Answer:

Explanation:

% by mass of C = (mass of C/mass of CO2) X 100%

mass of C = 12

mass of CO2 = 12 + (16X2)

                      = 12 + 32

                      = 44

% by mass of C = (12/44) X 100% =27.2%

Answer:

The answer to your question is 27.3 %

Explanation:

Percent by mass = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the atomic mass of carbon using the periodic table

Atomic mass = 12g

2.- Calculate the molecular mass of CO₂.

Carbon = 12

Oxygen = 16 x 2 = 32

Total = 12 + 32 = 44g

3.- Calculate the percent by mass of carbon using proportions

                          44g -------------------- 100%

                           12 g -------------------  x

                            x = (12 x 100) / 44

                            x = 1200 / 44

                            x = 27.3 %

how to identify amphiprotic compounds, if i give you the chemical structure or name of the compound/molecule.
Sonja [21]

Amphiprotic compounds are able to both donate and accept a proton.

Amphiprotic compounds contain a hydrogen atom and lone pair of valence electron.

For example, HSO₃⁻ (hydrogen sulfate ion) is an amphiprotic compound.

Balanced chemical equation for reaction when HSO₃⁻ donate protons to water:

HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ SO₄²⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq).

Ka = [SO₄²⁻] · [H₃O⁺] / [HSO₃⁻]

Balanced chemical equation for reaction when HSO₃⁻ accepts protons from water:

HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₂SO₄(aq) + OH⁻(aq).

Kb = [H₂SO₄] · [OH⁻] / [HSO₃⁻]

Water (H₂O), amino acids, hydrogen carbonate ions (HCO₃⁻) are examples of amphiprotic species.

Another example, water is an amphiprotic substance:

H₂O + HCl → H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻

H₂O + NH₃ → NH₄⁺ + OH⁻
