hjlf3 years ago
3 0

 

We know that Zinc (Zn) has a molar mass of 65.39 g/mol. Hence the remaining is:

136.28 - 65.39=70.89 

While molar mass of Chlorine (Cl) is 35.453 g/mol .

70.89 / 35.453 =2 => Cl 

 

<span>So the formula is ZnCl2</span>

An oxide of aluminum contains 0.545 g of Al and 0.485 g of O. Find the empirical formula
uysha [10]

Answer:

The answer is: <u>Al2O3</u>

Explanation:

The data they give us is:

  • 0.545 gr Al
  • 0.485 gr O.

To find the empirical formula without knowing the grams of the compound, we find it per mole:

  • 0.545 g Al * 1 mol Al / 27 g Al = 0.02 mol Al
  • 0.485 g O * 1 mol O / 16 g O = 0.03 mol O

Then we must divide the results obtained by the lowest result, which in this case is 0.02:

  • 0.02 mol Al / 0.02 = 1  Al
  • 0.03 mol O / 0.02 = 1.5  O

Since both numbers have to give an integer, multiply by 2 until both remain integers:

  • 1Al * 2 = 2Al
  • 1.5O * 2 = 3O

Now the answer is given correctly:

  • Al2O3

Fission and fusion are alike in many ways. However, one difference is
Annette [7]

Explanation:

Fusion vs Fission

In fission, energy is gained by splitting apart heavy atoms, for example uranium, into smaller atoms such as iodine, caesium, strontium, xenon and barium, to name just a few. However, fusion is combining light atoms, for example two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, to form the heavier helium. Both reactions release energy which, in a power plant, would be used to boil water to drive a steam generator, thus producing electricity.

What happens when energy is removed from liquid water
mariarad [96]

Answer:

When energy is removed in liquid water then it will solidify since heat is given off by the system to its surrounding. It is an exothermic process where the enthalpy decreases since heat is taken off. So liquid water becomes ice in an exothermic process.
