Answer:

Ammonia, NH₃ > ammonium nitrate, NH₄NO₃ > ammonium hydrogen phosphate, (NH₄)₂HPO₄

Explanation:

Mass percentage -

Mass percentage of A is given as , the mass of the substance A by mass of the total solution multiplied by 100.

i.e.

mass % A = mass of A / mass of solution * 100

Given,  

mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

mass of hydrogen = 1 g/mol

mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol

mass of phosphorus = 31 g/mol

1. Ammonia, NH₃

Hence , the mass of solution is calculated as the summation of the mass of the atom * number of atom ,  

Hence ,  

mass of solution = 1 * 14 g/mol  + 3 * 1 g/mol  

mass of solution = 17 g/mol

and ,

mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

The mass percent of nitrogen can be calculated from using the above formula  

mass % N = mass of N / mass of solution * 100

mass % N = 14 g/mol / 17 g/mol * 100

mass % N = 82.35 % .

2.   ammonium nitrate, NH₄NO₃

Hence , the mass of solution is calculated as the summation of the mass of the atom * number of atom ,  

Hence ,  

mass of solution = 2 * 14 g/mol  + 4 * 1 g/mol  + 3 * 16 g/mol

mass of solution = 80 g/mol

and ,

mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

The mass percent of nitrogen can be calculated from using the above formula  

mass % N = mass of N / mass of solution * 100

mass % N = 14 g/mol / 80 g/mol * 100

mass % N = 17.50 % .

3.   ammonium hydrogen phosphate, (NH₄)₂HPO₄

Hence , the mass of solution is calculated as the summation of the mass of the atom * number of atom ,  

Hence ,  

mass of solution = 2 * 14 g/mol  + 9 * 1 g/mol  + 4 * 16 g/mol + 1 * 31 g/mol

mass of solution = 132 g/mol

and ,

mass of nitrogen = 14 g/mol

The mass percent of nitrogen can be calculated from using the above formula  

mass % N = mass of N / mass of solution * 100

mass % N = 14 g/mol / 132 g/mol * 100

mass % N = 10.60 % .

Hence , the correct order is -

Ammonia, NH₃ > ammonium nitrate, NH₄NO₃ > ammonium hydrogen phosphate, (NH₄)₂HPO₄

How many atoms of carbon are combined to with 2.81 moles of hydrogen atoms in a sample of the compound ethane, C2H6?
puteri [66]

Answer:

5.64×10²³ atoms C

Explanation:

Convert moles of H to moles of C:

2.81 mol H × (2 mol C / 6 mol H) = 0.937 mol C

Convert moles of C to atoms of C:

0.937 mol C × (6.02×10²³ atoms C / mol C) = 5.64×10²³ atoms C

A property of a particle that affects<br> how it behaves around other particles
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

An elementary particle can be one of two groups: a fermion or a boson. Fermions are the building blocks of matter and have mass, while bosons behave as force carriers for fermion interactions and some of them have no mass. The Standard Model is the most accepted way to explain how particles behave, and the forces that affect them. According to this model, the elementary particles are further grouped into quarks, leptons, and gauge bosons, with the Higgs boson having a special status as a non-gauge boson.

How many moles of Chromium is in 4.41 ×10^24 atoms
zalisa [80]

7.32 moles of Chromium is present in 4.41 × 10²⁴ atoms.

<h3>How to find the number of moles ?</h3>

Number of moles = \frac{\text{Given number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's Number}}

     

<h3>What is Avogadro's Number ?</h3>

Avogadro's number is the number of particles in one mole of substance. 6.022 × 10²³ is known as Avogadro's Constant / Avogadro's Number.

Avogadro's Number = 6.022 × 10²³

Now put the values in above formula we get

Number of moles = \frac{\text{Given number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's Number}}

                             = \frac{4.41 \times 10^{24}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}

                             = 7.32 moles

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that 7.32 moles of Chromium is present in 4.41 × 10²⁴ atoms.

3. Explain the relationship between power, energy and time.
likoan [24]
There is a very simple relationship between the three. First off, power is the amount of energy used over a certain amount of time. Energy is the capacity of carrying out that power. Lastly, time depends on how much energy you have to exert the work.

Hope this helps :)
