Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Converting Fahrenheit into kelvin as follows.

           \frac{5}{9} \times (^{o}F - 32) + 273.15

So, 246^{o}F will be converted into kelvin as follows.

            \frac{5}{9} \times (246^{o}F - 32) + 273.15

                = 392.039 K

Also, 832^{o}F will be converted into kelvin as follows.

             \frac{5}{9} \times (832^{o}F - 32) + 273.15                                      

                = 717.594 K

As 13 K is the temperature at night time. So, it means sulfur will exist as a solid at this time because melting point of sulfur is 392.039 K.

Whereas 683 K is the temperature during day time. Hence, it means sulfur will exist in liquid state because its boiling point is 717.594 K.

Thus, we can conclude that on mercury, sulfur exists as both a liquid and a solid.

What is the mass of sodium (Na) in 50 grams of table salt (NaCl)? Show your work.
Margaret [11]

Answer:

19 g

Explanation:

Data Given:

Sodium Chloride (table salt) = 50 g

Amount of sodium (Na) = ?

Solution:

Molecular weight calculation:

NaCl = 23 + 35.5

NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

Mass contributed by Sodium = 23 g

calculate the mole percent composition of sodium (Na) in sodium Chloride.

Since the percentage of compound is 100

So,

Percent of sodium (Na) = 23 / 58.5 x 100

Percent of sodium (Na) = 39.3 %

It means that for ever gram of sodium chloride there is 0.393 g of Na is present.

So,

for the 50 grams of table salt (NaCl) the mass of Na will be

mass of sodium (Na) = 0.393 x 50 g

mass of sodium (Na) = 19 g
