The atomic mass is equal to the number of neutrons, plus the number of protons, in the nucleus of the atom
Answer:
15.95
Explanation:
This question is a modification of the calculation of the empirical formula of a compound given its percent composition and atomic weights of the elements in the compound.
Here we are given the formula and the percent composition, so we know that there are 4 atoms of E per 2 atoms of N so lets solve using the information given.
In 100 grams of the binary compound we have
30.46 g N
69.54 g E
The number of moles is the mass divided by atomic weight:
mol N = 30.46 g / A.W N = 30.46 g / 14.00 g/mol = 2.18 mol N
mol E = 65.54 g / A.W E
Thus,
4 mol E/ 2 mol N = ( 69.54 g/ A.W E ) / 2.18
2 A.E = 65.54 g / 2.18 ⇒ A.W E = 69.54 g / ( 2 x 2.18 ) = 15.94 g
So the A.W is 15.94 g/mol which is close the atomic weight of O.
From the calculation, the moles of water produced is 18 moles of water.
<h3>What is a decomposition reaction?</h3>
A decomposition reaction is one in which a substance is split up into smaller parts.
We have the reaction; 2 Cr(OH)3(aq) ------------> Cr2O3(s) + 3H2O(l)
From this reaction;
2 moles of Cr(OH)3 produced 3 moles of water
12 moles of Cr(OH)3 will produce;
12 moles * 3 moles / 2moles
= 18 moles of water
Hence, 12 moles of chromium (III) hydroxide produces 18 moles of water.

Are produced 72 grams of water in this reaction.
<h3>Mole calculation</h3>
To find the value of moles of a product from the number of moles of a reactant, it is necessary to observe the stoichiometric ratio between them:

Analyzing the reaction, it is possible to see that the stoichiometric ratio is 1:2, so we can perform the following expression:



So, if there are 2 mols of Ca(OH)2:
Ca(OH)2 | H2O


Finally, just find the number of grams of water using your molar mass:


So, 72 grams are produced of water in this reaction.
