For the answer to the question above, the number of naturally occurring elements is actually in dispute, believe it or not. Some say 98, others say 88 and all cite various reasons. The traditionally accepted answer would be 92.
I hope this helps.

The elements lithium and oxygen react explosively to from lithium oxide (Li2O). How much lithium oxide will form if 3.03 mol of

lianna [129]

The reaction equation:
2Li + O → Li₂O

Molar ratio of Li to Li₂O is:
2 : 1
So if 3.03 moles of Li are present:
2/1 = 3.03 / x
x = 1.515 moles of Li₂O will be produced.

A compound is found to contain 42.88 % carbon and 57.12 % oxygen by weight. To answer the questions, enter the elements in the o

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

The empirical formule is CO

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Suppose the mass of a compound is 100 grams

Suppose the compound contains:

42.88 % C = 42.88 grams C

57.12 % O = 57.12 grams O

Molar mass C = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass O = 16.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles C = mass C / molar mass C

Moles C = 42.88 grams / 12.01 g/mol

Moles C = 3.57 moles

Moles O = 57.12 grams / 16.0 g/mol

Moles O = 3.57 moles

Step 3: Calculate the mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

C: 3.57 moles / 3.57 moles = 1

O: 3.57 moles / 3.57 moles = 1

The empirical formule is CO

When using 100ml or 50ml graduated cylinder to what decimal place can your volume be estimated?<br>

Olegator [25]

Answer:

I know that the 100-mL graduated cylinders are always read to 1 decimal place.

I think for 50 mL graduated cylinders, it lets you measure volumes up to 50.0 mL to the nearest 0.1 or 0.2 mL, depending on your exact cylinder.
