If 16.4 grams of calcium nitrate is heated as shown in the reaction:
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

7.2

Explanation:

you first have to find the number of moles of nitrogen dioxide by using the number of moles for calcium nitrate and the mole to mole ratios

number of moles of calcium nitrate=mass/mm

=16.4/102

=0.16g/mol

then you use the mole to mole ratios

2 : 4

0.16: x

2x/2=0.64/2

x=0.32g/moles of nitrogen dioxide

then you use the formula for the volume

v=22.4n

=22.4×0.32

=7.2

I hope this helps

a chemist is studying an unknown substance he can break it into its elemental only by using chemical means.Based on this observa
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Compound

Explanation:

We want to know if it's a compound or a mixture.

An example of a mixture is salt water: you can heat it hot enough to boil off the water, leaving only the salt. This is a physical change, which is how you know it's a mixture.

Something like gold is a compound: if you heat it, or hit it, you'll still only have gold. You can only break it down by chemical means, which is how you know it's a compound.

A compound contains 74.2 g Na and 25.8 g O. Determine the Empirical Formula for this compound
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The empirical formula for the compound is Na2O

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Sodium (Na) = 74.2g

Oxygen (O) = 25.8g

We can obtain the empirical formula for the compound as follow:

First, divide the above by their individual molar mass as shown below:

Na = 74.2/23 = 3.226

O = 25.8/16 = 1.613

Next, divide the above by the smallest number

Na = 3.226/1.613 = 2

O = 1.613/1.613 = 1

Therefore, the empirical formula is:

Na2O

This chemical reaction can also be written as

2C2H6+7O2-->4CO2+6H2O

This is a chemical reaction because reactants are converted into products. This is the combustion of ethane where ethane and oxygen have been converted into carbon dioxide and water
