Answer:

It is very important to known about the chemical reactions that takes place around us.

There are various types of chemical reactions taking place in our every day life. The burning of match stick, rusting of iron are chemical reactions that takes place in the body of organisms.

The compounds react together to form essential products which is formed. The matter that is formed in nature is combination if elements. Water and carbon dioxide form carbohydrates.

This is an example of combination of elements. There are many more examples which are seen in day to day life.

Scientist believe that about 25 of the known elements are essential to life. Just four of these - Carbon (C), Oxygen (O), Hydrogen (H), and Nitrogen (N), - make up about 96% of the human body.


These four elements are found in the basic structure of all biochemical molecules. For example, Glucose is a carbohydrate and it's molecular formula is C6H12O6 - each molecule of glucose is made up of 6 Carbon atoms, 12 Hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.


The other elements found can be divided into two main groups - major elements and trace elements.


The human body functions as a result of a large number of the chemical reactions involving compounds of a of these elements.

How many grams of ammonium chloride (gram formula mass= 53.5 g) are contained in .500 L of a 2.00 M solution?
Elza [17]

Answer:

53.5g of NH4Cl

Explanation:

First, we need to obtain the number of mole of NH4Cl. This is illustrated below:

Volume = 0.5L

Molarity = 2M

Mole =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole = 2 x 0.5

Mole = 1mole

Now, let us convert 1mole of NH4Cl to gram. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of NH4Cl = 53.5g/mol

Number of mole = 1

Mass =?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass = 1 x 53.5

Mass = 53.5g

Therefore, 53.5g of NH4Cl is contained in the solution.

A sample weighing 3.110 g is a mixture of Fe 2 O 3 (molar mass = 159.69 g/mol) and Al 2 O 3 (molar mass = 101.96 g/mol). When he
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The mass fraction of ferric oxide in the original sample :\frac{723}{3110}

Explanation:

Mass of the mixture = 3.110 g

Mass of Fe_2O_3=x

Mass of Al_2O_3=y

After heating the mixture it allowed to react with hydrogen gas in which all the ferric oxide reacted to form metallic iron and water vapors where as aluminum oxide did not react.

Fe_2O_3(s)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe(s)+3H_2O(g)

Mass of mixture left after all the ferric oxide has reacted = 2.387 g

Mass of mixture left after all the ferric oxide has reacted = y

x=3.110 g- y=3.110 g - 2.387 g = 0.723 g

The mass fraction of ferric oxide in the original sample :

\frac{0.723 g}{3.110 g}=\frac{723}{3110}

If you know the mass of Earth, what other single value would you need to know to calculate Earth's average density?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Volume

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.  In order to find the density of earth when mass is given we have to calculate its volume. The volume of earth is calculated by using the volume formula for sphere. i.e 4/3 π r³. we also require radius to find the volume and we know that

Diameter = 2 × radius

The diameter of earth equator is 12756.75 Km. So we calculate the radius by dividing the diameter by 2. Then by putting the value of radius in 4/3 π r³ we will get the volume and then we can calculate the density of earth.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.
