4 0

Explanation:

It is known that in a simple cubic unit cell the atoms are only present at the corner of the unit cell. This means that there are in total 8 atoms present in a simple cubic unit cell.

Therefore, in one simple cubic unit cell sharing of one atom is only \frac{1}{8}.

Hence, the total number of atoms in a unit cell will be as follows.

            8 \times \frac{1}{8} = 1

Thus, we can conclude that there is 1 calcium atom present in each unit cell.

What is the percent composition of N H S O in (NH4)2SO4
Lena [83]

Answer:

The percent composition is 21% N, 6% H, 24% S and 49% O.

Explanation:

1st) The molar mass of (NH4)2SO4 is 132g/mol, and it represents the 100% of the mass composition.

In 1 mole of (NH4)2SO4, there are:

- 2 moles of N.

- 8 moles of H.

- 1 mole of S.

- 4 moles of O.

2nd) It is necessary to calculate the mass of each element, multiplying its molar mass by the number of moles:

- 2 moles of N (14g/mol) = 28g

- 8 moles of H (1g/mol) = 8g

- 1 mole of S (32g/mol) = 32g

- 4 moles of O (16g/mol) = 64g

3rd) With a mathematical rule of three we can calculate the percent composition of each element in the molecule of (NH4)2SO4:

\begin{gathered} \text{ Nitrogen:} \\ 132g-100\% \\ 28g-x=\frac{28g*100\%}{132g} \\ x=21\% \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} \text{ Hydrogen:} \\ 132g-100\operatorname{\%} \\ 8g-x=\frac{8g*100\operatorname{\%}}{132g} \\ x=6\% \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} \text{ Sulfur:} \\ 132g-100\operatorname{\%} \\ 32g-x=\frac{32g*100\operatorname{\%}}{132g} \\ x=24\% \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} \text{ Oxygen:} \\ 100\%-21\%-6\%-24\%=49\% \\  \\  \end{gathered}

In this case, we can calculate the percent composition of Oxygen by subtracting the other percentages, since the total must be 100%.

So, the percent composition is 21% N, 6% H, 24% S and 49% O.
