For us to accurately determine what compound this is, additional info must be given. However I can suggest two compounds which have molecular mass of about 30.07 g/mol.

1. It could be NO or nitric oxide.

The molecular mass is 16 + 14= 30 g/mol

But if we search the exact weight, it is 30.01 g/mol

 

2. It could also be (CH3)2  or ethane.

The molecular mass is 2*12+ 6*1= 30 g/mol

But if we search the exact weight, it is 30.07 g/mol.

 

<span>So we could say it more likely to to be (CH3)2 </span>

For the following reaction, 4.34 grams of sulfur dioxide are mixed with excess oxygen gas . The reaction yields 3.89 grams of su
Degger [83]

Answer:

5.42g, 71.77%

Explanation:

First, we have to write out the balanced chemical equation. The unbalanced equation can be written as “SO2+O2 -> SO3” and to balance it, we can see that having two mols of SO2 and two mols of SO3 will make each side have the same amount of mols per element on each side. So the balanced chemical equation is “2SO2 + O2 -> 2SO3”

Now, we want to solve for the theoretical yield in grams of SO3. To do this, we have to use dimensional analysis. We convert g SO2 into mols SO2 using the molar mass of the elements. Then we convert mols of SO2 into mols of SO3 using the balanced equation. Once we’ve done that, we can convert mols of SO3 into grams of SO3.

You should know how to look up the molar mass of elements on the periodic table by now. Find the masses and set up the terms so they cancel like so:

4.34g \times  \frac{1mol \: so2}{64.07g \: so2}  \times  \frac{2 \: mol \: so3}{2 \: mol \: so2}  \times  \frac{80.07gso3}{1 \: mol \: so3}

Doing the math, we get 5.42g so3 as the theoretical yield. This is the most amount that you could ever get if the world was a perfect place. But alas, it isn’t and mistakes are gonna happen, so the number is going to be less than that. So the best we can do, is to figure out the percent yield that we got.

In a lab scenario, this was calculated to be 3.89 g as stated by the problem. The percent composition formula is

| \frac{result}{expected \: result} |  \times 100

and plugging the numbers into it, we get:

| \frac{3.89}{5.42} |  \times 100 = 71.77\%

make sure to follow the decimal/significant figure rules of your instructor, but only round at the end. My professor didn't care too much thankfully, but some professors do

Summarize at least three steps needed to carry out Galileo's famous experiment to determine whether heavier objects
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to legend, Galileo dropped weights off of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, showing that gravity causes objects of different masses to fall with the same acceleration. In recent years, researchers have taken to replicating this test in a way that the Italian scientist probably never envisioned — by dropping atoms. One of Galileo's contributions to the founding of modern science was his study of falling objects.  He turned, then, to measuring the acceleration of objects rolling down smooth ramps. The ramp "diluted" the acceleration to a value small enough to allow accurate measurements of the longer time intervals.

The electronegativity values of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen are compared in the table.
Fofino [41]

Answer:

C. CH₄ is less than NH₃ because the NH bond is more polar than the CH bond

Explanation:

The intermolecular forces between ammonia is far stronger than for methane. Between the molecules of ammonia we have the presence of hydrogen bonds. This bond is absent in methane.

Hydrogen bonds are one of the strongest intermolecular forces. It is as a result of the electrostatic attraction between the hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom N, O and F of another molecule.

  • This strong interaction is absent in methane which has just dipole - dipole attraction.

The strength of the hydrogen bond depends on the electronegativity of the combining atoms.

Explain how you would convert the moles of a compound to the made (grams) of the same compound<br>​
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

see notes below

Explanation:

The mole is the mass of substance containing 1 Avogadro's Number of particles. That is, 1 mole substance = 1 formula weight. For elements, 1 mole weight is equal to the atomic weight expressed as grams. For molecules, 1 mole weight is equal to the molecular weight expressed as grams.

1 mole = 1 formula weight

<u>Moles to Grams and Grams to Moles</u>

Grams => Moles

Given grams, moles = mass given / formula weight

*Ask the question => How many formula weights are there in the given mass? => Results is always moles.

Moles => Grams

Given moles,  grams = moles given X formula weight

*Summary

Grams to Moles => divide by formula weight

Moles to Grams => multiply by formula weight
