Answer:

Percentage of oxygen = 30%

Percentage of carbon = 30%

Percentage of hydrogen = 40%

Explanation:

Formula:

Percentage of element = given amount / total amount × 100

Given compound:

C₆H₈O₆

Number of atoms of carbon = 6

Number of atoms of hydrogen = 8

Number of atoms of oxygen = 6

Total number of atoms = 20

Percentage of carbon = 6/20 × 100

Percentage of carbon = 30%

Percentage of Hydrogen = 8/20 × 100

Percentage of Hydrogen = 40%

Percentage of oxygen = 6/20 × 100

Percentage of oxygen = 30%

PLEASE HELP <br> What is the element dot structure for Li+1? Really confused about the +1 part.

AleksandrR [38]

Since it's Li+1, that means it's a Lithium ion, not just the element itself. The +1 charge means it loses an electron. The dot structure would be Lithium, and however many valence electrons it has minus 1

Coal power plants burn large amounts of coal, c(s), in an o 2 (g) atmosphere to generate electricity. the chemical reaction re

charle [14.2K]

Answer is: volume of carbon dioxide is 1,84·10⁸ l.
Chemical reaction: C + O₂ → CO₂.
m(C) = 100 t · 1000 kg/t = 100000 kg
m(C) = 100000 kg · 1000 g/kg = 10⁸ g.
n(C) = m(C) ÷ M(C).
n(C) = 10⁸ g ÷ 12 g/mol.
n(C) = 8,33·10⁶ mol.
From chemical reaction: n(C) . n(CO₂) = 1 : 1.
n(CO₂) = 8,33·10⁶ mol.
m(CO₂) = 8,33·10⁶ mol · 44 g/mol.
m(CO₂) = 3,66·10⁸ = 3,66·10⁵ kg.
V(CO₂) = 3,66·10⁵ kg ÷ 1,98 kg/m³ = 1,84·10⁵ m³.
V(CO₂) = 1,84·10⁵ m³ · 1000 l/m³ = 1,84·10⁸ l.

What is the value of x in the measure of the angle?

Andrew [12]

The two angles would be both 41 degrees.
$(2x + 13) = 41 \\ 2x = 41 - 13 \\ 2x = 28 \\ x = \frac{28}{2} \\ x = 14$
x in this case would be 14 degrees.
