Write the formula of the compound.
Write the numbers of each atom in the formula. Insert the relative atomic mass for each type of atom. Calculate the total mass for each element.
Add up the total mass for the compound.

What is the percent composition of phosphoric acid (H3PO4)?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

H3PO4 Mol mass..

= (3 x H1 = 3) + (1 x P31 = 31) + (4 x O16 = 64). = 98g/mol.

a)..Hydrogen: = 3 / 98 = 0.0306 x 100% = 3.06%.

b)..Phosphorus = 31/98 = 0.3162 x 100% = 31.63%.

c)..Oxygen = 64/98 = 0.6531 x 100% = 65.31%.

(Total = 100% H3PO4).

Explanation:

Find the molar mass of all the elements in the compound in grams per mole.

Find the molecular mass of the entire compound.

Divide the component's molar mass by the entire molecular mass.

You will now have a number between 0 and 1. Multiply it by 100% to get percent composition.

Which quantity can be calculated using the equation E=MC^2
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The energy needed to split an atom into separate protons, neutrons, and electrons

Explanation:

The equation E = MC^2 is developed by Einstein’s Special Relativity Theory

where,

E = Energy

M = mass

C = speed of the light

The energy should be measured in Joules i.e J

The mass should be measured in Kilogram i.e Kg

And, the speed of the light should be measured in meters per second i.e ms-1

The C should be squared

Now the energy is required to divided into three particles i.e protons, electrons and neutrons

It also needs to allocate the nucleus into distinct protons and neutrons that we called binding energy of nuclear

And if the energy is required to take off an electron from an atom we called the energy of ionization

And if the energy is required to add an electron to an atom so we called it affinity of electron

Consider the following reaction:
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

1.2 M

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reversible reaction.

CuS(s) + O₂(g) ⇌ Cu(s) + SO₂(g)

To find the equilibrium concentration of O₂ we will use an ICE Chart. We will only consider gases and aqueous species since the activity of solids and liquids is 1.

    CuS(s) + O₂(g) ⇌ Cu(s) + SO₂(g)

I                    2.9                      0

C                    -x                      +x

E                  2.9-x                     x

The equilibrium constant (Kc) is:

Kc=1.5=\frac{[SO_{2}]}{[O_{2}]} =\frac{x}{2.9-x} \\x=1.7

The concentration of O₂ at equilibrium is:

[O₂] = 2.9 -x = 2.9 - 1.7 = 1.2 M
