To calculate percent composition, you first need to find the molar mass of C (carbon), H (hydrogen) and O (oxygen).
C is 12.01
H is 1.00
O is 16

Then multiply each by the number of atoms of each element in the formula (the number that comes after each element in the equation for example C6 means 6 carbon atoms.

C: 12.01 x 6= 72.06
H: 1x12= 12
O: 16x6= 96

Then add them up.
72.06+ 12+ 96= 180.06

Now find the percent composition of carbon.

72.06/ 180.06 x 100= 40.01%

So the answer is C 40%.

What is the pH of a solution that has a [H+] = 0.010 mol/L?
Serjik [45]

Answer:

pH = 2

A 0.010 M solution of hydrochloric acid, HCl, has a molarity of 0.010 M. This means that [H+] = 1 x 10-2 M. The pH of this aqueous solution of H+ ions is pH = 2

Chemist preformed Reaction of solid magnesium burning and found that the mass of the magnesium oxide what is greater than the ma
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The magnesium reacted with the oxygen in the air.

Explanation:

For argument’s sake, let’s say that the mass of magnesium oxide was 3 g and that of the oxide was 5 g.  

The reaction was

            magnesium + oxygen ⟶ magnesium oxide

Mass:           3 g                                          5 g

Mass of oxygen = 5 g – 3 g = 2 g

The 3 g of magnesium must have combined with 2 g of oxygen to form 5 g of magnesium oxide.

Which of the following processes would you predict to have an increase in entropy?
Anna [14]
C. Melting ice. 
It is C because melting ice is a change of state from solid to liquid which requires an addition of energy(or entropy) into the system.
Condensation of water occurs from a gas to a liquid state, which takes energy out of the system(water) and gives it to the surroundings(air around it). Freezing water is the same as condensation except for the state change. Deposition is simply gas to a solid instantaneously so you can again see it as with the other two examples.
