For an alloy that consists of 78.2 g copper, 103.5 g zinc, and 2.8 g lead, what are the concentrations of (a) Cu, (b) Zn, and (c

) Pb in weight percent? The atomic weights of Cu, Zn, and Pb are 63.54, 65.39, and 207.2 g/mol, respectively.

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass percent is defined as the mass of an element divided by the sum of masses of all the elements multiplied by 100. It is generally used to define the concentration. It does not depend on concentration.

It is given as;

Mass percent = (mass of an element / Total mass of the compound ) × 100

Mass of  compound (alloy) = 78.2 g copper  + 103.5 g zinc +2.8 g lead = 184.5 g

(a) Cu

Mass of Cu = 78.2

Mass percent = (78.2 / 184.5) * 100 = 42.38%

(a) Zn

Mass of Zn = 103.5

Mass percent = (103.5 / 184.5) * 100 = 56.10%

(c) Pb

Mass of Pb = 2.8

Mass percent = (2.8 / 184.5) * 100 = 1.52%

<span>0.0292 moles of sucrose are available. First, lookup the atomic weights of all involved elements Atomic weight Carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight Hydrogen = 1.00794 Atomic weight Oxygen = 15.999 Now calculate the molar mass of sucrose 12 * 12.0107 + 22 * 1.00794 + 11 * 15.999 = 342.29208 g/mol Divide the mass of sucrose by its molar mass 10.0 g / 342.29208 g/mol = 0.029214816 mol Finally, round the result to 3 significant figures, giving 0.0292 moles</span>

Besides being slow to reproduce, what else could make a population susceptible to being endangered?
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Not being able to adapt to their surroundings

Explanation:

For example, a population living in a cold climate and wears little to no clothes will give them frost bite. And so the nature of needing to adapt is core to survival.

How many grams are in 3.14 x 1015 molecules of CO?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Not Many

1 mol of CO has a mass of

C = 12

O = 16

1 mol = 28 grams.

1 mol of molecules = 6.02 * 10^23

x mol of molecules = 3.14 * 10^15        Cross multiply

6.02*10^23 x = 1 * 3.14 * 10^15             Divide by 6.02*10^23

x = 3.14*10^15 / 6.02*10^23

x = 0.000000005 mols

x = 5*10^-9

1 mol of CO has a mass of 28

5*10^-9 mol of CO has a mass of x                        Cross Multiply

x = 5 * 10^-9 * 28

x = 1.46 * 10^-7 grams

Answer: there are 1.46 * 10-7 grams of CO if only 3.14 * 10^15 molecules are in the sample

Could someone explain what oxidation numbers are and what these questions are asking of me?
Oxana [17]

The oxidation state, sometimes referred to as oxidation number, describes the degree of oxidation of an atom in a chemical compound.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The oxidation number of an atom is the charge that atom would have if the compound was composed of ions. 1. The oxidation number of an atom is zero in a neutral substance that contains atoms of only one element. The oxidation number of simple ions is equal to the charge on the ion.

The oxidation number of a mono atomic ion equals the charge of the ion. The oxidation number of H is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electro negative elements. The oxidation number of O in compounds is usually -2, but it is -1 in peroxides. The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.
