Answer:

This question is incomplete. The completed question is below

Which expression represents the percent by mass of nitrogen in NH4NO3?

A) 14 g N/80 g NH₄ NO₃ ₓ 100%

B) 28 g N/80 g NH₄ NO₃ ₓ 100%

C) 80 g NH₄ NO₃ /14 g N ₓ 100%

D) 80 g NH₄ NO₃ /28 g N ₓ 100%

The correct option is B

Explanation:

To calculate the percentage by mass of nitrogen in the compound, the formula will be

total mass of nitrogen/total mass of compound    × 100

Atomic mass of nitrogen (N) is 14 g/mol

There are 2 nitrogen atoms present in the compound as highlighted below

<u><em>Total mass of nitrogen</em></u> (N) present in NH₄ NO₃ = 14 × 2 = 28g

Atomic mass of hydrogen (H) is 1 g/mol. There are 4 hydrogen atoms present in the compound, NH₄NO₃.

Atomic mass of oxygen (O) is 16 g/mol. There are 3 oxygen atoms present in the compound, NH₄NO₃

<u><em>Total mass of the compound</em></u> =

(14 × 2) + (1 ×4) + (16 × 3) = 80g

Hence, the percentage by mass of nitrogen in the compound (as shown in the formula earlier) is

28g of N/80g of NH₄NO₃ × 100%

W(N)={2M(N)/M(NH₄NO₃)}*100%

w(N)={2*14.0 g/mol/80.0 g/mol}*100% = 35%

In ironmaking, iron metal can be separated from iron ore (Fe2O3) by heating the ore in a blast furnace in the presence of coke,
mel-nik [20]

The limiting reactant is iron ore, the theoretical yield of iron metal is 701.344 kg, and the theoretical yield of carbon dioxide is 413.292 kg.

<h3>Stoichiometric problem</h3>

From the equation of the reaction:

2 Fe_2O_3(s) + 3 C(s) --- > 4 Fe(s) + 3 CO_2(g)

The mole ratio of iron ore to carbon is 2:3.

Mole of 1000 kg of iron ore = 1000000/159.69

                                          = 6,262 moles

Mole of 120 kg carbon = 120000/12

                                 = 10,000 moles

Thus, it appears that the carbon is in excess while the iron ore is limited in availability.

The mole ratio of the iron ore and the iron produced is 1:2. Thus, the equivalent number of moles of iron produced will be:

              6,262 x 2 = 12,524 moles

Mass of 12,524 moles of iron = 12,524 x 56

                                                = 701,344 g or 701.344 kg

Thus, the theoretical yield of iron is 701.344 kg.

The mole ratio of the iron ore and the carbon dioxide produced is 2:3. The equivalent mole of carbon dioxide produced will be:

         6,262 x 3/2 = 9,393 moles

Mass of 9,393 moles carbon dioxide = 9,393 x 44

                                                         = 413,292 or 413.292 kg

The theoretical yield of carbon dioxide is, therefore, 413.292 kg.

Jot down the formula of the ionic compound. Let's say the ionic compound you're working with is NaCl.  

Write the name of the metal.

Add the name of the non-metal with an –ide ending.

Combine the cation and anion names.

Practice naming more simple ionic compounds.

Name the types of radiation known to be emitted by radioactive elements.
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer : The types of radiation known to be emitted by radioactive elements are, alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays.

Explanation :

Radioactive decay : It the process in which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by emitting the radiations like, alpha particles, beta particles, or gamma rays.

The naturally occurring radioactive elements are, radium, thorium, and uranium.

Alpha particle : It is also known as alpha radiation or alpha ray that consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons that are bound together into a particle that is identical to the helium nucleus. It is produced in the process of alpha decay.

Beta particle : It is also known as beta radiation or beta ray. During the beta decay process, a high energy and speed electron or positron are emitted by the radioactive decay of atomic nucleus.

Gamma particle : It is also a gamma radiation or gamma ray that is arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. It has shortest wavelength waves and imparts high photon energy can pass through most forms of matters because they have no mass.

On average, Earth’s crust contains about 8.1% aluminum by mass. If a standard 12-ounce soft drink can contains approximately 15
MrMuchimi

Answer:

5400 cans

Explanation:

First we convert the total weight, 1 ton, to grams:

1ton=1x10^{6}g

Now we need to know the mass of aluminum:

m_{Al}=\frac{10^{6}*8.1}{100} =81000g

Now we make the relation between the mass of aluminum in 1 ton of the earth's crust and the mass of aluminum per can:

n=\frac{81000g}{15g/can} =5400cans
