We have been given the condition that carbon makes up 35% of the mass of the substance and the rest is made up of oxygen. With this, it can be concluded that 65% of the substance is made up of oxygen. If we let x be the mass of oxygen in the substance, the operation that would best represent the scenario is,

<span>                                       x = (0.65)(5.5 g)</span>

<span>                                       <em> </em><span><em>x = 3.575 g</em></span></span>

For the following chemical equation.
kotegsom [21]

Sr is the limiting reactant.

Given the reaction equation;

2Sr + O2 (g) → 2SrO

2 moles of Sr reacts with 1 mole of O2

2 moles Sr will react with x mole of O2

x = 2 ×1/2

x = 1 mole of O2

Since we have more O2 than required, it is the reactant in excess, hence Sr is the limiting reactant.

A 220.0-mL sample of helium gas is in a cylinder with a movable piston at 105 kPa and 275K. the piston is pushed until the sampl
nignag [31]
Using the general gas equation:

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

(105*220)/275 =   (P₂*95)/310

(105*220)*310/275  = P₂*95

 (105*220*310)/(275*95)  =  P₂

       274.11        =  P₂

       P₂  = 274.11 kPa

       New Pressure =  274.11 kPa
