Answer : The percentage composition of carbon, hydrogen and sulfur in a compound is, 38.8 %, 9.6 % and 51.6 % respectively.

Explanation :

To calculate the percentage composition of element in sample, we use the equation:

\%\text{ composition of element}=\frac{\text{Mass of element}}{\text{Mass of sample}}\times 100

Given:

Mass of carbon = 1.94 g

Mass of hydrogen = 0.48 g

Mass of sulfur = 2.58 g

First we have to calculate the mass of sample.

Mass of sample = Mass of carbon + Mass of hydrogen + Mass of sulfur

Mass of sample = 1.94 + 0.48 + 2.58 = 5.0 g

Now we have to calculate the percentage composition of a compound.

\%\text{ composition of carbon}=\frac{1.94g}{5.0g}\times 100=38.8\%

\%\text{ composition of hydrogen}=\frac{0.48g}{5.0g}\times 100=9.6\%

\%\text{ composition of sulfur}=\frac{2.58g}{5.0g}\times 100=51.6\%

Hence, the percentage composition of carbon, hydrogen and sulfur in a compound is, 38.8 %, 9.6 % and 51.6 % respectively.

The reaction of nitrogen dioxide with fluorine
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Rate = 0.001615 Ms-1

Explanation:

2 NO2 + F2 --> 2 NO2F

The reaction is first order with respect to NO2 and also first order with respect to F2.

The rate law is given as;

Rate = k [NO2] [ F2]

k = 1.58E-4 M-1s-1

[NO2] = 2.84 M

[F2] = 3.60 M

Rate = ?

Inserting the values into the equation, we have;

Rate = 1.58E-4 * 2.84 * 3.60

Rate = 0.001615 Ms-1

WILL GIVE 50 POINTS FOR ALL ANSWERS!!! PLEASE HELP!
blondinia [14]

Answer:

the answer would be (A.) and (D.).

Explanation:

the reason for that being is because if calcium sulfate is a main component of plaster of  paris you would need to find out what is in it that makes it the main component aka (the formula) therefore part of the answer is (A.). The other part of the answer was (D.) because you would need to find the amount of calcium sulfate that contain 12 grams of oxegeon atoms because you finding the answer to that could lead to the answer of what is the main component of plaster of Paris.

As salinity increases:
Mashcka [7]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The amount of salt present or dissolved in water or water body is known as salinity.

When salinity increases then number of particles increases, therefore, density will increase. Also, number of ions will decrease thus, electrical conductivity will decrease.

On the other hand, increase in salinity will increase the amount of salt (NaCl) is the water.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, the option all of the above is true.
