Answer:

\% atAg=44.6\%\\\% atAu=44.9\%\\\% atCu=10.5\%

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for computing the atom percent, one must obtain the number of atoms of silver, gold and copper as shown below:

atomsAg=45.5lbm*\frac{453.59g}{1lbm}*\frac{1molAg}{107.87gAg}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}atomsAg}{1molAg}=1.15x10^{26}atomsAg\\atomsAu=83.7lbm*\frac{453.59g}{1lbm}*\frac{1molAu}{196.97gAu}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}atomsAu}{1molAu}=1.16x10^{26}atomsAu\\atomsCu=6.3lbm*\frac{453.59g}{1lbm}*\frac{1molAg}{63.55gCu}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}atomsCu}{1molCu}=2.71x10^{25}atomsCu

Thus, the atom percent turns out:

\% atAg=\frac{1.15x10^{26}}{1.15x10^{26}+1.16x10^{26}+2.71x10^{25}}*100\% =44.6\%\\\% atAu=\frac{1.16x10^{26}}{1.15x10^{26}+1.16x10^{26}+2.71x10^{25}}*100\% =44.9\%\\\% atCu=\frac{2.71x10^{25}}{1.15x10^{26}+1.16x10^{26}+2.71x10^{25}}*100\% =10.5\%

Best regards.

A sample of a compound that contains only the elements C, H, and N is completely burned in O₂ to produce 44.0 g of CO₂, 45.0 g o
koban [17]

Answer:

CH₅N

Explanation:

In the combustion, all of the C in the compound was used to produce CO₂ in a 1:1 ratio. Thus, the moles of CO₂ (MW 44.01 g/mol) produced equals the moles of C in the compound:

(44.0 g)(mol/44.01g) = 0.99977 mol CO₂ = 0.99977... mol C

Similarly, all of the H in the compound was used to produce H₂O in a ratio of 2H:1H₂O. The moles of H₂O (MW 18.02 g/mol) produced was:

(45.0 g)(mol/18.02g) = 2.497...mol H₂O

Moles of H is found using the molar ratio of 2H:1H₂O:

(2.497...mol H₂O)(2H/1H₂O) = 4.994...mol H

The ratio of H to C in the compound is:

(4.994...mol H)/(0.99977... mol C) = 5 H:C

Some NO₂ was produced from the N in the compound. Assuming a 1:1 ratio of C:N, the simplest empirical formula is: CH₅N.

What is the new concentration of 25.0mL added to 125.0mL of 0.150M
____ [38]

Answer:

The new concentration is 0.125 M.

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume V₁ = 125.0 mL

Initial molarity M₁ = 0.150 M

New volume V₂ = 25 mL +125 mL = 150 mL

New concentration M₂ = ?

Solution:

M₁V₁    =    M₂V₂

0.150 M × 125 mL = M₂ × 150 mL

M₂ = 0.150 M × 125 mL / 150mL

M₂ = 18.75 M.mL/150 mL

M₂ = 0.125 M

The new concentration is 0.125 M.
