the mass of crucible = 38.26

Mass of crucible + Ir = 39.52 g

So mass of Ir = 39.52 - 38.26 = 1.26 g

atomic mass of Ir = 192 g / mole

Moles of Ir = mass /  atomic mass = 1.26/ 192 = 0.0066

mass of crucible + Iridium oxide = 39.73 g

Mass of oxygen = total mass - (mass of Ir + mass of crucible )

Mass of oxygen = 39.73 - (39.52) = 0.21g

moles of O = mass / atomic mass = 0.21 / 16 = 0.0131

let us divide the moles of Ir and O with moles of Ir

moles of Ir = 0.0066 / 0.0066 = 1

Moles of O = 0.0131 /0.0066 = 1.98 = 2

the empirical formula = IrO2

1) Compund Ir (x) O(y)

2) Mass of iridium = mass of crucible and iridium - mass of crucible = 39.52 g - 38.26 g = 1.26 g

3) Mass of iridium oxide = mass of crucible and iridium oxide - mass of crucible = 39.73g - 38.26g = 1.47g

4) Mass of oxygen = mass of iridum oxide - mass of iridium = 1.47g - 1.26g = 0.21g

5) Convert grams to moles

moles of iridium = mass of iridium / molar mass of iridium = 1.26 g / 192.17 g/mol = 0.00656 moles

moles of oxygen = mass of oxygen / molar mass of oxygen = 0.21 g / 15.999 g/mol = 0.0131

6) Find the proportion of moles

Divide by the least of the number of moles, i.e. 0.00656

Ir: 0.00656 / 0.00656 = 1

O: 0.0131 / 0.00656 = 2

=> Empirical formula = Ir O2 (where 2 is the superscript for O)

Answer: Ir O2

Covalent bonded atoms make up what
White raven [17]
In a covalent bond, the atoms bond by sharing electrons. Covalent bonds usually occur between nonmetals. For example, in water (H2O) each hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) share a pair of electrons to make a molecule of two hydrogen atoms single bonded to a single oxygen atom.

What quantity of heat is required to raise the temperature of 460g of aluminum from 15C to 85C?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Q = 28.9 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Aluminium, m = 460 g

Initial temperature, T_i=15^{\circ} C

Final temperature, T_f=85^{\circ}

We know that the specific heat of Aluminium is 0.9 J/g°C. The heat required to raise the temperature is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T\\\\Q=mc(T_f-T_i)\\\\Q=460\ g\times 0.9\ J/g^{\circ} C\times (85-15)^{\circ} C\\\\Q=28980\ J\\\\\text{or}\\\\Q=28.9\ kJ

So, 28.9 kJ of heat is required to raise the temperature.

• How did your experimental absolute zero value compare to the accepted value?
Murrr4er [49]

The experimental absolute zero value is less when compared to the accepted value of absolute zero.

<h3>What is absolute zero?</h3>

Absolute zero is defined as the temperature in which the lowest energy possible is attained in a thermodynamic system.

Absolute zero temperature has an accepted values of 0 Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius.

At absolute zero, it is assumed that the volume of an ideal gas becomes zero. However, it has not been possible to cool any gas to absolute zero.

Based on the graph of temperature against volume of gases, the experimental absolute zero extrapolated from the graph where volume of the gases becomes zero is -285 degrees Celsius.

Therefore, the experimental absolute zero value is less when compared to the accepted value.
