Answer:

The empirical formula is = $NiO$

Explanation:

Given that:- Mass of nickel = 2.241 g

Mass of the oxide formed = 2.852 g

Mass of the oxygen reacted = Mass of the oxide formed - Mass of nickel = 2.852 g - 2.241 g = 0.611 g

Molar mass of nickel = 58.6934 g/mol

Moles of nickel = $\frac{2.241}{58.6934}\ mol$ = 0.03818 mol

Molar mass of oxygen = 15.999 g/mol

Moles of nickel = $\frac{0.611}{15.999}\ mol$ = 0.03818 mol

Taking the simplest ratio for Ni and O as:

0.03818 : 0.03818 = 1 : 1

The empirical formula is = $NiO$

6. Cuando se oxidan en el aire 12,120 g de vapor de Zinc se obtienen 15,084 g del óxido. ¿Cuál es la fórmula empírica del óxido?

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

12120 g + O2 = 15084 g

m Zn = 12.120 Kg

m óxido = 15.084 Kg

1. calcular la masa de cinc en gramos

g = 12,120 Kg x 1000 = 12120 g de cinc

g = 15.084 Kg x 100 = 15084 g de oxígeno

2. calcular gramos de Oxigeno

g O = 15084 g - 12120 g = 2964 g O2

3. calcular % de Zn y O

%m/m ( m soluto / m solc.) x 100

%m/m (Zn) = ( 1210 g / 15084 g ) x 100

% m/m (Zn) = 80.35 % = 80.35 g

%m/m (O) = ( 2964 g / 15084 g ) x 100

% m/m (Zn) = 19.65 % = 19.65 g

4. Calcular moles de cada elemento

Zn: 80.35 g / 65.38 g/mol = 1.228 mol

O: 19.65 g / 16 g/mol = 1.228 mol

5. dividir entre el menor de los elementos

Zn: 1.228 mol / 1.228 mol = 1

O: 1.228 mol / 1.228 mol = 1

suppose medical records indicate that the length of newborn babies (in inches) is normally distributed with a mean of 20 and a s

Tanya [424]

Answer:

0.6826 (68.26%)

Explanation:

1) Find the z-scores:

z = [X - μ ] / σ

a) z-score for 22.6 inches length

X = 22.6
μ = 20
σ = 2.6

z = [ 22.6 - 20 ] / 2.6 = 1.00

b) z-score for 17.4 inches length

X = 17.4
μ = 20
σ = 2.6

z = [ 17.4 - 20 ] / 2.6 = - 1.00

2) Probability

Then, you have to find the probability that the length of an infant is between - 1.00 and 1.00 standards deviations (σ) from the mean (μ).

That is a well known value of 68%, which is part of the 68-95-99.7 empirical rule.

The most exact result is obtained from tables and is 68.26%:

1 - P (z ≥ 1.00) - P (z ≤ - 1.00) = 1 - 0.1587 - 0.1587 = 0.6826 = 68.26%

What is the mass, in grams, of 1.58 mol of water, h2o?

inn [45]

Answer is: mass of 1,58 mol of water is 28,44 grams.
n(H₂O) = 1,58 mol.
M(H₂O) = 2 · 2 g/mol + 16 g/mol.
M(H₂O) = 18 g/mol.
m(H₂O) = n(H₂O) · M(H₂O).
m(H₂O) = 1,58 mol · 18 g/mol.
m(H₂O) = 28,44 g.
n - amount of substance.
M - molar mass.
