Answer:
Explanation:
Your goal here is to figure out the mass of iron and the mass of sulfur present in exactly
100 g
of this compound, which is what you need in order to know the compound's percent composition.
The problem provides you with the mass of iron and with the mass of sulfur present in
27.9 g
of this compound, so you must use this information to scale up your sample from
27.9 g
to
100 g
.
To do that, set up the known composition of the compound as a conversion factor.
To find the number of grams of iron present in
100 g
of compound, set up the conversion factor like this
17.6 g iron
27.9 g compound
You will end up with
100
g compound
⋅
17.6 giron
27.9
g compound
=
63.1 g iron
To find the mass of sulfur present in
100 g
of compound, you can either use a conversion factor set up in a similar manner
100
g compound
⋅
10.3 g sulfur
27.9
g compound
=
36.9 g sulfur
or use the fact that the compound contains only iron and sulfur to say that the mass of sulfur will be equal to
100 g compound
−
63.1 g iron = 36.9 g sulfur
You now know the mass of iron and the mass of sulfur present for every
100 g
of compound, so you can say that the compound has the following percent composition
63.1% iron
36.9% sulfur
Here
%
means per
100 g
of compound.
Answer:
C.) 2,1,2
Explanation:
You have to balance the equation by getting the number of elements on the left and right side to equal. Before balancing there is one more oxygen on the left side than the right side. You have to change the coefficient in front of H2O to fix this, and that means adding a "2" in front of the H2 to get that to equal as well.
You end up with 2H₂+10₂→ 2H₂O
Okay give me a few minutes and I will send u a screen shot of my answers.
Answer:
Well, electrons can be converted into a atomic number so if SE atomic number is 34 that means it has 34 electrons. AI has a atomic number of 13 meaning it has 13 electrons. So the difference is that SE has more electrons then AI.
