How many oxygen atoms are in 2.80 g of quartz?

1 answer:

4 0

The chemical formula for quartz is SiO₂
Percentage by mass of oxygen = (2 x 16) x 100 / (28 + 2 x 16)
Percentage by mass of oxygen = 53.3%

Mass of oxygen in sample = 0.533 x 2.8
Mass of oxygen = 1.49 grams

Moles of oxygen = 1.49 / 16
Moles = 0.093

One mole contains 6.02 x 10²³ particles
Thus, the atoms of oxygen:
0.093 x 6.02 x 10²³
= 5.6 x 10²²

How do I identify the ions present in K2HPO4?

ipn [44]

In any compound there are two types of ions are present, cations and anions. Cations are positively charged ions and formed by losing electrons and anions are formed by gaining electrons and are negatively charged ions.
So, in K₂HPO₄, there are positive charged and negative charged ions are present. so there is K⁺ ion and HPO₄⁻² ion is present in K₂HPO₄
