The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Gaseous compound Q contains only xenon and oxygen. When a 0.100 g sample of Q is placed in a 50.0-mL steel vessel at 0°C, the pressure is 0.229 atm. What is the likely formula of the compound?

A. XeO

B. XeO_4

C. Xe_2O_2  

D. Xe_2O_3

E. Xe_3O_2

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical formula of the compound is XeO_4

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molecular mass of the compound, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

Or,

PV=\frac{w}{M}RT

where,

P = Pressure of the gas = 0.229 atm

V = Volume of the gas  = 50.0 mL = 0.050 L     (Conversion factor:  1 L = 1000 mL)

w = Weight of the gas = 0.100 g

M = Molar mass of gas  = ?

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = Temperature of the gas = 0^oC=273K

Putting value in above equation, we get:

0.229\times 0.050=\frac{0.100}{M}\times 0.0821\times 273\\\\M=\frac{0.100\times 0.0821\times 273}{0.229\times 0.050}=195.4g/mol\approx 195g/mol

The compound having mass as 195 g/mol is XeO_4

Hence, the chemical formula of the compound is XeO_4

In which are the ionic solids ranked in order of increasing melting point?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:A

Explanation:

The melting points of solids depend in the relative sizes of ions in the ionic lattice. The smaller the relative sizes of the ions, the higher the lattice energy and the stronger the lattice hence higher melting point. Comparing relative ionic sizes, fluoride ion is lesser in size than chloride ion hence NaF has a higher melting point than NaCl.

Sati [7]

The letter in parentheses after a chemical formula indicates c) the physical state of the substance.

The letters can be:

→ (s) for solid.

→ (l) for liquid.

→ (g) for gazeous.

→ (aq) for an aqueous solution (like NaCl (aq) - NaCl is dissolved in water)

Iodine gas in a container is heated over a flame. What happens to the average kinetic energy of the iodine particles
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Explanation: "As a sample of matter is continually cooled, the average kinetic energy of its particles decreases. Eventually, one would expect the particles to stop moving completely. Absolute zero is the temperature at which the motion of particles theoretically ceases"
