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 many bromine atoms are present in 39.0 g of ch2br2?
Mandarinka [93]
Answer is: there is  2,69·10²³ atoms of bromine.
m(CH₂Br₂) = 39,0 g.
n(CH₂Br₂) = m(CH₂Br₂) ÷ M(CH₂Br₂).
n(CH₂Br₂) = 39 g ÷ 173,83 g/mol.
n(CH₂Br₂) = 0,224 mol.
In one molecule of CH₂Br₂, there is two bromine atoms, so:
n(CH₂Br₂) : n(Br) = 1 : 2.
n(Br) = 0,448 mol.
N(Br) = n(Br) · Na.
N(Br) = 0,448 mol · 6,022·10²³ 1/mol.
n(Br) = 2,69·10²³.

Liquid nitrogen boils at –195.8°C. Express the boiling point of liquid nitrogen in kelvin
inessss [21]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 77.35 \ K}}

Explanation:

The Celsius and Kelvin scales are used to measure the temperature of matter.  Their scales and unit differences are the same (1 K increase = 1 °C increase), but they have different starting points.

So, the conversion is quite simple and only requires addition because of the different starting points. The formula is:

T_K = T_C+ 273.15

The boiling point of liquid nitrogen is -195.8 °C. We can substitute this value into the formula.

T_K= -195.8 + 273.15

T_K= 77.35 K

The boiling point of liquid nitrogen is 77.35 Kelvin.

What is the concentration of h+ ions in a solution of hydrochloric acid that was prepared by diluting 35.0 ml of concentrated (1
Alekssandra [29.7K]
Hydrochloric acid ionisation is as follows;
HCl ---> H⁺ + Cl⁻
HCl is a strong base so there's complete dissociation of acid to H⁺ ions
The number of HCl moles is equivalent to number of H⁺ ions present
1 L of solution contains - 11.6 moles of H⁺ ions
In 35 ml number of moles - 11.6 mol/L / 1000 ml x 35 ml = 0.406 mol
This number of moles are dissolved in 500 ml 
therefore molarity = 0.406 mol /500 ml x 1000 ml = 0.812 M
