The percent composition of the compound is 79.87 % of carbon and 20.12% of hydrogen

Explanation:

Given:

mass of carbon = 13.18 grams

mass of hydrogen = 3.32 grams

percent composition of compound =?

From the given data total mass of the compound is calculated

13.8 + 3.32

= 16.5 grams

The individual percentage of hydrogen and carbon will be calculated as:

percent composition  = \frac{individual mass of the element}{total mass of the compound} x 100

For carbon,

 \frac{13.18}{16.5}x 100

percent composition of carbon = 79.87 % of carbon.

for hydrogen:

\frac{3.32}{16.5}

= 20.12 % of hydrogen

In the compound given 79.87 % of carbon and 20.12% of hydrogen is present.

What is the mass of 2.50 moles of NaCl
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The mass of 2,50 moles of NaCl is 146, 25 g.

Explanation:

First we calculate the mass of 1 mol of NaCl, starting from the atomic weights of Na and Cl obtained from the periodic table. Then we calculate the mass of 2.50 moles of compound, making a simple rule of three:

Weight NaCl= Weight Na + Weight Cl=  23 g+ 35,5 g= 58, 5 g/ mol

1 mol ------ 58, 5 g

2,5 mol---x= (2,5 mol x 58, 5 g)/ 1 mol = <u>146, 25 g</u>
