The percent composition of all elements in HClO3 is:

Chemistry
1 answer:
ser-zykov [4K]3 years ago
6 0
The answer is <span>b. 1% H, 42% Cl, 57% O.</span>

Let's first calculate a molar mass (M) of HClO₃. <span>Molar mass is a mass of 1 mole of a substance. It can be expressed as the sum of relative atomic masses (Ar), which are masses of atoms of the elements:
</span>M(HClO₃) = Ar(H) + Ar(Cl) + 3Ar(O)

Ar(H) = 1 u 
Ar(Cl) = 35.5 u
Ar(O) = 16 u
M(HClO₃) = Ar(H) + Ar(Cl) + 3Ar(O) = 1 + 35.5 + 3 · <span>16 = 84.5 u

Now, we just need to calculate mass percent of each element using the proportion:
Ar : x = M : 100%                   </span>⇒      x = Ar ÷ M · 100%

Hydrogen: x = Ar(H) ÷ M · 100% = 1 ÷ 84.5 · 100% = 1.2% ≈ 1%
Chlorine: x = Ar(Cl) ÷ M · 100% = 35.5 ÷ 84.5 <span>· 100% = 42%
</span>Oxygen: x = 3Ar(O) ÷ M · 100% = 48 ÷ 84.5 · 100% = 56.8% ≈ 57%

Calculate the final Celsius temperature when 634 L at 21 °C is compressed to 307 L.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

- 130.64°C.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas:<em> PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n and P are constant, and have two different values of V and T:

<em>V₁T₂ = V₂T₁</em>

<em></em>

V₁ = 634.0 L, T₁ = 21.0°C + 273 = 294.0 K.

V₂ = 307.0 L, T₂ = ??? K.

<em>∴ T₂ = V₂T₁/V₁ </em>= (307.0 L)(294.0 K)/(634.0 L) = <em>142.36 K.</em>

<em>∴ T₂(°C) = 142.36 K - 273 = - 130.64°C.</em>

A steel block has a volume of 0.08 m³ and a density of 7,840 kg/m³. What is the force of gravity acting on the block (the weight
melomori [17]

Given:

volume of 0.08 m³

density of 7,840 kg/m³

Required:

force of gravity

Solution:

Find the mass using density equation.

D = M/V

M = DV

M = (7,840 kg/m³)(0.08 m³)

M = 627.2kg

 

F = Mg

F = (627.2kg)(9.8m/s2)

F = 6147N
