Calcium carbonate has the formula: CaCO3
From the periodic table:
mass of calcium = 40 grams
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Therefore,
molar mass of CaCO3 = 40 + 12 + 3(16) = 100 grams
molar mass of carbonate = 12 + 3(16) = 60 grams
One mole of calcium carbonate contains one mole of carbonate. Therefore, 100 grams of CaCO3 contains 60 grams of CO3.
If the 0.5376 grams of the unknown substance is CaCO3, then the amount of carbonate will be:
amount of carbonate = (0.5376*60) / 100 = 0.32256 grams
Based on the above calculations, the sample is not CaCO3
Relatively few hydrogen atoms
The fire that burned the chip is thermal energy.
Mass= number of moles multiply Mass of one mole
= 24.3 multiplied by 4
= 96.2
Answer:
16.5 days
Explanation:
Given that:
Half life = 26.5 days
Where, k is rate constant
So,
The rate constant, k = 0.02616 days⁻¹
Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:
Where,
is the concentration at time t
is the initial concentration
Given:
35.0 % is decomposed which means that 0.35 of
is decomposed. So,
= 1 - 0.35 = 0.65
t = 7.8 min
<u>t = 16.5 days.</u>
