user100 [1]
Let MM(x) be the molar mass of x.

MM(Pb) : MM(PbO)
=207.21 : 223.20  =  451.4 g : x g

cross multiply and solve for x
x=223.2/207.21*451.4
= 486.23 g

Percentage yield = 365.0/486.23= 0.75067 = 75.07% (rounded to 4 sign. fig.)

Why is melting ice cream a physical?
worty [1.4K]

Melting ice cream is a physical change because it is a phase change, the water in the ice cream gains thermal energy and the inter-molecular forces are overcome and the molecules move further apart forming a liquid. It is not a chemical change because no chemical reactions occurred.

A 1.0 g sample of hydrogen reacts completely with 19.0 g of fluorine to form a compound of hydrogen and fluorine. a. What is the
Rashid [163]

Explanation:tr

a) Molar mass of HF = 20 g/mol

Atomic mass of hydrogen = 1 g/mol

Atomic mass of fluorine = 19 g/mol

Percentage of an element in a compound:

\frac{\text{Number of atoms of element}\times \text{Atomic mass of element}}{\text{Molar mass of compound }}\times 100

Percentage of fluorine:

\frac{1\times 19 g/mol}{20g/mol}\times 100=95\%

Percentage of hydrogen:

\frac{1\times 1g/mol}{20 g/mol}\times 100=5\%

b) Mass of hydrogen in 50 grams of HF sample.

Moles of HF = \frac{50 g}{20 g/mol}=2.5 mol

1 mole of HF has 1 mole of hydrogen atom.

Then 2.5 moles of HF will have:

1\times 2.5 mol=2.5 mol of hydrogen atom.

Mass of 2.5 moles of hydrogen atom:

1 g/mol × 2.5 mol = 2.5 g

2.5 grams of hydrogen would be present in a 50 g sample of this compound.

c) As we solved in part (a) that HF molecules has 5% of hydrogen by mass.

Then mass of hydrogen in 50 grams of HF compound we will have :

5% of 50 grams of HF = \frac{5}{100}\times 50 g=2.5 g

Please help I don't understand this question
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The answer will be C. Variable

Explanation:

The answer will be C because A response is a reactant for the plant and the question is asking about the light. B is incorrect because stimulus is how a plant reacts to nature for example gravitrophism and  thingatropism also its asking about the light not the plant. D is incorrect because... come on now does it even make sense XD

Hope this helps
