Percent composition by mass is calculated (mass of element within compound)/(mass of compound)*100. The lower the total molar mass of the compound, the greater the percent composition of sulfur. In this case, MgS would be that compound, since Mg has the lowest molar mass of the four elements bonded to S.
Atoms of sulfur = 9.60⋅g32.06⋅g⋅mol−1×6.022×1023⋅mol−1 . Because the units all cancel out, the answer is clearly a number, ≅2×1023 as required.
Answer:
ΔH for formation of 197g Fe⁰ = 1.503 x 10³ Kj => Answer choice 'B'
Explanation:
Given Fe₂O₃(s) + 2Al⁰(s) => Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe⁰(s) + 852Kj
197g Fe⁰ = (197g/55.85g/mol) = 3.527 mol Fe⁰(s)
From balanced standard equation 2 moles Fe⁰(s) => 852Kj, then ...
3.527 mole yield (a higher mole value) => (3.527/2) x 852Kj = 1,503Kj (a higher enthalpy value).
______
NOTE => If 2 moles Fe gives 852Kj (exo) as specified in equation, then a <u>higher energy value</u> would result if the moles of Fe⁰(s) is <u>higher than 2 moles</u>. The ratio of 3.638/2 will increase the listed equation heat value to a larger number because 197g Fe⁰(s) contains more than 2 moles of Fe⁰(s) => 3.527 mole Fe(s) in 197g. Had the problem asked for the heat loss from <u>less than two moles Fe⁰(s)</u> - say 100g Fe⁰(s) (=1.79mole Fe⁰(s)) - then one would use the fractional ratio (1.79/2) to reduce the enthalpy value less than 852Kj.
There are 1000 meters in 1 Kilometer.
Hope this helps you. :)
