How many oxygen atoms are in 2.80 g of quartz?

Chemistry
1 answer:
disa [49]3 years ago
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

A chemist takes 50-gram sample of sulfur powder that has a melting point of 115.2 °C. What is the melting point of a 100-gram sa
Viktor [21]

Answer:

115.2 °C since melting point is an intensive property  

Step-by-step explanation:

The melting point of a substance does not depend on how much you have.

For example, the melting point of water is 0 °C, whether it is an ice cube from the refrigerator or in the frozen pond outside.

The freezing point of a substance is an <em>intensive property</em>.

Thus, the melting point of 100 g of sulfur is 115.2 °C because melting point in an intensive property.

What happens to a glass of water as the average molecular kinetic energy of the water molecules increases?
trasher [3.6K]
"The water becomes warmer."
<u>Remember</u>: Kinetic energy means how much, on average, a molecule is moving around. This is directly translated into heat. Therefore, the higher the kinetic energy, the more heat produced.
