Answer:

% composition O = 19.9%

% composition Cu = 80.1%

Explanation:

Given data:

Total mass of compound = 3.12 g

Mass of copper = 2.50 g

Mass of oxygen = 3.12 - 2.50 = 0.62 g

% composition = ?

Solution:

Formula:

<em>% composition = ( mass of element/ total mass)×100</em>

% composition Cu = (2.50 g / 3.12 g)×100

% composition Cu = 0.80 ×100

% composition Cu = 80.1%

For oxygen:

<em>% composition = ( mass of element/ total mass)×100</em>

% composition O = (0.62 g / 3.12 g)×100

% composition O = 0.199 ×100

% composition O = 19.9%

How has the taxonomy of organisms changed over time
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

When scientist find new species that may have to change classification systems in order to accommodate them. DNA sequencing has also let us find out more about evolutionary relationships. The more recent the common ancestor, the more closely related the two species are.

If 23.6 g of hydrogen gas reacts with 28.3 g of nitrogen gas, what is the maximum amount of product that can be produced?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

34.3 g NH3

Explanation:

M(H2) = 2*1 = 2 g/mol

M(N2) = 2*14 = 28 g/mol

M(NH3) = 14 + 3*1 = 17 g/mol

23.6 g H2* 1 mol/2 g = 11.8 mol H2

28.3 g N2 * 1 mol/28 g = 1.01 mol N2

                                 3H2 + N2 ------> 2NH3

from reaction         3 mol    1 mol

given                   11.8 mol    1.01 mol

We can see that H2 is given in excess, N2 is limiting reactant.

                                 3H2 + N2 ------> 2NH3

from reaction                     1 mol         2 mol

given                                 1.01 mol      x

x = 2*1.01/1= 2.02 mol NH3

2.02 mol * 17g/1 mol ≈ 34.3 g NH3

What is the concentration of 10.00 mL of HBr if it takes 16.73 mL of a 0.253 M LiOH solution to neutralize it?
Leni [432]
First. let's write the reaction formula: HBr +LiOH ----> LiBr + H₂O

let's get the moles of LiOH first

moles= Molarity x Liters

moles= 0.253 M x 0.01673 Liter= 0.00423 moles LiOH

using the balanced equation, you can see that 1 mol LiOH is equal to 1 mol HBr. so:

0.00423 mol LiOH = 0.00423 mol HBr

now let's find the concentration

molarity= mol/ Liters

0.00423 mol/ 0.01000 Liters= 0.423 M
