Assuming the question is asking for percent composition by mass,

The molar mass of sodium bicarbonate is:

22.990 + 1.008 + 12.011 + 3*15.999 = 84.006 g/mol

The molar mass of 3 oxygen atoms is:

3*15.999 = 47.997 g/mol

The percentage composition by mass is:

47.997/84.006 * 100% = 57.1% (3 s.f.)

Determine the heat energy needed to raise the temperature of 120 grams of ice at -5 to steam at 115°
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Q = 30355.2 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of ice = 120 g

Initial temperature = -5°C

Final temperature = 115°C

Energy required = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity of ice is = 2.108 j/g.°C

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Q = m.c. ΔT

ΔT = T2 -T1

ΔT = 115 - (-5°C)

ΔT = 120 °C

Q = 120 g × 2.108 j/g.°C × 120 °C

Q = 30355.2 J

Which of the following is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds? 1. Li 2. Cl 3. N 4. H 5. F
alukav5142 [94]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of lithium is 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1. So, to attain stability it will loose an electron and hence, it forms a single bond.

Atomic number of chlorine is 17 and it has 7 valence electrons. Hence, in order to attain stability it will gain one electron and therefore, it forms a single bond only.

Atomic number of nitrogen is 7 and its electronic distribution is 2, 5. Therefore, to attain stability it needs to gain 3 more electrons. Hence, a nitrogen atom is able to form a triple bond and also it is able to form a double bond.

Hydrogen has atomic number 1 and it attains stability by gaining one electron. Therefore, a hydrogen atoms always forms a single bond.

Atomic number of fluorine is 9 and its electronic distribution is 2, 7. To complete its octet it needs to gain one electron. Hence, a fluorine atom always forms a single bond.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options nitrogen is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds.
