Molecular formula of Isoflurane is <span><span>C</span></span>₃H₂ClF₅O.

Now calculate the percent composition by mass, which means percent of each element in the compound.

Mass of Isoflurane = 184.49 g/mol

Mass of carbon in the compound = 3 x 12.011 = 36.033g

Mass of hydrogen in the compound = 2 x 1.008 = 2.016g

Mass of chlorine in the compound = 1 x 35.453 = 35.453 g

Mass of fluorine in the compound = 5 x 18.998 = 94.99g

Mass of Oxygen in the compound = 1 x 16 = 16 g

Carbon’s percentage = Mass of carbon in the compound /mass of isoflurane x 100 =36.033/184.49 x 100 =19.53%

Hydrogen’s Percentage = Mass of hydrogen in the compound/mass of isoflurane x 100 = 2.016/184.49 = 1.09%

Chlorine’s percentage = Mass of chlorine in the compound/mass of isoflurane x 100 = 35.453/184.49 =19.22%

Flourine’s percentage = Mass of fluorine in the compound/mass of isoflurane x 100 = 94.99/184.49 x 100 = 51.49%

Oxygen’s percentage = Mass of Oxygen in the compound/mass of isoflurane x 100 =16/184.49 x 100 = 8.67%

When the following equation is balanced, what is the coefficient for NaNO3?
notka56 [123]

The coefficient for NaNO₃ = 6

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Equalization of chemical reaction equations can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:  

• 1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c etc.  

• 2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index between reactant and product  

• 3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1  

Reaction

AI(NO₃)₃ +Na₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄) + NaNO₃

give coefficient

aAI(NO₃)₃ +bNa₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ +c NaNO₃

Al, left=a, right=2⇒a=2

N, left=3a, right=c⇒3a=c⇒3.2=c⇒c=6

Na, left=2b, right=c⇒2b=c⇒2b=6⇒b=3

The equation becomes :

2AI(NO₃)₃ +3Na₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ +6NaNO₃

How did the surface area of the metal strip expose to the solution affect the
frez [133]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In an electrochemical cell, electricity is obtained by the gradual deterioration of the anode.

Hence, surface area of the metal will affect the length of time within which the electrochemical cell works.

The greater the surface area of the metal, the longer the electrochemical cell can function and the greater the quantity of electricity produced, hence the answer above.

What is the affect of neutrons on atoms
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

It's better to explain it.

Explanation:

Neutrons do not affect the electron configuration, but the sum of atomic number and the number of neutrons, or neutron number, is the mass of the nucleus. You know that neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom. Under normal conditions, protons and neutrons stick together in the nucleus. During radioactive decay, they may be knocked out of there. Neutron numbers are able to change the mass of atoms, because they weigh about as much as a proton and electron together. if your asking What is the role of a neutron in an atom? then, Neutrons are very important in providing stability for an atom. Some atoms don't "need" neutrons - The hydrogen atom does not have any neutrons. However, as the atomic number ( # of protons ) increases, the number of neutrons increases as well.

Protons don't like each other. Naturally, 'positive charges repel', so it wouldn't be possible to have more than one proton in the nucleus. Here's where the neutron comes in.

Hope this helps. :)
