Carbon forms two oxides in which the weight of oxygen combines with 1 g of carbon

Answer:

This is based on the masses of one element, that will be combined with a fixed mass of the other element.

Explanation:

This is based on the masses of one element, that will be combined with a fixed mass of the other element. Thoses masses are in a ratio.

This state we can find in 'The Law of Multiple Proportions, which is part of Dalton's atomic theory

We see that in the 2 compounds, the masses of oxygen, that combine with a fixed mass of carbon , will be in proportion.

For the first oxide we have 1g carbon per 1.33 g Carbon

1g /1.33g  = 0.752

For the second oxide we have 1g carbon per 2.66g Carbon

1g/2.66g = 0.376

Dividing the mass O per g C of the second (larger value) compound:

2.66 / 1.33 = 2   which is the same as 0.752 / 0.376

thus, it means that the masses of oxygen that combine with carbon are in a 2:1 ratio.

How many grams of o2 are in a 5.0 mol of the oxygen gas?
allsm [11]
We are tasked to find the amount of O2 in grams given only the number of moles of oxygen gas. To solve the problem, we need first to calculate the molecular weight of oxygen. Based on the periodic table, elemental oxygen has a molecular weight of 16 g/mol. Thus its molecular weight is,
O2=16.0g/mol (2)=32 g/mol

To solve for the amount of compound oxygen in grams, we have,
O2 (g)=5 mol x 32 g/mol =160 g.

This cancel out the mols both in the numerator and denominator leaving only the g as a unit. Therefore, 5 mols of oxygen is equal to 160 g of oxygen.

Answer:

To plot a graph, you put the independent variable on the y-axis and the dependent on the x-axis. This might sound really hard, but it's not.

A dependent variable is something that is changed by other factors. For example, in this question, the temperature is dependent on the time. You can't change time by temperature, it's impossible. But you CAN change temperature by the more time that goes by. This makes Time independent and Temperature Independent.

You write the graph so that Time (1-10) goes up the side (the y-axis), starting from the bottom left (this point is called the origin). Then you write the Temperature on the bottom, from left to right. The numbers you are given have to have the same amount of points (the little squares you see) in between them, and you have to be able to fit all of the numbers on the graph.

The last step is to plot the points on the graph so they match up. If the time is 1, then you go to where the time says one and move over to the right to where it is the correct temperature. That is where you put your point. You keep doing this until you have all the points plotted and you can connect the dots.
