Which pair of elements do you expect to be most similar in their chemical properties?

Assume that coal can be represented by the chemical formula C135H96O9NS. If 4.0 tons of coal is burned, what mass of nitrogen is

Schach [20]

Answer:

0.02 tons of NO produced when 4 tons of coal is burned

Explanation:

From the given,

Chemical formula of coal = $C_{134}H_{96}O_{9}NS$

Molecular mass of coal = $(134\times12)+(9\times1)+(9\times16)+14+32\,=1906.1gm$

Let’s calculate the mass of nitrogen in coal

$Percentage\,weight\,of\,nitrogen=\frac{Mass\,of\,nitrogen}{Molecular\,mass\,of coal}$

$Percentage\,weight/,of/,nitrogen=\frac{14}{1906.1}=0.73%$

Amount of coal burnt = 4tons

Amount of NO produced by burning 4tons = $4\,tons\,of\,coal\times \frac{0.73tons}{100\,tons\,of\,coal}=0.0292\,tons$

This nitrogen is converted into NO by reacting with atmospheric oxygen.

Antimony has two naturally occuring isotopes, 121 Sb and 123 Sb . 121 Sb has an atomic mass of 120.9038 u , and 123 Sb has an at

valina [46]

Answer:

Percentage abundance of 121 Sb is = 57.2 %

Percentage abundance of 123 Sb is = 42.8 %

Explanation:

The formula for the calculation of the average atomic mass is:

$Average\ atomic\ mass=(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ first\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ first\ isotope})+(\frac {\%\ of\ the\ second\ isotope}{100}\times {Mass\ of\ the\ second\ isotope})$

Given that:

Since the element has only 2 isotopes, so the let the percentage of first be x and the second is 100 -x.

For first isotope, 121 Sb :

% = x %

Mass = 120.9038 u

For second isotope, 123 Sb:

% = 100 - x

Mass = 122.9042 u

Given, Average Mass = 121.7601 u

Thus,

$121.7601=\frac{x}{100}\times 120.9038+\frac{100-x}{100}\times 122.9042$

$120.9038x+122.9042\left(100-x\right)=12176.01$

Solving for x, we get that:

x = 57.2 %

<u>Thus, percentage abundance of 121 Sb is = 57.2 % </u>

<u>percentage abundance of 123 Sb is = 100 - 57.2 % = 42.8 %</u>

Which best describes how a fetus exchanges gases while in the womb?

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

C. Gas exchange occurs through the placenta.

Explanation:

The fetus is a developing baby in the womb or uterus. The fetus is incapable of performing certain life processes itself and hence, depends on the mother to do them. One of these processes is GAS EXCHANGE. Gas exchange occurs in the fetus via a structure called PLACENTA.

Placenta is a structure that forms in the uterus during pregnancy. It helps the developing fetus supply oxygen and nutrients from the mother and also remove wastes from the fetus back to the mother. The oxygen is taken into the fetus via the PLACENTA while the carbon dioxide (waste product of respiration) is removed via the PLACENTA. Hence, Gas exchange occurs through the placenta.
