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.

How many formula units are there in 450 g of Na2S04?
Mashutka [201]

Formula units in 450 g of Na_{2} So_{4} is 1.93 × 10²⁴ formula units.

<u>Explanation:</u>

First we have to find the number of moles in the given mass by dividing the mass by its molar mass as,

$\frac{450 g}{142.04 g/mol} =  3.2 moles

Now, we have to multiply the number of moles of Na₂SO₄ by the Avogadro's number, 6.022 × 10²³ formula units/mol, so we will get the number of formula units present in the given mass of the compound.

3.2 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ = 1.93 × 10²⁴ formula units.

So, 1.93 × 10²⁴ formula units is present in 450g of Na₂SO₄.

Extra Stoichiometry Practice

Answer: 50. 4g

Explanation:

First calculate number of moles of aluminium in 38.8g

Moles = 38.8g/ 26.982mol/g

= 1.44mol

By looking at the balance equation you can see that 4 moles of aluminium produce 2 moles of aluminium oxide.

4 = 2

1.4 = x

Find the value of x

x= (1.4×2)/4= 0.72 mol

0.72 moles of aluminium oxide are produced from 38.8g of aluminium

Now find the mass of aluminium produced.

Mass = moles × molar mass

= 0.72mol × 69.93 mol/g

= 50.4g
