<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option E.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given a chemical compound having formula Ni(CO)_4

In 1 mole of the compound, 1 mole of nickel atom, 4 moles of carbon atom and 4 moles of oxygen atom are present.

According to mole concept:

1 mole of a substance contains 6.022\time 10^{23} number of particles

Number of carbon atoms in compound = 4\times 6.022\times 10^{23}

Number of nickel atoms in compound = 1\times 6.022\times 10^{23}

We are given:

Number of carbon atoms = 5.23\times 10^{24}

To calculate the number of nickel atoms for given amount of carbon atom, we use unitary method:

When 4\times 6.022\times 10^{23} number of carbon atoms are present, then 6.022\times 10^{23} number of nickel atoms are also present.

So, when 5.23\times 10^{24} number of carbon atoms are present, then \frac{4\times 6.022\times 10^{23}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\times 5.23\times 10^{24}=1.31\times 10^{24} number of nickel atoms are also present.

Hence, the correct answer is Option E.

In Ni(CO)₄ the stoichiometry of Ni to C is 1:4
for every 4 atoms of C is attached to one Ni atom.
this means that if there are 4 atoms of C - 1 atom of Ni
in 5.23 x 10²⁴ atoms of C -1/4 x 5.23 x 10²⁴ atoms of Ni
                                        = 1.3075 x 10²⁴ atoms of Ni
the number of atoms rounded off to the second decimal place = 1.31 x 10²⁴ atoms 
correct answer is E

If you have a density of 100 kg/L and a mass of 1000 g what is the volume (please explain)
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:  Volume =  0.01L

Explanation:

The density of a substance is given by; Density =  Mass / Volume.

In this question, Mass = 1000g, Volume = ? and Density = 100 Kg/L

For the units to be uniform, we convert 1000g to Kg = 1Kg

Therefore, Volume = Mass / Density =  1Kg / 100Kg/L = 0.01L

You make an experiment to determine the percent mass of carbon in sugar. You find out that there is 46.63g of carbon in 75.00g o
Aleksandr [31]

Taking into account the definition of percentage composition, the percent composition of carbon in this sample is 62.17%.

<h3>Percentage composition</h3>

The Percentage Composition is a measure of the amount of mass that an element occupies in a compound and indicates the percentage by mass of each element that is part of a compound.

Then, the percentage by mass expresses the concentration and indicates the amount of mass of solute present in 100 grams of solution.

In other words, the percentage by mass of a component of the solution is defined as the ratio of the mass of the solute to the mass of the solution, expressed as a percentage.

The percentage by mass is calculated as the mass of the solute divided by the mass of the solution, the result of which is multiplied by 100 to give a percentage. This is:

percentageby mass= \frac{mass of solute}{mass of solution}x100

<h3>This case</h3>

In this case, you know:

  • mass of solute= 46.63 g
  • mass of solution= 75 g

Replacing:

percentageby mass= \frac{46.63 g}{75 g}x100

Solving:

<u><em>percentage by mass= 62.17 %</em></u>

Finally, the percent composition of carbon in this sample is 62.17%.
