Total mass of oxide z2o3 is 0.797g 
 mass of element z in the oxide is 0.422g 
 therefore, mass of oxygen in the oxide is 0.797 - 0.422 = 0.375 g   
 Number of moles of oxygen in the oxide = 0.375/16 = 0.02344 (atomic mass
of oxygen=16)   
 From the given chemical formula of oxide, we know that, the element z and
oxygen are in the ratio of 2:3. So, number of moles of z is 0.02344 *2/3 =
0.015625 
 Hence, atomic mass of z should be = 0.422/0.015625 = 27   
 Element with atomic mass 27 is Aluminium. The oxide is Al2o3

the air pressure from the atmosphere measures 0.5atm at an altitude of 18,000 ft. How much pressure is this in pounds per square
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

7.5 pounds per square-inch

At sea level, one square-inch of any surface has about 15 pounds of air sitting on top of it. At 18,000 feet, that same square inch has only 7.5 pounds per square-inch (psi) exerted on it.

Why does sugar dissolve faster than salt
Usimov [2.4K]

☁️ Answer ☁️

Option 1: When dissolved, sugar molecules have more opportunities to bond with positive-negative water molecules. Therefore, sugar dissolves faster than salt, because its component molecules are more soluble in water.

❤️

Option 2: Sugar can dissolve easier than salt because when you add 8 spoons of salt into water the salt already starts to stay in the bottom of the cup. And, when you add 30 spoons into water the sugar just starts to stay in the bottom of the cup. It’s almost the same.

Hope it helps.

Have a nice day!~  ̄▽ ̄❤️
